Have you all been following along with all the amazing Christmas Tours ~ I've already
started a collection of ideas for next year! As promised I'm back with the rest our
Christmas tour, if you missed Part 1 our Living & Dining Room tour is
here.
Today I'll be sharing our Family Room and Kitchen.
a beautiful job, this year her stunning tree is one of my favs!
she was one of the very first blogs I read, I would've never dreamed I'd be on a home tour
with her and I can't wait to pop over and see what she has for us!
Thank you to the lovely ladies hosting the 12 Days of Holiday Homes!!

decor these days and foregoing all the stuff in lieu of mostly fresh greens from
our yard and a few special items. I like to keep the colors cohesive throughout
the rooms and added a few larger blush colored ornaments to our tree.
I loved the colors in this pillow from HomeGoods and gave in to my addiction.
How could I not, look how perfect it is with the floral artwork I found thrifting a
couple years ago. I'm not sure if I ever mentioned it, but my friend and I were at
an antique store and came across a pair of huge brass lamps, and we each took one.
The oversized pinecones are from a fun vacation in Lake Tahoe, I filled my suitcase.
I added eucalyptus to the garland on on our mantel this year.
I made the fur trimmed stockings a few years ago because we needed some that were
larger ~ we love our stocking tradition! Santa always spoiled us with all kinds of fun surprises
when I was growing up, and the tradition continues.
Did you guys notice my BIG mirror was missing from my living room tour?
I (not really me!) moved it to our family room and love it.

I couldn't be more impressed! I'd never ordered a wreath before, only purchased them
from a big box store, but I'm sold. It's full, lush and so fresh!
I've had it on my hood for two and a half weeks and it's just as fresh as the day it was
delivered. It would be a wonderful gift!
I accidentally spritzed mine with cleaning solution instead of water one day
(actually the only day I spritzed) :( So, the bay leaves on the bottom left are a tad
wilted - 100% my fault! I felt so badly that I wasn't going to represent their gorgeous
wreath well that I tried to find replacement bay leaf sprigs - no luck, so I'm
I was afraid you'd notice! I truly love it, thank you!
This simple corner has my grandma's vintage ornaments and the framed needlepoint
florals were done by Mr. Simple's grandma.
I like keeping a few essentials corralled on this brass tray on our counter, and added
some striped wrapping and a floral pick to a candle to give it a festive touch.
My sweet girl, Rio!
