I take pictures every year so I know what I did the year before . Usually, I keep everything the same but sometimes I'll change something up - add new ribbon or change up a pillow or throw in something that I made.
Let's go inside...
I have a small entryway that I'm very thankful for. It is where we can come in, take off our shoes, and hang up our coats.
Here's the bench I change for the seasons...
Last year I added this pillow I made. This year I made this snowman out of a white terry cloth towel. I love the way he turned out...
I hang a few ornaments and change the items on the shelf, I also change out the wall hangings although I'm trying to find something different for the walls. Searching thrift stores is so much fun...
A few things added here and there...
I love hutches, I think I have at least one in every room. I painted this one black last year. I always decorate it for the holidays but it is also practical storing scarves, hats and gloves...
Most items I have had for years, like these santas...
or these miniatures I found at a craft show years ago...
I have also had this charming tails ( which I collect ) nativity for years...
but there are a few new ( to me )things, like these vintage carolers I found at the thrift store and the tree cookie jar from a yard sale...
or this tree candle again from the thrift store and this Pioneer Woman pitcher from facebook marketplace....
I also do the railing to downstairs and put a wreath on the pantry door...
Decorating doesn't have to cost a lot of money, as you can see most things I get from thrift stores or yard sales, searching (shopping) is half the fun! It's also a time to clean, I move and dust everything before I put it up. This entry greets me and my guests when I enter and makes me happy. What do you see when you enter your house?
