I am finally getting with the program, Christmas that is. Yesterday and today, I have cleaned and began adding some little Christmas touches here and there. This little wreath is hanging above my kitchen sink. The pictures seem to be extremely bad today, you see I spent all my camera money at the vet. Stella is still on the mend and is slowly coming around. She is still not quite herself, and sparing you the details some things are not quite like they should be.
This is in the corner of my counter in the kitchen.
Remember that 90% off day.
I stitched up these little red and green napkins to go with the red place mats on the breakfast room table.
I promise my mantel looks much better in real life!

I added red berries, bird nests and feathers to this wispy pine garland.
I promise that mirror is not dirty, the glare just makes it look that way.

Have a wonderful day!

I love all of your Christmas pictures. We live in a little apartment and I am doing all I can to make it decorative... but I need to do it inexpensively, so thanks for the Hobby Lobby tip. Your acorns are great... I love HL! :) I am glad your little Stella is improving and I love your blog! Merry Christmas!!!
You know I HEART your acorns! We don't have a HL in CA. :(
So festive! I love the feathers in your garland!!
I love your acorns. You're so smart!!
I'm more than a little envious of your 90% off giant acorns. *sigh*
Maybe next year.
Merry Christmas!!
Glad to read that your Stella is better.
Your mantle looks great!! and the acorns are a steal at that price.
Christmas Joy.

Jackie~ Your decorations look beautiful, and so glad that Stella is on the mend. She is a darling!
I've been reading your blog through my Bloglines and didn't know you re-did your background. It's so pretty. Have a great weekend... Jennifer
Glad Stella is on the mend.
Agree about the mantel . . . looks lovely, especially with the feathers.
Instead of eggs in the nest, you could nestle two or three Christmas balls into it!
Merry Christmas!

Hi Jackie,
I LOVE your holiday decorations....they are gorgeous! I'm glad Stella is feeling better. I always hate it when children or animals are sick!
Oooh, I love the little wreath on your kitchen window. What a sweet thing to look at while you wash dishes.
I love the feathers in your garland too.
Glad Stella is on the mend.
Jackie it was worth waiting for! It is alllll beautiful. I love yoru mantle....so natural and organic. I can't believe you got those acorns for .29.....I sooo wish we had hobby lobby up here. I am glad your fur baby is on the mend...and I hope that things will get back to normal eventually. Did the vet say if it will? Merry CHRISTmas, cherry
Love the acorns you have! The garland looks beautiful!

I love the acorns. Target has some mercury glass acorns that I would love to have, but I just cannot figure out what I would do with them...so they're still at Target! :0) Everything looks beautiful!
