 Ever since I first got married my grandma had started me on decorating my house for every holiday.
Now don't get me wrong I totally love Pinterest, but before there was such a thing you had to come up with ideas on your own. 
Also remember reading Women s World at my grandma's and loving their cooking ideas and such!



I have been decorating for 6 years now and just LOVE it! I get so excited when the next holiday comes around and dig out my bins from the garage and go to town. Normally staying up all hours of the night because I'm on a roll and don't want to stop. Anyone been there?!

My new thing this last year was decorating a little tree for every holiday. I had never seen anyone do it in their homes around here, but loved seeing them on blogs or when I would past those little shops and see their holiday trees in the display window. 


              (My Thanksgiving and Kitchen Zebra tree last year,)

Right now I've been working on my Valentines Day one. I didn't want anything related to Christmas on it to make it look least like a Christmas tree.  I went with the colors and designs of my mantle decor. Hounds-tooth  Damask  Red, White, Pink, and Black. I decided to take all my felt I had lying around the house , lace, ribbon, and my big bin of buttons and make little heart ornaments. 




They turned out cute and best of all cost me nothing!





 I'll post pictures soon of my little tree and  Valentines Day mantle. Just finishing up the last touches. 
Happy Sunday!!

  1. I just bumped into your blog via Pinterest. I've enjoyed scrolling through looking at pictures. I will definitely be back...probably to steal some of your decorating ideas. :O)
