Style Inspiration: Christmas Home Decor

The time is upon us,

I can officially decorate free of judgement.

I think all the holidays have passed 

that place strict regulations 

on when it is socially acceptable to 

dig out my Christmas bins and throw tinsel

around the house.

We still have little people in our home

that like to walk around with

decorations.

So for now,

the breakables go up high

and the plastic and wood stays low. 

We only lost one tealight holder

to the fall this year.

Our tree is a big and beautiful one

that was passed down to us from my parents

who replaced their tree for a smaller version.

It is lovely,

it is full and it is large.

The decorations that adorn it

are eclectic, to say the least.

Some Baby's First Christmas

from both my husband, our kids and myself.

Some vintage crafts circa the early 1990's

that our mothers passed along to us.

We also have some beautiful pieces,

the ones that only Mommy handles and go out of reach.

There are some pieces

that hold dear memories for Spencer and I.

His, a small golden fire truck he 

picked out with his grandmother as a child.

Mine, a small porcelain puppy with a red handkerchief

that I hung on our tree as a small child.

In the evening,

I love to sit and look

at the glowing tree and think about

all the memories that go along with each ornament.

Our tree would not be displayed in a department store,

but to me it is most beautiful.

For now I save the gorgeous,

glamorous Christmas decorations for my Pinterest boards!

Here is some holiday inspiration

that I simply love.
