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 Guest Room, Part 2, Christmas Home Tour 2015

Welcome to Part 2 of Christmas in the Guest Room, Christmas Home Tour!!
In Part 1 , I shared Tree #6..........
And spoke about my childhood memories of Plasticville......
If you missed that post, please click HERE !!

Today, in my final post on how the upstairs in our home is decorated, I am sharing my "faux" Fire Place in the Guest Room.......

 I decorated the "mantle" of my "faux" fireplace to match the larger Tree in the room......
 The bright colored wall paper border is what lead me to choose bright multi colored ornaments for this room......

  3 years ago, I bought a bunch of ornaments and other decorations after Christmas in a bright multi-colored theme!!  Also all the decorations for this tree were 75% off or bought at Yard Sales, Flea Markets and Estate Sales!!
This is Tree # 7..........
Again, I have made a Bow of several different types of ribbon  to top the Tree.......
Along with a vintage Tree Topper that you can see reflected in the mirror!!

 Small bright colored ball ornaments and icicles in bright pink adorn this Tree......
I bought the Tree in J.C. Penney's several years ago and it is battery operated.....

Now to the top of the "Mantle"........
I decorated it with the thought of a "Snow Village"
 I used cake plates for elevation at each end.........
 One of a few snowmen!!
And Putz Houses!!


 I have added some vintage Shiny Brite ornaments to the garland in addition to ornaments I bought on Clearance after Christmas a few years ago........
 I also added 2 vintage Tree Toppers and a Bow in the center......

 It is quite colorful, wouldn't you say????

And the Teddy Bears are having a Christmas Tea!!
In the "hearth" area......
A pretty Angel........
I also made a wreath for the door.......
Again, following the color theme of the room........
And that concludes the Tour of the upstairs decorated for Christmas.......

There are 7 decorated Trees upstairs!!

Next up on the Tour, we are moving downstairs !!!!!

How many Trees are downstairs?????

What is the total Decorated Trees for this year you ask????

Well, the decorating is finished and the final number is in!!

There are 12 decorated Trees downstairs!!!!!!

Add those to the 7 Trees upstairs and that means.......

19 Decorated Trees Total!!!!!

In all shapes and sizes with the smallest being 3 decorated Trees in Nelson Crest , my Victorian Doll House!!

Next up on the Tour is the Den, which I have not decorated for Christmas in 2 years......
  I have had a really good time decorating this room!!

Click HERE to see Christmas in the Den, Part 1!

On Debbie-Dabble, I posted a Mini Christmas Home Tour of the Downstairs and Upstairs.
Please Click HERE and HERE if you missed those posts!!

 Also, all parts of my Christmas Home Tour 2015 , are posted on my Side Bar. Just click on the pic for each Part to see!!

  I hope you will come by and visit  again!!

And thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!

I must apologize because I have once again, fallen behind in my return visits and comments!! I will be off for 3 days at the end of the week and I will be sure to catch up so I will be by soon!!

To those of you do not have a blog, PLEASE  give me some way to reply to your comment, maybe by including your email in your comment.  If I can not find a way to reach you, I will reply on the post where you commented so please check back......
Hugs,
Debbie

    Debbie, This is my favorite room that you've shown so far! I love the bright colors with the white trees and garland! I may have to borrow your cake stand idea. I never thought about using mine in my Christmas displays. Can't wait to see the next room! Mary (masteinbrink at msn.com)

    Your post certainly brought a smile to my face, Debbie! Everything looks so pretty. Nelson Crest looks so pretty. My sweet granddaughter has asked for a doll house for Christmas. I pinned your "gussied up" N.C. and sent it to her mama so she will be sure to see it! Merry Christmas, dear friend.

    Hey Debbie, my favorite part of this room has to be the teddy bear tea party on the fireplace hearth. What a cute idea!
