I Will Honour Christmas In My Heart

I will honour Christmas in my heart,
and try to keep it all the year.
I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future.
The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me.
I will not shut out the lessons that they teach!

Christmas in the Craft Room Part 1, Christmas Home Tour 2015


Next up on our Christmas Home Tour is the Craft Room.......

I have not had the chance to decorate this room for Christmas for the past 2 years.
 
 I was especially thrilled to be able to do so this year because I had bought some new things on Clearance after Christmas over the last few years and could not wait to see how it all came together in this room.......

I am going to share this room in 2 posts with this being the first one featuring my Craft Room Christmas Tree!

I keep a Tree up in this room year round.

You may remember my Craft Room Summer Tree that I decorate with Tea cups, Roses, Ice Cream cones and Butterflies...
 Click HERE to see that post.

This is what my Craft room looks like normally.......

Here is the Tree all decked out for Christmas!!
 This is Tree # 4.........
I decided to decorate it in a Pink, Green and White color scheme to match the colors of the room.....
I bought this tree at a flea market and it is the perfect size for this room.....
I really like how it came out!!
 Feathers and a bow made out of pink and white striped ribbon top this Tree......
 And a pretty pink Santa Head......
 I have tucked pink velvet poinsettias into the Tree to add a bit of fullness......
 There is white beaded teardrop garland on this Tree....
 And a LOT of ornaments that I have collected over 30 + years........
 Many are in the Victorian style are hard to find nowadays!!
 The green glitter ones like the snowflakes and birds were bought last year at Target and Big Lots.....
 As were the pink and green ball ornaments.......
 The pink fairy one on the left is a childhood ornament of mine and the one on the right , I made using those boxes that you get when you buy a piece of jewelry.
 Notice that there is pink and gold glitter on some of the tops of the pink ball ornaments......
 I just painted the top with some glue and sprinkled glitter on to add a bit of glam to them!!
 You may remember when I also dabbled a bit with the snow flake ornaments......
If you missed that post, please click HERE
 At the base of the Tree.......
 Is a  Ice Skate Planter( that I bought at  The Christmas Tree Shop a few years ago), filled with pink and white poinsettias......
 I added the pink glitter and white fur to the skates!!

And 2 friends, sitting on a bench!!
 I took some photos of the tree lit in the day time with the sun streaming through the window.
 I used the candlelight mode on my camera.......


 I thought they came out looking rather interesting!

As I mentioned, this is Tree # 4, one of 7 Trees upstairs!
If you missed Christmas in the Master Bedroom, please click HERE ,where I shared Trees # 1 and 2.......

Tree #1
  And Tree #2......

Christmas in the Upstairs Bathroom, Christmas Home Tour 2015

In my last post, I originally mentioned that I would be sharing the Guest Room as the next post on our Christmas Home Tour for 2015.

I lied!!

 No, I just did not have the time to get that post ready since I worked 3 nights in a row this week while getting ready for Thanksgiving dinner.....

So I am sharing the Upstairs Bathroom decorated for Christmas next on the Tour instead.......

Yes, I decorate my Bathrooms and yes, there are Trees in each bathroom.......

I also say that our bathroom upstairs is the smallest bathroom known to man........

It is smaller than our Powder Room downstairs!!

This does not give me much space but there is enough room on this shelf unit above the toilet to fit a Tree!!
 This is what it looked like before.......
And here it is now decorated for Christmas!
It is very hard to take pictures in this small room......

Let me turn the light off......
I have 2 sets of purple LED battery operated lights on the Tree......
I decorated the Tree, which is Tree #3, with purple, gold and green ornaments......
And tucked some gold poinsettias into the Tree....
I like to use bows as Toppers for Trees........
I made the bow and streamers out of a pretty gold ribbon that has purple roses and green leaves on it!
All the ornaments were bought on Clearance after Christmas a few years ago......
This tree, which I bought at a Flea Market, fits nicely on the top of this shelf unit.......
This is the only good photo I could get when lit at night but take my word for it that it looks pretty with the purple lights!!!
I decorated around the bottom of the Tree a bit too!!
The cute purple package is an ornament........
I bought this cute Putz house this year at JoAnn Fabrics!
What are the chances of finding a Putz House in purple?????????
That lights up ( battery operated)!!

Another pretty purple ornament......
I thought it would look better on top of this brass candlestick......
I bought this ornament that has a Santa dressed in purple at Michaels several years ago......
As I mentioned before, this is Tree #3.........
I also hung a wreath on the Bathroom door......
You may remember that I re-did this wreath recently.......
  If you missed that post, you can read about it HERE
I like how it reflects the light......
I hung a cute little purple star with bells on it from the bottom of the wreath......
And that is how I decorated the upstairs Bathroom for Christmas this year.......

 There are a total of 7 Trees Upstairs this year!!

If you missed Christmas in the Master Bedroom, please click HERE ,where  I shared Trees # 1 and 2.......

Tree #1
 And Tree #2......
All I have left to decorate downstairs is the Powder Room which I am working on now.......

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

We sure did!!

 Next up on my Christmas Home Tour is the Christmas in the Craft Room, Part 1....
