Instead of putting up the big tree this year, we decided to get a cute little four-footer (no lights, unfortunately) at Menards yesterday, so a tree has gone up in our house!
It's not a Christmas tree without this ornament, a gift from my Aunt Rose long ago.
I stole this lighted wire gift box idea from an art display I saw a couple of weeks ago. I've had those boxes forever but wasn't sure what to do with them.
The side table by the window. (Yes, my living room walls are bright blue and mustard. And the couch is red. I like color in my home!)
My husband's stocking. Mine is Tweety Bird.
I think this was my husband's grandmothers. We had a couple in my house growing up too, but I think they are long gone.
My cats love to sleep under the tree every year, but since this one is on a small table they've been denied. So now they are sleeping under the table. I am going to get a large soft tree skirt and put it under for them; I'll take photos of it tonight.
