2022 Christmas Home Tour

This past weekend, I buttoned up the last of my Christmas Decorating in time for the festivities to begin.  I am so excited to share our decorated home.  This year, the theme I chose was “Winter Wonderland with Plaid Accents”.  Here in South-western Ontario, Canada, it is fairly mild until the end of October.  This year, we were surprised with a few warmer days well into November.  No complaints from this summer-time girl!

If you are new to my blog, welcome!  And if you have been here awhile, thank you so much for coming back.

Let’s begin the tour!

Livingroom.

Our first stop is the livingroom.  I’m not sure why I always begin with the fireplace mantel, but I do.  It’s such a beautiful focal point in our home.  The fireplace itself has the original coal burning insert, but it is non-functional.  There has been severe damage to it with all the cozy home fires we and previous home owners have enjoyed over the years.  To most, it goes unnoticed. 

I have used two different garlands on the mantel, one is an evergreen garland and the other is a eucalyptus garland.  They look so pretty intertwined together.  Then I added some extra floral stems to them such as the bunch of berries and another evergreen stem I had on hand.  The last touch was the warm white string lights I purchased from Walmart Canada.  They really do give a warm cozy ambience in the livingroom.  I also placed some of my favourite Nutcrackers on the mantel along with a large bottle brush tree and two glitter trees.  The “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” sign art was made by a local artist who has a sign art business.  I love supporting local businesses whenever I can.  I sent her an image I found on the internet.  I gave her the size I wanted and she made the magic happen.  I’m so in love with this large sign art.

We have our very large flocked faux Christmas tree in the livingroom this year.  Last year, it was in the diningroom, but we wanted it more central for Christmas morning.  Over the years, I’ve been collecting white ornaments, so I have plenty to fill the tree.  Then I started collecting winter wonderland ornaments such as faux racoons, birds, etc.  These have been THE PERFECT addition to our Winter Wonderland tree!  The tree topper was another DIY project.  Wired ribbon tree toppers are so fun to make.  You can be so creative by choosing different patterns or solid colours of ribbon for your tree topper.  I love spending time in the livingroom every evening.  I feel like I’m in a Hallmark Christmas movie sometimes … lol.
