I've been so excited to share our Christmas mantle this year! It's been decorated since before Thanksgiving (yes, I am one of those people)!
I decided to go with a more neutral theme and I love the way it turned out.
I guess you can call it "Rustic Country". ;)
I made the Burlap stockings and just cut out some cardstock for the initial tags. I saw some at Pottery Barn and thought they were so cute. The cute reindeer on the right is from Pier 1 and the stocking holders are from Target.
The greenery is just leftover Christmas tree branches I cut off from the bottom.
The hurricanes are filled with snowflake ornaments from Dollar Tree and silver ornaments from Target.
Got these little reindeer from Goodwill. They were $4 for both. I am thinking I may spraypaint them silver and cover them in glitter. Because glitter makes everything better..dontcha think? We will see..
A few festive Christmas pillows...I am planning on putting all of our Christmas cards on the window.. :) Christmas cards are one of the best things about the season, if you ask me.
I made this pillow out of Burlap (can't you tell I love this stuff?) and stamped the word Believe on it.
This one is made from a placemat from Target! $2.00! I just opened up a little corner with a seam ripper and stuffed it with pillow foam! Easy peasy! And then there is my sweater pillow in the right corner. That one cost me less than $2.00.
And there you have it! Our Christmas filled living room. I love it. When I get up in the morning, the first thing I do is turn on the tree!
It's the best time of the year!
Xoxo,
You inspire me! You ooze creativity!

ReplyDeleteHi Kait,
ReplyDeleteYour mantel looks so festive -- I love those burlap stockings with the initial tags. What a great idea; very creative. Your tree looks so pretty; I love decorating our Christmas tree. I'm really impressed with the cushions you made. I'd never thought of using a place mat before, and yours turned out great! Thanks for the ideas.
I'm a North Carolina blogger, too. You're the second NC blogger I've met this week. We're in the Piedmont area of the state. Check out my blog if you get a chance.
Hope you have a blessed Christmas season!
