Have you had enough Holiday home tours yet in blogger-land?
I hope not. Don’t worry mine is short and sweet. With a treat at the end.
I was in bed sick alllll weekend long so I didn't get to finish taking all of my photos.
So this will be more like the nickel tour today!
Hurry in...it's snowing!
I took off all the ugly bows and ribbons, spritzed the wreath with some gold spray paint for some pizzaz. Then I hot glued some ornaments from the dollar store, and smack a big sparkly gold "N" on it to finish it off. I love it.
When you come in the front door you will immediately see another rescued wreath from the same estate sale box-o-greenery.
This one got spritzed of white spray paint and real pinecones hot glued on there. I needed a little something else, so I made some rosettes out of scraps of lace. I like this one so much I think I will use it for my front door wreath after Christmas.
After you walk in the entry you see our beautiful tree. She
is new this year. Last year we had a real tree. Which we LOVED. We would have
gotten another real tree this year....
But this one came unexpected to us in July. My Aunt and my parents got it for me at a moving sale, get this...for: $3.

Here is a better shot of our front door wreath. I rescued it from an estate sale in a big box of wreaths and garland for 50 cents. Watch and see how far this box of greenery takes us this Christmas..

That is not a typo. $3, 10-foot tree. Pre-lit. With the stand
and everything. We are lucky ducks. It fits the spot next to our fireplace
perfect.
And next, our mantel.
And next, our mantel.
I used garland from the same estate sale box as the wreaths. Luckily this was still in the original packaging. I didn't need to rip anything off.
I took it outside and gave this a spritz of white to match the snowy look on our tree. It took about 5 minutes of random spritzing.
The Noel sign was a craft night project. I just cut the boxes and stenciled right onto the burlap. The hard part was stringing the twine through the burlap. The trick was tweezers!

Our dining room is festive too.
On top of my china cabinet sits my lantern collection. They are now surrounded by few mini trees. Also from…you guessed it, the box of estate sale greenery. They too got some white spray paint spritzes to freshen them up and match the other greenery in the house.
The believe banner was made at craft night too. So easy!
These trees will hold our holiday cards as we get them through the next few weeks. It's an easy way to display them. I didn't even put hooks in them, just perched them in the tree branches.
Thank you for visiting!
