| I really try not to buy any new decorations until we unpack everything from the years prior. This year it was really hard, I think maybe because I am feeling the Christmas Spirit earlier then usual. This will be our 3rd Christmas in our home, but our first as a married couple. We have accumulated some decorations in the 3 years, I really try to stick with snowmen and the winter theme instead of Santas, reindeer, and Christmas trees. I feel that this makes the decorations last longer as in I don't get tired of them as fast and they can stay up until the snow is leaving. |

| Here is a close up of our tree, I added ice cover sticks to give the tree more character. |
I just used a 50% off at Michael's and bought a small bunch of the sticks and then broke them up and placed them in the tree randomly.

The star was a Good Will find, it was gold, we just spray painted it to match our home better.
The tree skirt is just burlap, it's about a 7ft by 3ft and I just wrapped it around the stand. Easy and very inexpensive!! |

The snowmen on the shelf are a Good Will find that I just cleaned up and add some fabric for their scarves.
Adding a little greenery around a candle gives the winter look without adding too much to the foyer table, same with in the floor vase, I just added some holiday berries. |
