Welcome to my Christmas Blog, A Debbie-Dabble Christmas!!
I am so happy you decided to stop by my Christmas Blog!!
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, THURSDAY AND SATURDAYS.....
As always, click on each picture if you would like to enlarge it....

And now for a few Personal Notes...
Well, NEPA was hit by the first snow storm of the Season.....
Some areas got an inch of snow and some areas in the Pocono's got over a foot.....
I got about 4-5 inches.....
Snow makes everything look better especially Christmas decorations.....
I do LOVE snow and I could not wait to get out there to PLAY!!
I shoveled several neighbor's sidewalks, 2 sets of steps and cleaned off 4 cars.....
My next door neighbor's kids had a great time with my sons childhood shovels that I still use for shoveling the steps....
It brought back a lot of memories for me....
Today, I will be sharing the main Living Room Tree and the Village I set up on the platform underneath it....
After I stripped the Tree down to the lights, I realized I needed to replace a set of lights.....
I also added 2 sets of red, green and white lights.....
I then added 2 sets of beaded garland that I wove together.....
Next, I added a red, green and gold beaded garland....
With the lights on.....
I topped the Tree off with a gold finial and a bow with a few streamers......
I then added all the Victorian style ornaments that I collected or made over many years......
Next, I tucked gold floral picks into the Tree and added red and white stripped candle ornaments.....
And here it is finished and lit up......
Next, I started doing the base work for the Village.....
I used the boxes from the houses and covered them with white felt fabric.....
I also covered the tree collar with felt.....
Since I bought new light sets for the houses, I changed the arrangement of the houses.....
And then I set up the Village on the platform that my Dad made for me 46 years ago......
Each house has a special meaning to me.....
I will set up this village as long as I am physically able to do so ....
Like my Dad did when I was a child....
I always say that I can hear my Dad say "That a Girl" when I finish the Village....
And this year, I know Joe is standing beside him.....
In my next post on MONDAY, I will continue my Tour of the Living Room decorated for Christmas.....
So I hope you will stop by to visit again on MONDAY.....
Stay safe, healthy and most of all, HAPPY!!
Thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!
