Our Christmas Home

Hello, and happy Wednesday, my friends. This year is our first Christmas in our new home, so I am inviting you in for a visit! Pour a cup of coffee, tea, or cocoa, get cozy, and spend some time with me in our Christmas home. Finding new places for our special Christmas decorations that hold so many memories for us was fun. So please, come in the front door into the foyer, which usually contains numerous pairs of shoes, several coats, and other random items, but miraculously, it was completely clear on this day. 

From there, we move into the family room, where we spend most of our time. See Mocha? That is where I am in right now, typing up this post!



Behind the sofa, I hung these beautiful pieces I found on Etsy. 

And nearby, a perfect place for my beautiful nativity.

From here, we head into the kitchen, the heart of any home.


And, finally, the Bird Room, as we call it because You can see so many different types of birds at any given time from the beautiful windows across the back of the house. 




The tree is adorned with our special ornaments from years past...






And that makes me happy. 
As do pups and cozy blankets on a couch near a Christmas tree in December.

Thanks for visiting our Christmas home, my friends.
Have a wonderful day!

Billie Jo

  2. I love it! Every little touch is GORGEOUS. You have a gift!! Truly, where some homes look like they're from a magazine and you can't picture how they live life, your home reflects that cozy spirit you embody and it's so immediately evident how you use your home to the fullest. Thank you for this little tour!

  7. Oh my gosh! It is all so beautiful, cheerful, and joyous!!! And I have to admit that I saved a photo or two to use as inspiration for our home! Is the furniture in your family room green, or is that the lighting effect? Because we have green furniture in our living room as well! Your tree is gorgeous and elegant. Plus I loved getting a tour of your home. Mocha is so cute just peeking out there. Your kitchen and kitchen island are gorgeous!!

  16. What a beautiful home! I especially love the Christmas music prints, how clever and fun! I love seeing everyone's Christmas decorations because our house is currently under renovation and the only decoration I have is a big red dumpster outside (at least the color is on theme, I guess). I love to dream about how I'll decorate next year!

  17. What an amazing holiday home! I so wish my home was as clean and uncluttered as yours. Mine is getting much better but my husband does not like to let go of things.

  21. Your home is very nice, and furnished in good taste. The Christmas decorations are well done, just the right amount of bling without being excessive, very pretty. Most of the lifestyle blogs are so overdone with decor they look like those old Trident import shops full of stuff to the ceiling.

  22. Your new home is beautifully decked out for Christmas from the front door entry throughout to your Bird Room, Billie Jo. Your tree is gorgeous. I would love to know where you got the metal reindeer that stands outside your front door. Thank you so much for sharing and giving a tour.
