So head on over and join us there. So it's christmas decor home tour time Let's do it We're starting this year's home tour outside. We just have a couple of decorations Outside is very very simple. I have this cute. Merry christmas snowman. I bought this at hoppy lobby this year It was $10. He's cute. He's metal and I think he just brings a little bit of joy outside And I also have this tall wooden snowman. He actually sits on my porch every year I couldn't even tell you where I got him. I've had him for several Several years and then I always have my big joy sign on my front porch If you didn't know my middle name is joy So I always incorporate as much joy in the holiday season as possible This I picked up from coals last year and I just think that this looks really nice together on the front porch My merry christmas rug. I bought at hoppy lobby last year He's just adorable with the santa and the snowman and then of course the star of the front door is my huge wreath This is from cosco. I have had this wreath for at least Seven or eight years and it looks brand new. It's beautiful. I just hang it on the outside of my screen door It's so welcoming when you walk up to the house and then on my actual front door I just have this cute little middle welcome sign with a santa I have a hook on this door because every month or season I change out the decor So this is the one I put up for christmas now walking into the house We first enter the formal living area, which is where most of the christmas magic happens On the back of my door my front door where we come into the formal living room I have this happy holly day sign This is from a dollar tree. Don't sleep on the dollar tree. They actually have some pretty cute decorations And on the wall next to the door. I have this rustic stick Snowflake isn't that gorgeous with a little bit of holly leaves and berries This is from hobby lobby this year and it was 15 dollars with the discount and then as you walk in We have our focal point here of our table as well as our tree My tree is brand new this year top to bottom. It's a new tree. It has all new decorations So I can't wait to dive into that with you guys But we do put some pillows on our couch Above our window here in the formal living room. We have just a rustic garland It has you know the pine Sprigs and berries and pine cones. This is actually from amazon So I will do my best to link everything that I have or can find down below for you But this was affordable It's lightweight enough that you can hang it above a window on a curtain rod Which is exactly what I was looking for my pillows on my couch also have that whole rustic vibe That's what we went for this year with the tree and all the new decorations is kind of a rustic Christmas So this santa pillow. I love him. He's from hobby lobby this year I believe it was about 15 dollars after the discount in this corner of the couch We have this really pretty snowflake pillow. Troy actually found this at ride aid for six dollars. So it's kind of a shinier material But I love the buffalo check with the white snowflake for accent and you can't beat six dollars And then this was the other matching pillow from hobby lobby that goes really well With that santa claws. So this is what the couch looks like with all three pillows I think they just tie in really nicely and then we have the table or the focal point when you first walk in This is what you see when you walk in the front door So we always spend a lot of time and energy decorating this table for all of the seasons Because it is that focal point when you first walk in so because we don't have a fireplace in our house technically We use this cute stocking hanger that says and the stockings were hung A girl who used to work for me when I lived in mazula made this for me She has a woodworking business on this side. I will link her information down in the description box She can make anything you want custom for you So I had her make me this four holder stocking So we're hung sign and it sits right above this table and of course it holds our stockings. So we have diesel Troy Myself and lola and I just think it's really cute It's great if you don't have a mantle or somewhere to hang your stockings Moving down to the table. I have this rustic mousse with these cute movable feet. He's just adorable I picked him up in leavenworth washington on one of our anniversary trips We generally go every year in november for our birthdays and anniversary And he was one of the fun things I found a couple years ago And then I have these really cute rustic plaid presents. These are from hobby lobby this year I believe this one was about ten dollars And then I have a small one as well And I think this one was about five dollars and I put those next to my tree and I love this tree so much It's actually from cracker barrel a couple of years ago. I pay ten dollars for it It is white, but it also has this pretty glitter. I don't know if you can see that It flashes different colored lights I just think it's so pretty and it just adds a nice element when you walk in the door to the table And then I have this cute merry christmas Rustic wood sign from hobby lobby last year and everything sits on this table runner I've had this table runner for years and years. I don't even know where it came from I think maybe a craft fair, but it's just really cute and again brings that whole rustic vibe into this space Hanging on the table. I have this really pretty kind of rustic garland from amazon I'll link this down below for you as well. It was super affordable. I also have one hanging in my kitchen It's very small and lightweight and great to hang in small spaces and on the bottom of my table I have this rustic Flocked pinecone cranberry garland from hobby lobby for 30 dollars with the discount I strung a string a 40 count light string Also from hobby lobby in the garland to light it up And then I have these cute little winter birds and these I bought about five years ago at target And they're so cute and they go so well in the garland So that is the table and I just think it's all ties together So nicely and it's so pretty when you first walk in In this one. Hello lola What are you doing weirdo? She's joining us on my christmas house tour Huh, you're joining us. I have this wall plug in snowman from ross has wax melt and it makes the house smell so Incredibly nice and then before we jump into the tree. I just want to show you my tree skirt Also, very rustic. I picked this up at hobby lobby last year So let's deep dive into this tree if you watched my christmas haul video I showed you all the ornaments that I picked up Well, we ended up having to add quite a bit to that Simply because this tree that we bought this year is so large. We added a few fun elements I can't wait to show you this year's rustic christmas tree. So starting with the tree itself We bought this at michael's this year. It is a seven and a half foot vermont pine tree that is flocked I convinced my husband to do a flocked tree It was not as messy as we anticipated and I just love the look of it. I think it really brings in the rustic It's just absolutely stunning. So again, our ornaments this year are rustic christmas everything outdoorsy The colors of deep red and dark green and brown And everything and anything that brings in that rustic vibe So to top our tree we ended up going with this beautiful burlap bow We originally bought a tree topper. It just did not work. It was too heavy So I bought this bow at hobby lobby and I love it. I think it's perfect for on top of the tree I also incorporated quite a few different picks into the tree. So these have a crystallized pine With cranberries and then in the back there is some gold holly leaves. So I ended up getting about 30 Of these picks and just putting them in the tree So that's a great way to fill in any gaps Or to really bring some color to the tree if your ornaments are like mine where they're just not as colorful So I have about 30 of these picks and then I also have these picks with pinecones and snow covered berries with a little bit of pine needle I have about 10 of these strung through the tree as well Now we like these but again, we wanted to bring in color and that's where we went With the berries instead of just the browns and greens But I do like the little bit of accent of both the berry picks and the pinecone picks The other thing I added were these red burlap bows. These are so so incredibly cute So they have this nice clip on the back so you can clip them onto your tree Now what I ended up doing was just kind of setting them In the open spaces where I could and then clipping them where it was necessary But I love them and they came six to a pack and I ended up purchasing four packs. So there are 24 Little red burlap bows on my tree and I just love again how it brings in the rustic with a pop of color I showed these in my Christmas haul But these are little bell ornaments with the cute little twigs and holly and pinecones on top So I have nine of those kind of spread throughout the tree as well And I use those to fill in gaps from the ornament So that was just a great way to kind of fill in the gap But without the traditional Christmas ball like what I had last year So now let's start looking at all the ornaments. So again, I went with the rustic Christmas So you're going to see a lot of wood tones. You're going to see a lot of rustic imagery in the ornaments I love this no well bell It doesn't have a bell but the ball And then these are a couple of new ones that I actually picked up at hobby lobby to fill the gaps Like I said, there was so much room on this tree that we just had a lot of gaps and things to fill with ornaments But you're just going to see all of the ornaments that I purchased in that haul and how those are incorporated This is our 2020 ornament. Unfortunately our trip to leavenworth was canceled due to our state being shut down for covid So we ordered this off of etsy. I'm all about small business this year So this says Clayton 2020 and it's this cute red truck with the tree in the back So that is our ornament for this year Custom made for us from a sweet small business on etsy. I'll put their link down below for you Christmas tree such pleasure do Moving into our living room that we usually sit in to watch tv if you didn't notice We do not have a tv in our formal living room That's on purpose because this is where we spend most of our time But before we head that way, I want to show you my tree. I love this tree This is from hobby lobby this year. I just love it. It is wood with the berries. It's frosted It is so cute. It's nice and tall So it looks really nice on a plant stand in a corner on our tv stand I added just a few small decorations. So I have these really pretty red glass Candle holders my mom gave these to me about 10 years ago. I use them every year This we wish you a merry christmas with the wood grain and I really like how these two look side by side The merry christmas sign is from hobby lobby last year for about five dollars on this side I have two more of the glass candle holders and this cute little wooden snowman Whose legs just drape over and that is from hobby lobby this year as well on our end table We have all things snowmen first. We have this really cute snowman My mother-in-law gave this to us a couple years ago So it has a special place in our heart because if you didn't know my mother-in-law passed away a few months ago In august So this is something we can put out every year that reminds us of her and we just love it. It changes colors It's so cute and then I paired him with this cute little snowman wax melt burner I picked this up last year at ross for about seven dollars And then I have these cute little votive candles from hobby lobby They say merry christmas and I always just burn a pretty red votive in those So this is the connie mother-in-law corner of the living room I hung the second one of those garlands that were on the table in the other living room Above the window these are great super affordable and again because they're so lightweight You can just string them on your curtain rod and lastly we have our cute pillows on the couch These are from coals a couple years ago I just think that they are so cute and they just the colors tie in Really well with our living room and then moving into the kitchen. We have quite a few other decorations Starting with my table. So I have this really cute runner. This is from tj maxx last year It says happy holidays. It has the snowman in the back of the buffalo checked truck. It's so cute I love the colors and then my centerpiece is very very simple This white red and green mat where I have a cute little snowman And these candle holders are from hobby lobby this year. I just love them. They're so pretty. They have a silver inside So when you burn the candle, they're just stunning So this is the centerpiece on my kitchen table and then the same pattern is on the other end of the run On our french doors. We have this cute merry christmas I have had this for years probably 10 years But I don't know if you can tell but it's felt and it's so cute and it just has the letters For merry christmas with a couple of snowflakes at the end So I like to string that here because I can still open and close the curtain I have a countdown till christmas, of course on my kitchen counter This is from hobby lobby last year And then I always change out both my soap dispensers my hand soap from bath and body works and then my dish soap This little santa dish soap holder is from kohl's last year And then nude this year is the we wish you a merry christmas Sign I bought this at tj maxx and it just sits Right here on my window ledge behind my faucet and then up on this curtain. I have this cute kind of yarn Felt ball garland. I just think it's so cute and it just brings in a little bit of christmas cheer To this part of my kitchen I have this cute merry christmas sign with a red car instead of a truck with this tree that lights up So it just has a switch here on the side to turn it on and off and it's super cute It has a plaid top and it just sits next to my soap dispenser And then I do have this cute warm wishes spatula that I add to my utensils And then on my stove. I have my snowman salt and pepper shaker I have had this for over 10 years. I've never used it for salt and pepper. It's more for looks But I love it. It's so cute and it ties really nicely with my snowman spoon rest This is from coals last year and one of my favorite pieces of decor is the jolliest bunch of elves this side of the nut house This is from christmas vacation, which is our favorite christmas movie So I had to pick this up at hobby lobby last year It couldn't be more perfect for our house and then I did buy the grump tree from trader joes It's so cute. You can actually plant this outside when the holidays are over So I had to grab him. I thought he was so absolutely adorable I also hang a fun festive towel from my oven And on this counter over here where I actually make my coffee and all my videos that you see I have this really cute camper sentsy burner. Now. This is an actual sentsy brand. I bought this last year I love it. I think it's absolutely adorable. It's a cute little old school camper And I put my wax melts in there lights up my kitchen. It's beautiful And then I have this cute metal snowman. He's kind of like the bobble head He does kind of bobble around and I just think that these two look really cute together on this counter in my kitchen And in my mud room. So this door here is our comes in from our garage I did add a couple of christmas pieces just kind of for fun in here as well So I have this cute little christmas gnome and his feet are adjustable so that you can make him taller He has the cute buffalo check. So I set him here on my table And then on my shelf up here. I added that merry christmas sign from the dollar spot at target this year Five dollars and it's so cute with this cute little tinsel tree Also from the target dollar spot for three dollars and that just kind of made This corner just kind of festive and cute now on the wall as you walk in I have this home for the holiday sign with the red truck. This is from the dollar tree last year So that's all that I did in here again This is just where we come in from the garage We can sit on the bench there to put our shoes on and also where our dogs go in and out But I just think it brings just a little christmas cheer And then we're moving into my office where as you know, I was able to get a tree this year I convinced my husband that it was in my office. He didn't have to worry about the tree at all I would take complete care of it So I was able to pick up a tree for my office for a little festive cheer And this is where I film all of my video. So it was important to me to make this christmasy as well So when you first walk in to my office on the back wall here is this snowman painting I actually painted this at one of those wine and paint night classes quite a few years ago He's super cute. I love him and then on my door in my facebook group We do a christmas card exchange every single year I've actually already gotten a couple of christmas cards, which is super exciting So I did hang that on my door and as the cards come in I go ahead and clip them to the ribbons And then on my bookshelves. I swap out a lot of my regular decor with christmas So I have this cute little tree from the dollar spotted target and these ornaments came from hobby lobby I just think it's a nice little accent and then on this shelf I have this cute little bird My mom actually got him for me last year because he matches with my birds In my formal living room and he's just so cute and then of course a wooden joy sign And then down here I have a really cute snowman and ho ho ho sign These are both from hobby lobby last year and this is my main filming area So you see a lot of this in the background So I really Glammed it up for christmas this year on this shelf I have a pretty wooden white tree and this little sign that says I'm on santa's nice list You can also flip it around to say naughty list, which I'm never on the naughty list And then on this shelf I have my cute little cookies with santa sign And again on the back you can swap it this cute little sign is from ross last year And then I put this other little wooden snowman and little tree from hobby lobby on here Just to kind of add a little bit more fun to this shelf And then the next shelf down I have this ball ornament This looks very similar to the rustic ones on my tree along with this cute Snowman, which I believe I picked up at walmart quite a few years ago I added this really cute kind of fun festive tree to my shelf This is from fred mire a couple of years ago And then this cute joy to the world sign and next to my famous high friend sign is this cute Little bottle brush tree. This was a dollar from the dollar spot at target And then in front of my plant here, I added this cute christmas tree farm sign This came as a gift from one of my lovely subscribers last year. I don't have a whole lot on my desk I do have another one of those cute little candle holders because it was an extra And then I also have this which was a gift from a subscriber last year I just love this snow globe it is usb So it just connects here to my computer and then I can turn it on and enjoy it when I'm working I just think it's stunning and then of course I have a countdown in here as well I spend a lot of time in here So I have this cute little erasable chalkboard to count down the days until christmas So let's jump into my tree. So it is this cute About six foot tall really really skinny Flocked tree, which is exactly what I wanted just for the space It works really really well and this tree skirt, believe it or not Is from the dollar tree and it's for one of those mini trees But it is perfection for this tree and speaking of dollar tree all of my little ball ornaments The red and the green all came from the dollar tree It was two dollars for a pack of green and a pack of red. So again take advantage of the dollar tree My tree topper is this glittery snowflake with pearls The tree and the tree topper both came from hobby lobby this year And then for ornaments what I decided to do was like I mentioned every year We go to leavenworth washington and we get a custom ornament But because we swapped the decor on our tree to rustic these no longer fit So I decided to use these ornaments to decorate my tree in the office as well as sentimental ornaments from Troy's childhood So i'm going to walk you through the ornaments. Of course the christmas balls again are from the dollar tree So this is last year's customizable personalized ornament We always put our names on it. So you can see that this was 2019 And then this one right here is just so cute. This one was 2018's ornament and then there is this pretty little gold angel My husband's sister passed away at the age of 12 and this was actually her ornament that went on the tree every year So we have ever since incorporated it into our tree And then my husband's grandmother who has passed away made him this cute Golf bag Troy is a huge golfer and this is so absolutely adorable. So I put it on my tree So this is 2017's ornament with our names on it. You can see we still liked the rustic We just went full rustic this year last year. I did diesel in lola's paw prints from this cute little kit From tj max. So here is lola's paw print and here is diesel's paw print So just kind of fun to have that for the dogs these little wood sleds This one says Troy and we have another one that says amanda Were there's when they were children and this drum was also Troy's as a child So it has went on our tree every year as well This cute ornament with the lab on it on a piece of wood came from a subscriber last year I just love it because you know diesel's a lab. So that spoke right to my heart And then we have this cute little angel snowman that says connie that was my mother-in-law's name So of course we have a tribute to her here on our tree And then this I bought at a craft fair in 2016. It just says diesel and lola on it My mom bought me this ornament a couple years ago because again My middle name is joy and it's on this cute piece of wood it says joy to the world This is our 2016 family ornament again with the moose. It's so cute made this in one of those pottery Painting studios in 2012 for diesel. It's just a dog bone Here is amanda's red sled and last but not least we have this cute homemade gift egg That says to connie from mom both Troy's mom and grandma have passed away So we found this and we thought again, this would be a great tribute So that is my adorable tree in my office I'm just so excited To have a tree to put up in here every single year and just make my office a little more cosier Not to mention it makes a really nice backdrop for all of my filming Thank you for joining me for this year's home tour I hope you enjoyed seeing how we decorated our home this year and what these special ornaments Symbolize and what those mean to us as a family It was really fun to buy a new tree and new decorations And I can't wait to just add to my ornaments and my collection every single year I am loving how it all turned out.
