Christmas Decorations

finally! some Christmas decorations went up this week! :o)

i'm super simple when it comes to decorating for the season... 

most Christmases i just want a little Christmas color and smells in the house to get me in the mood for baking Christmas cookies and wrapping gifts.  since Christmas is coming soon, i stopped by one of the local Christmas tree lots this weekend on my way home.  they are usually wonderful about giving away scraps for free.

this is what i walked away with...

i cut up the branches and put little sprigs up throughout the house and now it smells like Christmas! :o)

i love the look of the red and white bakers twine with the silver ornaments... a perfect combination!
