Christmas Decor/house tour!


Hey everyone! I hope y'all are having a wonderful Wednesday afternoon! I watched emilynoel83 (aka Emily Eddington) in her recent "Holiday House Tour" video, and I got inspired to do a blog post on my Christmas decorations and just an overall tour of my house all decked out in Christmas decor :)

So lets get started:



First, this is my bedroom/makeup room and I recently re-designed my room to be more "college age" appropriate :) anyways, my walls are a turquoise color and I found this mini Christmas tree at Target. I just thought it was so cute and the best part is its turquoise!!! :D


So I just sat the Christmas tree on top of my vanity and I think it adds some color to this side of my room because this wall is a beige color and the other 3 walls are the turquoise color :)


Here's what it looks like:



Next, as you come out the door of my room you see my big Christmas tree in my living room. Now this tree my parents had gotten a few years ago when they had decided that a fake tree was best for our house because we didn't want to keep cleaning up all the little pine needles that kept dropping on the ground. Plus, my animals specifically my cat liked to play in the water basin that we would sit the tree in :) Anyways, heres a picture of the big tree:




Next, as you go around the couch to the front door, you can see another mini Christmas tree sitting beside the end table:


This tree was actually given to me when I was in the hospital on Christmas last year by one of my bosses at work and we thought we would go ahead and pull it out for this Christmas :)

Anyways, next as you walk out of the living room, you come into the kitchen and the first thing that catches my eye is this jar on my kitchen table that my mom has put those glittery ball ornaments inside it :)




Now in my kitchen window overlooking my backyard, we have our nativity scene set up with some real Christmas tree clippings and mini candles around it, as well as the cross :)




Above my stove, my mom has also put some garland up on top of my cabinets :)




I almost forgot to mention, as you look downstairs you see yet another string of garland, Advent candles and ribbon that my mom has put up :)




Next, as you walk down my hallway from the kitchen, we put a hope chest in the middle with candles, beads and a red cloth on top :) as well as another mini Christmas tree! (in total, scattered around the house, we have a total of 6 mini Christmas trees)



Finally, as you walk down the hallway into my bathroom, we put a big red candle holder on top of the counter as well as some real Christmas tree clippings :)




Next to that counter above my sink, we have put a couple candles and some more beads on the ledge of the mirror :)





Well, I think thats it for my Christmas decor/house tour! I hope y'all enjoyed this and I would love to see what your house looks like all decorated for Christmas! Have a great rest of the day everyone and I'll be blogging again soon! :)
