Coffee-colored Christmas reveal...

Grab yourself some cookies...
...'cause here are the pics from the big deco job from yesterday.

So, there is so much to post, including the kitchen reveal, but alas, I am posting coffee-colored Christmas. I did indeed spend 8 hours cleaning and decorating various rooms under the influence of one...eggnog latte. Love.
Below is the display from our bedroom sofa table. I love our new print by Sarah Faulkner. We got it at the Woolworth Walk while down in Asheville, NC. The folksy ribbon is actually webbing for chairs. I bought it for pennies at WalMart. I love it.

Detour back to the main room....home-made puff.


buffett display - notice new wainscott


buffett display - no flash, much more true to life



view from kitchen door by tv


Tried to use natural, light colored, inexpensive items. I snuggled the candles in barely that I bought in bulk at Whole Foods.


Below is one of my little wreaths on the tree. These make fantastic napkin holders, too.

Coffee table and tree.


Behind the couch ...


Used some sprigs from our tree. I finally got to pull out my giant spools from England which I got at REfind - an awesome consignment shop that just opened up. I love it. I just bought Betty there. I will introduce you to Betty (our new tv stand in the bedroom) and Ralph (our bed from the trash) on another day.


aaahhhhh...my beside table - soooo Christmasy



Brent's bedside table - notice matching Starbucks ornaments.


On a final note...if you are decorating with 'natural elements' (ie barley rice, beans, coffee beans, etc.) make sure that bear like creatures cannot forage through your decorations and eat them.
