It’s All in the Details – Christmas

December 5, 2017  Christmas | Uncategorized

In this hectic holiday season, it’s nice to slow down and take my time and I’ve been adding simple Christmas decorating touches around my house since I shared my Christmas Home Tour.

Why should Christmas trees have all the fun. Add some garland and ornaments to your everyday plants.

Simple Christmas decorating ideas - love the garland and ornaments in these everyday plants kellyelko.com

Sushi’s hat fits this old brass elephant perfectly!

Gift wrap, ribbons and tags are so fun to display before the wrapping frenzy gets underway.

Add a wreath somewhere unexpected.

Our elf Hot Tamale has some great Elf on the Shelf ideas HERE.

Sushi is waiting impatiently to rip apart her Christmas gift.

Tuck little bits of Christmas on bookshelves.

I love displaying these fun photo props so they are handy when friends and family stop by.

Turn a fall display into a Christmas one by adding a few bottle brush trees.

Thrift store finds like this pair of vintage tobacco tins are always fun to display.

Lights – I put them on everything!

Chair backs get a pop of color.

Even my fiddle leaf fig is lit.

Sushi is ready for her close up and she’s my best Christmas accessory all decked out in her Nice hat (the reverse says Naughty)!

I realize I’ve become that crazy dog lady.

But Santa, I can explain.

Join me as I decorate my 100 year old home, scour thrift stores, create pretty things, putter in my peony and hydrangea filled garden, and mix up a mean cocktail all with a touch of sarcasm and a side of bacon - Cheers!
