christmas decorating time!

The tree is up, the mantle almost decorated, so here is some of what I've done. I still need to add more greenery, but it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

The kitchen tree. A small tree with primitive lights, dried cranberries, with a primitive wooden bowl of dried oranges, orange slices, gingerbread cookies, and cinnamon sticks

More of the kitchen...

More of the kitchen window...I need more greens here

A vintage stocking with a 1950's Christmas postcard

Our tree with a starfish on top!

The mantle not really done and I guess this picture is a bit crooked! lol!
Oops!  This mantle used to be stained, but I just painted it white.

On the way out the door? Grand Central Station clock with a wreath and some boxwood with a bow. 

Have a great day decorating! ;)
