There is some red this year at oldgreymare.
I adore these House of Hatten ornaments -
the Twelve Days of Christmas and more.
I used a few last year in the den, but this year I did the large tree,
and added more figures throughout the room.
The vintage green wagon in front will be loaded with gifts.
There are whites everywhere else.
With burlaps and browns,
creams and whites,
touches of snow and glitter.
Pinecones, more snow, angels, birds...
reflections, candlelight...
tis the season...
happy happy joy joy
Dearest son Ben will be home for Thanksgiving.
Making his famous stuffing he says.
Mama happy.

So beautiful!!! Like stepping into a winter wonderland, Z!

Hope yours is wonderful!

Beautiful, lovely room displays! Very welcoming!
I am going to be a naughty Santa and sneak into your house, drop off packages into that wagon and on my way out steal all of those fabulous mixing bowls!! GAH!! Love them!
Loving the wagon idea.....gonna steal it!!! Everything is so beautiful!!!
This is how I would dearly love to have my house decorated. You have done a superb job.
Sit back and enjoy the holidays

Oh so beautiful! Love all those colors myself.The Tree is fabulous and I love the Star!
Stuffing is my favorite! Why I don't make it more often I simply do not know.You must share your Son's famous Stuffing.Do enjoy~Cheers Kim
Oh, I'm glad Ben is getting home for Thanksgiving - yay!
I have on my to-do list to figure out how to shape my carpenters ruler into a star like that. Please show a close-up of the topper on the red tree. It looks like it might be Santa on the moon but I can't quite make it out.
Your home is just lovely and you are inspiring me to get my decorating started early this year. It is my habit, left over from when my children were small, to wait until the 10th to put up the tree so the excitement was more "condensed" and didn't escalate into stomach aches. I don't know why it hasn't occured to me that I don't have any reason to wait anymore. If I'm going to the trouble then why not enjoy it longer!
Hi Z....beautiful, looks so magical........gotta love this time of year....happy your Son is home making the stuffing, that's what it's Ll about, Enjoy Francine.
Everything looks just beautiful, Z! Very sweet and cozy. The reds are a little muted and I love that.
I'm so happy your son is coming home...he's in for a warm welcome!
XO,
Jane

I feel like you did it all for me. Beautiful decorations and decorating. Our house has a light living room and a dark (paneled) living room so I get to be colorful in one room and white & silver in another. Then there is the tree in the kitchen and ... I love this time of year. Thanks for sharing your work with us. I am noticing your walls - have you posted on them (can't help but notice they aren't builders' white).
Dear Suz, everything looks so beautiful, warm and cozy...as it should be...I think,I may have one of the same House of Hatten elves!! So happy to hear your son will be home with you this week, revel in the happiness!! N.xo
I thought I loved the red tree best, until I saw this one... you make me want to go out and get a tree for every room! I'm inspired, and awed...
