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....

In my last post, I shared my Winter Forest on the Dining Room buffet in white and gold....
And a few vintage Santa's including this one that I won on a raffle at my church....
Click HERE if you missed that post!!
And now for a few Personal Notes...
Well, we ended up with 4-5 inches of Snow on Tuesday so their predictions of 2- 8 was right!!
How could it not be!!
LOL!!
I was out shoveling 3 times as I like to keep up with it rather than waiting til it is over and then shovel a 5 inch back breaking snow...
Since my neighbor Ed passed away, I will now only be shoveling mine and my next door neighbor's sidewalks...

Tonight, we are going down to 10 degrees....
Today, I will be finishing up my tour of the Dining Room decorated for Christmas....
We will start in the corner where the Tree is......
On this cabinet, I have displayed my Department 56 Snow Babies Collection....
All were gifted to me by friends....
An ornament....
On a mirror tray....
The one on the left is a music box.....
I bought a 6 foot pencil thin Tree last year and I am so happy I did....
I was able to store it with the lights on, in a body bag ( remember I was a nurse) in the Sitting Room closet....
I pretty much decorated it like I did last year....
I topped it off with a bow made from pink ribbon and pink berry picks.....
Hung an angel ornament next the top.....
I decorated it in the pink, gold and white color theme for Christmas like the rest of the room....
The one thing I did do differently this year is that I added gold candle ornaments to this Tree...
In true Victorian fashion....
I tucked white sparkly baby's breath picks into the Tree....
I amassed this collection of Victorian ornaments over many years....
One of my Victorian dolls, a putz like house and a rocking horse....
Next to the Tree...
On a marble topped plant stand.....
I bought this Santa at a church flea market for $5....
I placed a bottle brush tree in an antique child's cup that most likely belonged to a tea set ...
My late friend Anne Marie gifted me the child's cup...
On the shelf....
Vintage looking figurines....
In the corner by the Kitchen....
A gold Santa on the shelf next to the curio....
Underneath the shelf....
Anne Marie gifted me this vintage funeral basket that I decorate for all the Holidays and Seasons....
Don't mind my Eero, which boosts my Wi Fi signal in the house, on the side...
The photo box is a gift from my son Jim and his family....
The top of the curio....
A "sitting" Santa....
An Angel that I placed inside a vintage white milk glass compote bowl, a gold branch tree and a gold and white cardinal, also gifted to me by Anne Marie...
Hanging on the faux window between the Dining Room and the Kitchen, is a wreath I made....
On a cabinet that my Dad built for me to match my Late husband Joe's grandmother's Dining Room furniture.....
The Santa's were bought many years ago in Burlington....
I placed a pink mercury glass candle votive holder inside a vintage crystal compote bowl filled with ornaments....
And that completes my tour of the Dining Room decorated for Christmas this year....
I always say that the Dining Room is my most Victorian looking room and that is definitely true especially at this time of year....
I hope you will stop by to visit again on SATURDAY for my next post....
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!!
