Helloooo Monday!

Well......first of all, I did NOT follow through with my promise of blogging last week because it was an insane week. We were shopping almost every night for things we needed to pull off our early Thanksgiving dinner (which we celebrated Saturday night, and it was fabulous). This week, however, should be different. I have all week off and an planning on blogging your ears out.....maybe even two posts in one day!

So since I want to start this week out fabulous......I am going to go ahead and start putting up my Christmas decor! This weekend my mom and I went to Target to shop around and I found these beautiful stockings for $10!

I got them personalized with our names in green, absolutely beautiful. Hopefully I will finish decking out the fireplace today and can post a picture tonight.

I also got a round storage basket, which we we be using to hold our logs right next to the fireplace over the winter. It looks something like this.......I could not find an exact picture.

These two additions are really going to look great with the rest of our Christmas decor. I don't use much red when decorating for Christmas, I tend to stick with greens, golds, silvers, creams. I love using pine cones in any way I can....... they are such a great vase filler, or ornament and can be found right outside.

Speaking of ornaments, I am in love with these little guys from Pottery Barn:


For the past few years Pottery Barn has been doing different variations of their woodland creatures, and every year when they go on sale I scoop them up! I am so excited that my little collection of these is growing because they are such a great addition to any tree.

Well off to unload the Christmas decor! Check back tonight for photo's of the fireplace!
