I'm FINALLY sharing my home Christmas decorations! Of course I always helped my mom decorate the family home for the holidays, but this year I got to decorate my own home. And I had so much fun doing it! Thanks to having a December/Christmas wedding, I had almost everything I needed to decorate, but I did make some fun new decorations to add to my stash. Because I had decorations in all the same colors, I decided to stick with a theme for my décor. Lots of sparkly blue, silver, and gold...
So here is my "Sparkling Christmas" home décor!
The piano is a recent addition to our home and I am so excited to have it tuned up so I can start playing! Of course a beautiful instrument must be decorated! Adorned with a lighted garland, gold and silver flowers, and vases of gold, blue and silver ornaments.
Sticking with the theme, the entertainment center is decorated with a lighted garland wrapped in a snowflake bow, vases of blue ornaments, candles, and nativity Willow Tree.
The mantle was the hardest place for me to decorate, but I think it turned out nice! This was the spot that needed some DIY decorations. (instructions below) Decked out with silver tinsel, handmade cone trees, Christmas cookie candles, globe, small presents, nativity block, and a handmade ornament wreath.

Tip: Experiment with ornament size. I used ornaments that were all similar in size, but it would be easier to make with both small and large ornaments.
In my opinion, the tree is the most important part of Christmas decorating. All I've ever known is an 8' live evergreen, so this year was a bit disappointing with my 4' pre-lit fake tree. But I will admit, it is an adorable little tree! Decorated with blue, gold, and silver balls and a gold flower on the top. Above the tiny tree is a handmade burlap banner.
Hoping to steal a kiss or two! :)
Now giving tours!
Just kidding... But really, anyone is welcome to come see! I had a great time decorating my house for my favorite holiday and I look forward to many more years of home décor!
Merry Christmas and happy decorating!
