Anne Marie's Annual Christmas Home Tour, 2023



 

 

 

 

 Welcome to my Christmas Blog, A Debbie-Dabble Christmas!!

 I am so happy you decided to stop by my Christmas Blog!!

  Every room in our townhouse has a different Christmas Theme and Color Scheme!!
 
 I prove that you do not have to live in a large home to have several Trees, over 20, in all shapes and sizes!!

The majority of my Christmas decorations are placed in the same room every year and I know that this is not what most Decorator's care for but to me, it like seeing old friends again when I decorate each year for Christmas as many of my decorations were gifts from family and friends........... 

I do try to add a few new things and change up things a bit but for the most part, these decorations are part of my Christmas Traditions and bring back a lot of treasured memories.....

  
 I post 3 TIMES A WEEK on MONDAY, WEDNESDAY and FRIDAYS!!!!
 
 
As always, click on each picture if you would like to enlarge it....

 Once again, she was gracious enough to allow me to share her home with you....

You will be amazed with her beautiful antiques and vintage pieces!!!!

 

The Tour is in Anne Marie's own words...

 

My theme this year was Deer and Reindeer....
 
 The Hall Tree with signage that has the names of all of Santa's reindeer....
 
 
  

  A plaid throw, vintage Rudolph golden book and the lit tree is one that Debbie gave me....
 

This basket is on top of the safe table by the steps...

 
 
 The Side by Side....
 

Vintage Steiff deer on top of the side by side......

 

 A few silver items with holly and Lefton holly girls....

 

 
  More of the antique Limoge holly berry pieces....

 

  Inside the shelves of the side by side....

 

 

 I laid snow on a couple of the shelves to cover up my Victorian Easter eggs that were in there, because I really didn’t want to move them so I tried to camouflage them!


 

 Lol!!

This is in the one small open cubby in the side-by-side.....
 
  I had the antique postcard and then I saw this Handmade decoration.....
 
 
 I really liked it so I got it and just put the two together in the cubby.....
 


The tables next to the side-by-side.....
 

 
Vintage Santa mugs and pitcher....
 
 
 

 
 The back table has vintage Noel Santa mugs with bottle brush trees inside....




 




  In the cubbies of the Living Room wall unit.....
 
  
 
All the flocked deer are vintage.....
 
 
The plates, die cut, postcards are antique.....
 
 
The Santa is an antique candy container....
 
  
 He comes apart to put candy inside!
 



 
 
 
 The crib that Debbie gave me....
 
 I just did it up in a winter theme...
 
 
 . 
A big snowball pillow, snowflakes, vintage bottle brush tree, vintage flocked deer.....
 
 I’ve had that for a couple years and the snowman is new and meant to look vintage.....
 
 
 
The gift box is vintage and just happened to have a deer design on it.....
 

 
 

 My Christmas Tree.....
 
 
 
 
 Just did a table top one this year in an antique, revolving musical German tree stand......
 

 
 The ornaments are all Victorian scrap with tinsel and candle clips as my lights.....
 

 
 
 
Antique doll and book......
 
 
 
A jadeite, A lot of money, cup with a vintage bottle brush tree.....
 

The Santa' s are antique.....

 
 
The Dining Room.....

 Poinsettias and the deer I had......
 
 
 
  Tony gave it to me several years ago......

 This is the buffet.....
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 I have a reindeer epergne in the center....
 
 
 
 
 
 German lead deer on either side with some gnomes for some whimsy, pine cones, moss and mushrooms......



The Hutch....


Inside the Hutch in the Dining Room......
 
 All of the holly berry pitchers and plates are either antique or vintage as well as the figurines......
 









 The Dining Room table......
 
 
 
I just did two place settings....

 
 
 
 
 The wreath that has the ornaments on the outside is the one that Debbie made for me and it is on the Bathroom door...... 
 

 
Reindeer towel is in the Bathroom as well as the shelf that has the Santa......
 

 
  The snow globe card and a little antique cup with a bottle brush tree inside.....
 

 
 
The other one Debbie made for me with the vintage poinsettia is on my Kitchen window......
 
 
  The shelves in the Kitchen hold an assortment of antique postcards, die cuts etc.....
