Christmas Living Room 2015

/

Hello, hello! I’m so honored to be a part of the Christmas Room Tour hosted by Chris at Just A Girl! Things are definitely a bit more low-key this year since we have a newborn in the house, but I love decorating for Christmas and I always enjoy getting to peek into beautiful spaces! If you are hopping over from Cassie’s place, welcome! I’m excited to show you our living room that is all decked out for the holidays!

My decorating style is collected, eclectic, layered, imperfect and comfortable. I love for things to tell a story…so here is our living room. If you’re looking for perfection, you better click away now. You’ve been warned. 😉

The Duncan Phyfe sofa was Memaw’s. I need to get it re-upholstered, but part of me wants to just leave it as it is.

I really enjoy decorating with fresh greenery. It’s a pretty good deal to buy a fresh garland and then cut it up to use all over the house.

I bought new chairs for the living room earlier this year. I LOVE them so much. Now I just need to finish the rest of the furniture. Since I’m not pregnant any more, maybe I will have more energy to get things done. The tree is a collection of handmade vintage ornaments and various textures, patterns and shapes. My little people help rearrange the ornaments near the bottom. 😉

I decorated my “faux buffet” with fresh greenery, a plaid wreath I made a couple of years ago and a cute little reindeer I found at a local shop.

Memaw’s old NOEL sign makes me smile. It wouldn’t feel like Christmas without it hanging up somewhere.Christmas Living Room 2015 | MyBlessedLife.net

We are planning a remodel to finish up projects that we’ve started and haven’t finished yet. 2016 is going to be a fun year of a lot of updates! This room is getting new windows, crown molding and baseboards for starters! 😉Christmas Living Room 2015 | MyBlessedLife.net

If you’ve been reading my blog, you know I have a thing for plaid. When I saw this Thermos case at an antique store a few weeks ago I knew it had to come home with me. Isn’t it so cool?! Christmas Living Room 2015 | MyBlessedLife.net

Kid friendly coffee table decor = shatterproof ornaments.

This room makes me so happy. It’s not about the stuff (although I do love pretty things!), but I love the wonderful memories that have been made in this room over the years.

    Secondly I love all your fun decor. The red tool box. The lantern looks great. So much and it ties together so well. I’m impressed you have your house decorated!!!! Blessings this year

  6. First of all, I would like to congratulate you on the birth of your little Nora Aegean Line. Beautiful room Get to know your family and the guests are having a lot of fun. I really liked the selection style and all the things you added to your design. Very high!

  7. The sound gets really bad every 6 minted on the dot and I have to pause and unpause the music playback to fix the sound issues. It has access to phone data when you connect and you do not have control over what device captures from your phone and sends back to China. after I received the unit, it did not work. then they said it doesn’t work with my vehicle.
