Christmas, Christmas Everywhere!

Here are the promised pictures of our Christmas decor...  Please let me know if you have any questions about how we made it or where we got it!

 DIY Felt Christmas Trees - instructions on how to make these cuties can be found {here}

DIY Manger - my sweet parents made this one, we add a little bit of hay every day in preparation for Baby Jesus

 Bowl full of extra ornaments - a quick and inexpensive dash of holiday glam

 Wreath on the Wall - we took down the large clock over our couch and hung this for a festive touch

 Mercury Glass Owl from West Elm - 50% of proceeds go to St. Jude's!

Sparkling Tree and My Favorite Snowflake Pillow

 No Chimney for Stockings?  Hang 'Em on the Wall! - we used temporary 3M hooks

 Vintage Ceramic Light-Up Tree - passed down from my hubby's grandmother

Our Willow Tree Nativity - with quite the fitting backdrop of our world map, if I do say so myself...

What are your favorite Christmas decorations?  Any special decorating traditions that are unique to your family?

Sidebar: This Christmas has been dubbed the "Super Glue Christmas" because there has been no shortage of gluing Christmas decorations back together...oh, life with a 2-year-old!  (See the lambs in the nativity above...one lost a leg, the other lost an ear, all within one day...)

  1. I saw an owl JUST like that at Marshall's. I picked him up, carried him around, put him down. Picked him up, carried him around, put him down. Alas, he did not come home with me. Now I'm kicking myself.
    I love, love, love the vintage tree.
