The 25 Days of Christmas 22 Days of Christmas continues with our house tour! We are far from the Griswolds, but we certainly like to bring a little holiday spirit into each and every room.
In the entryway lives our Home Alone inspired shabby-crooked Christmas tree from the tree farm. I seriously love this little guy. The number one quality that I look for in a tree is always the shortest, fattest one with the most disproportionately, tall top branch!
Please disregard the ugly, invisible tree skirt.
Every year, I debate back and forth about whether to have a colorful tree or keep it simple with white lights and classic, woodsy ornaments. So this year, we did both!
We opted for a cheap & easy pine garland for the top of the mantle... made purely from our tree trimmings! :)
We even decked out our bedroom. Our room is far from complete, I still have no idea what to put above it (a canvas maybe?) and we definitely need new nightstands & window treatments.
Brandon told me the other night that our bed looks like a sleigh... hell yes.
And last but not least, one of my favorite rooms in the house, the playroom! We spend a lot of our time in here & hope to continue making it a super fun, whimsical place for Harper to play.
My favorite part? Harper's new teepee! I have been on the hunt for one forever & finally discovered Moozle Home, the most perfect teepee ever! We added a blanket inside, some fairy lights & another one of our favorite felt garlands.... seriously I want to live in here. It reminds me so much of the movie, The Holiday! :)
The chalkboard wall had to get a little bit festive too!
And of course, your daily dose of munchkin.

ReplyDeleteOK SERIOUSLY how to you find and come up with all of this amazingness? That teepee is so so so cute. I love how you incorporate Christmas into every room! Your house/decor/family are all so beautiful! <3
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get the little basket on your kitchen table? So cute and functional! I've been looking for something like that!
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures of Harper. Your Christmas stuff looks great,when we hit over the age of thirteen the Christmas things aren't like the use to be even though we have the nieces and now nephew that have a Christmas here( the younger niece *She is five* that it was called Meah Christmas). The bed does look like a sleigh.
ReplyDeleteXo
Your house looks amazing!!! OMG, are Harpers toes polished? LOL, I love it. I really love your chalkboards. I wish I could do that. I have no talent what so ever....lol.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your house, your bed, and your chalkboard art!
ReplyDeleteHarper is so cute today!! That santa pillow in the playroom is seriously cool!
ReplyDeleteOh. My. Goodness. I LOVE your house!! And how do you keep it so clean?!?! My favorite part is the teepee! I've been looking for one since my daughter was born!
ReplyDeleteOk, so I should look at this post every morning and maybe my house would be neater?!?! So jealous! Cleaning up around her with an almost 3 year old seems to backfire....every 17 minutes! Looks fantastic!!! Great job!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to decorate your bed! I would have never thought of that. I love how you brought Christmas to every room.
ReplyDeleteMy chalkboard art never comes out nice and clean looking! Are you using the chalkboard markers?

ReplyDeleteYour house is amazing!! I am loving the lights around the chalkboard. You should write/create a holiday decorating book!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Especially love the teepee - EXACTLY like the Holiday. Sigh. I've been looking for a teepee for our nursery, and this one is just perfect. Beautiful home!
ReplyDeleteYour house looks awesome! I love your picture of your bed looks like it's smiling :-) Eyes are the pillow, wreath is the nose and the bench is the smile.
ReplyDeleteThe teepee is so fun! And i love how u decorated the chalkboard.
ReplyDeleteI really like that you don't have a lot of furniture and still the house looks awesome with the all the decor!
ReplyDeleteIn love with the playroom!! Definitely want a teepee for E one day!!
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL home!
ReplyDeleteI love your playroom!! That is such a good idea and I'm sure Harper loves her teepee. x
ReplyDeleteLooks so great! We are in the midst of moving so Christmas will be spent at the in laws, can't wait to do it up in our new home next year... and also set up a tee pee in our playroom, now that we'll have one!

I have been having the same problem with our bedroom! There is blank space above our bed and I cannot decide what to put there. I feel like a big piece of art would look best - but then it could set the tone for the rest of the room and I'm not sure if I'm okay with that. Decisions, decisions!

ReplyDeleteLove.It.All!! Merry Christmas!! :)
ReplyDeleteWHAT is in the little door in Harper's playroom?! You could totally make that into some crazy cool play space for her when she's a wee bit older!
ReplyDeleteYour house is so festive! Where did you get the Santa pillow in the playroom? Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteOmg!!! I've been checking every morning to see if you had a new post up!!! Yay!!!! I discovered your blog maybe 5 months ago and fell in love with it and have recently discovered I'm pregnant and am so unbelievably clucky hearing about your beautiful family! You're the kind of mum that I want to be!!!! Thank you so much for your blog!!!! Your house is gorgeous and Harper is beautiful! (And the best dressed little girl EVER!!!!)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas from New Zealand!!!!
omg! love the teepee and I've been looking everywhere for one for my little man and almost was going to make one, so thanks for the Etsy info. We couldn't figure out forever what to put over our bed but ended up hanging a beautiful handwoven rug from Afghanistan when we visited and we love it. Make our room feel really cozy.
ReplyDeleteI love Harper's teepee. I have been looking for the perfect one as well. I'll have to keep this one in mind.
ReplyDeletei love decorating for christmas but our house is on the smaller side so its hard. Im totally jealous of your gorgeous house and all the decorations!!!
ReplyDeletethe sweet life of a southern wife
Love, love, love all your Christmas decorations! that teepee is to die for too! I had one when I was little and they totally rock!!
ReplyDeleteHave you ever thought about doing like a time lapse video of you drawing on the chalkboards? I would love to see your process and time lapse videos are totally awesome!
Your house looks so beautiful! We are currently deciding where we are going to build... Makes me so excited to decorate next year! (decorating a town home isn't nearly as fun ;))
ReplyDeleteps. like I said on instagram, LOVE the tp. Harper's playroom is amazing!
honestly if you lived closer, i would totally pay you to help decorate my house! your place is the cutest ever
ReplyDeleteLovely! Maybe over the bed, you could do three large canvas prints (or three large frames that you could swap out the pics in). A trio of places you've lived/fallen in love/spent time together/visited, etc. makes a nice memory wall!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Great job ; )
ReplyDeleteBeautiful home! I've been trying to neutralize mine like yours for what seems like forever. I love the black, whites, creams and natural textures...just beautiful! And the chalkboards, don't even get me started! One question, where did you get that awesome caddy on your kitchen table? It's perfect! Thanks for sharing your space :)
ReplyDeleteCan you do a post, or include in something, on the paint colors in your house?? Love the soft, neutrals!
ReplyDeleteI just have to say you have the most gorgeous home! So many beautiful ideas and decorations. Love the chalkboards! I'm going to have to make some of those for our house!
ReplyDeleteHi!! What are the cute little goodies around your coffee machine? They look fun :o) thanks sister!!
ReplyDeleteLOVED the North Pole sign so much that I used it on one of my chalkboard wine bottles. I posted it on my blog and linked it back to you- you are seriously a chalkboard inspiration! Thanks lady!!
ReplyDeletei just need to say that your house is my dream home. i absolutely love the set up of the kitchen, living room and eat in kitchen! I enjoy all your decorations too!! :D
