More Christmas Decor

Here's more of what's going on in my beloved casa in honor of Christmas.

I put out this little guy. He doesn't have a name yet. My grandfather got married earlier this year and his new wife made this for me out of beads and paper clips! He's pretty cute.


 Maybe I should call him Frosty...


 I wanted to do something to decorate the stairwell, but I wanted it to be unique. I had some of these little snowflakes leftover from the tree so I thought I would see how they looked on the banisters.


I just untied them and then re-tied them on the banisters and I thought they looked pretty cute.


Festive stairwell!


Festive stairwell from farther away. Ooh. Aah.


Another thing I did was change out my frame. During October I had this little setup going on one of the bookshelves. At Michaels they were having a half off sale of frames and looking in the 8x10 section I found a two pack of the following frame. It was regular priced at $12 so I thought hey $6 is a great deal for that so I snatched them up. When I got the register the two-pack was 2.50(!!!!!!!!). How does that even happen? I got this Halloween scrapbook paper and fit it inside and added my little pumpkin and some candy corn. Halloween ready!


For November I had a fall (and orange?) theme happening. 


And now for winter I have changed it out to this.


It's been so fun decorating the house and getting it ready for Christmas. Can't wait to add some more!
