Merry, Merry! {Acorn Cottage: Living Room}

 Come on in! It's the Christmas season, so I always believe more is more. There is never minimalism in my decorating. I just can't do it. I just don't like it! 

In the living room, the colors of the season- red, green, gold, and silver - abound. The classic, traditional colors and scents whet my appetite the most during the holiday season.

Enjoy the sights of the season...

In the Living Room, y'all!

Merry, Merry! {Acorn Cottage: Courtyard @ Night}

 I do not post the courtyard in the rear of the house often because J and I simply cleaned it up from the previous owners. It is not up to my standards, but for now, it'll have to work. 

We do have big plans in 2-3 years for a complete re-do, but I do love the courtyard at night. With the addition of a frasier fir Christmas tree and white lights, I adore the yard at night. One thing I do like about the yard is that it is completely visible from the front. At Christmas, the Christmas tree is visible which I love. We added C7 white lights which add to the seasonal spirit.

I also use the large red mercury glass balls year after year in the trees. These ar from NoMas in Atlanta.

Courtyard at Night, y'all!

Merry, Merry! {Acorn Cottage: Daylight Facade}

 It was not the most beautiful day when I snapped photos of the Acorn Cottage, but I still think she looks pretty dressed in her holiday splendor.

The front door features a new shield monogrammed door hanger by Cynthia Kolls. It is surrounded by live greenery and a plaid ribbon.

I love the holiballs that I added to my Christmas decor last year. I see that they are available locally this year (Does that mean everyone will have them?).

As stated before, I am a traditionalist. I love red, green, gold, and silver in my Christmas decor. It is classic and never will go out of style. This is the second season that I have used my plaid ribbon by d.stevens, and it had weathered very well.

Have you decorated yet? Tomorrow is December 1. Get moving!
