Hi Friends and welcome to our third and final installment of One Space Three Ways, Holiday Edition! For our monthly decorating challenge, we decided to choose one space in our homes and for three months, decorate it to match the Holiday of the month. This month we decorated for Christmas of course!
I chose my entry way table:
Here’s a reminder of what it looked like for November:
You can see October here.
I am really loving the very traditional Christmas colors this year. I think because my décor is usually very neutral, it’s fun to add pops of color for Christmas.
This Santa picture was purchased for my mantel a few years ago, but he got bumped when I made my “Two Turtle Doves” wreath last year. I hung him on my mirror and liked him here.
I tell my kids that Santa is watching ha ha.
Can you see whose sitting in the background? Our elf, Jingle. 🙂
My five-year old is all about Jingle this year.
This is what you see to the left as you enter our home…
That’s my desk in the background, where I’m sitting right now writing this post. 🙂
I kept this vignette really simple. I used this tree in the sleigh that I have had for years. It usually goes in my guest bath…
I added twinkle lights to it so it sparkles at night.
These candle sticks are the same ones I scored from Michaels on black Friday.
And the wrapped presents are a really inexpensive way to decorate!
I added some ribbon leftover from my outdoor décor (sharing tomorrow!) to the top along with this gold wired garland I’ve had for years…
Still loving my new (to me) mirror that I redid for last month’s challenge. Even though I covered the mirrored part, I still love how it frames Mr. Claus.
So that concludes my indoor Christmas tour. If you missed the rest, I’d love for you to check it all out here:
And I’ll be back tomorrow sharing the outside!
Be sure to stop by my talented friends’ homes as well to see how they transformed their one space a third way!
