A Tour For Christmas

I always think it's fun to see how other people decorate their homes for Christmas.  Everyone's home is at it's most beautiful at Christmastime, isn't it?  Everything is warm and cozy and bright.  It's a chance to get some ideas and soak in all the sparkle of the season.

After seeing the tour on this blog, I thought I'd do a quick Christmas tour of our home too!  We don't decorate every room for Christmas, but many of our rooms have one or two Christmasy touches.  Not pictured - the kids' little Christmas trees, and the bathrooms.  Their rooms were too messy, and I didn't feel like cleaning them before taking these photos, and who really wants to see pictures of the bathroom anyway?  On to the photos!

Living Room

We have alot of greens and blues in our living room, so our living room tree has alot of green, blue, and brown ornaments, along with white!  We got new tree lights this year that switch from colorful to white, but I like them on the colorful setting best.

Kitchen And School Room

I don't decorate very much in the kitchen or school room, just a table centerpiece, a wreath on the door, and our Thanksgiving-turned-Christmas birch tree.  And incidental gingerbread houses.

Front Room/Playroom

The front room (and the master bedroom) have mostly blue-colored furniture/walls, so this is where I bring in the touches of red!

Master Bedroom

I found a few Christmas throw pillows that I loved right after we moved here a few years ago, so now I bring them out each Christmas to add a little bit of Christmas to our room.  We also have white lights stringed around the top of the walls in our room, but it's hard to get them in photos.  I'm contemplating adding a little tree in our room too, but I'm trying to decide if that's too many decorations for me to manage!  

And that's it for the Christmas tour!  If you came over to my house for a Christmas party, it would look like this, with a few kid shoes and toys and books thrown around for good measure.  If you share any Christmas decorations on your blog, let me know!  I want to see!
