Christmas Hall Table

It's that time of year! Time to start decorating for Christmas! I love non-traditional colors and simplicity when it comes to holiday decor.

Here is what my hall table looks like.....I love it.

I went to the Home Goods store (TJ Maxx) and scored!

I love this....it's filled with pine cones, Christmas tree decorations and natural items. I sprinkled some cinnamon oil on the contents and now the entryway smells inviting and 'holiday-like'!

You can find the most unique items to decorate with. I love this dear deer! The silver placemat was only $3!!

I bought a box of these silver ball ornaments (4 per box) and used these 3 to hang from ribbon. It was so much fun fending off the cats as I cut ribbon and tried to hang each one!!

This 'icy blue' votive holder was a last-minute find and I love it. Again, a very inexpensive item....gotta love a bargain!!!

I hope you are enjoying putting up your decorations, chasing the critters away from your tree, and remembering the reason for the season!!!

My Ever-Changing Foyer Table!

I don't know about y'all....but the console table in my foyer is an ever-evolving display area! Do you often change the decor or arrangements like I do??

Here is a picture of it in late winter.....

I had added clear lights to the tall vessel and some different colored ceramic balls. It was a bright and festive area.

Since then, I have had vases of spring flowers, such as peonies {soooo fragrant}, I've added store-bought floral arrangements, and then my own sunflowers.

NOW-----once again-----it was time for an overhaul!! I'm really liking the simplicity of it, the vintage feel and the ~friendliness~ of this 'greeting'!!

As you can tell, I am a big fan [and newbie] collector of the glass insulators. I have LOVED milk glass for years!

I found these candlestick holders on ebay......ordered TWO sets of them, actually, from different sellers. Milk glass pieces go with just about any decor {I loooooove them} and can be used in any room!!

The white, oval tray I purchased from OneKingsLane.com. There are some REAL finds at this site and I believe it was a steal at $20!! The blue, oval vase was a find from yesterday's clearance search at AC Moore! It was marked down to $3!! WhoooHoooo!!!! I then added some silk flowers to it and.....*tada*......I'm in love!!

So, what do you think? Do you like it? Does it inspire you? What are your favorite collectibles and how do you display them??
