My style for Christmas is more on the rustic side. As you saw from my mantle, I also like a little sparkle! Usually I keep the sparkle in the dining room but since it is going thru some changes, I tried it on the mantle this year. My decorating consists mostly of pine cones, greenery, Santas, deers, nutcrackers and snowmen. This is my "shabby" white cabinet with some of my favorite Holiday decorations.
One of my favorite Xmas photos of the kids when they were small.
Aaron, my AF boy, will be home on Thursday, gets in from Afganistan tomorow!

These little elves my Mom used to put out at Xmas (way) back in the 60's
My $1.00 tin box from the Watertown yardsale
I got this little primitive Santa at an estate sale here in town a few years ago for $5.00
This deer family I got years ago when my oldest was about the size he is in the above photo, on our way back to NC from visiting the grandparents in GA, we stopped at a outlet mall and he saw them and had to have them, I think the set was around $5.00
My sister got me this for Christmas last year

Everything looks so warm and cheerful. I like the way you do up your white cabinet for season and holidays. I'm in love with the deer family. I seem to be developing a deer obsession.

RED HAT
Red hat, I am lonesome.
Red hat, are you free?
Red hat, please consider
Coming home with me.
I need a companion,
One who’ll warm my head;
I think you’ll do nicely,
Hat of brilliant red.
You’re the warmest color,
Not like blue or green—
Red hat at the vendor’s,
Red hat, you’re my queen.

Your decorations are just charming! I especially like the pinecone elves...what cuties!
I am glad to hear your son will be home for Christmas. It was one of the best Christmas we ever had when my daughter came home from Baghdad. Your rustic decorations look great on your cabinet.
Such cute Christmas decor. I love the little deer but my favorite is the darling sled.
I'm with you on the rustic style of decorations...my mother came over (she's 86) and said "I feel like I've stepped into a Country Living Magazine"....I felt so complimented..."smile"....Merry Christmas...tomorrow is my Christmas Shop Yard Sale....by the way....I like your fishing bag basket on your mantel...I'm looking for one that's reasonable...next year....lol...Mel's Designs
