Merry Christmas from our home to yours. If you care to snoop around, here is the whole enchilada all dressed up for the holidays. Kitchen Touches If I had my way, the cabinets would go all the way up to the ceiling. Alas they do not. So while I am not normally a fan of putting anything on top, Christmas time calls for some lights and garlands. And Candy Cane {our Elf on the Shelf} finds it to be a cozy spot from which to spy!
I love filling up the new bulletin board with Christmas photos. We also hang them on our garlands going up the stairs. Dining Room
Children’s Touches While Grandma and Grandpa were in town, we decorated gingerbread houses at The St. Regis Hotel. It was a really special outing. We are looking forward to our annual gingerbread house making night this Sunday at our other Grandparents house {grammy and papa}. We all build our own . . . and let’s just say we come from a very creative and competitive family! It’s always an event!
My daughter made this at school and gave it to her brother yesterday. I am pretty much in love with it. I think I will frame the bag to use as art during Christmas time. Family Room It’s nice to see the wreaths through the windows during the daytime.
One of my favorite ornaments. It’s a photo of me when I was pretty darn little with my brother’s arm wrapped around me.
Because our tree isn’t real, we like to hang wreaths on the inside of our doors. Nice way to bring in the wonderful Christmas scent. And the stockings were hand made by Grandma. Very special. A Peek at the Porch
Thanks for taking the tour of our home at Christmas! I am ready to party with Michaela {Michaela Noelle Designs} and crew today. She is hosting a holiday décor link party! Come on over.

Love all the evergreens. And touches of gold and silver give it extra glitter. Such lovely decorations.

Very very pretty and great photos. I just can't get enough of your hand written wall, gorgeous!
Everything looks fabulous!!!! I love the different angle on your porch too…it's almost like I can imagine your entire house now! I can pretend I've actually been there in person!
Oh wow Courtney! It's all so beautiful. I adore that fork art too:) And I never thought to hang our cards on the garland but I think I may do that this year b/c I don't have a good place for them. The ornament of you with your brother's arm around you must be so special to you! You were an adorable little girl- the pigtails!!! 🙂
Everything is dazzling! You always do such a lovely job styling a space! And the lined kitchen cabinets completely make my heart skip a happy beat!
I also have much love for that card garland, so fantastic!

I'm blown away, girl! The whole house is so festive…it looks straight out of a magazine! Love all the garland…especially Candy Cane peeking out! My kids named theirs "Red". Wow. I guess that's what happens when you let a 3 and 4 year-old pick out elf names! (c:
Thank you so much for your sweet comment on my blog! I love your tour, but I especially love (1) Those fabulous trees on your mantle (2) How you hung the stockings on a ribbon—brilliant and (3) That subway sign! Thanks for the inspiration!
I love your beautiful home! Snooping around is one of my favorite things to do in bloggyworld! Your blog is so perfectly organized~ LOVE it! I'm glad you left me a sweet note so I could come for a visit! I'm so excited to be your newest FB and GFC follower and would love it if you'd return the "love" on your next visit!!!
XO, Aimee

There's not anything in your house I wouldn't want to "borrow". 😉 So unoriginal to say, but everything is beautiful.
Your little one's art work…oh my goodness. The best. Best! Love the wreaths through the window (and love the wood blinds, too!), your mantel is gorgeous (I just wish I had the need for a mantel!) and…I could go on and on. Gorgeous!!! Like right out of a movie.
I knew about Michaela's link-up, but not the others yet. Thanks! I linked my "How to NOT take bad pics of your Christmas tree". Haha! 😉
Haha. I just saw the comment from Aubrey above me say it looked "right out of a magazine". See? Told ya.
Gorgeous Courtney, the garland with your photos hung on it is a perfect idea for the holidays.
Very beautiful and festive! Deidre~

Happy Holidays!

Everything looks so pretty! I love the Christmas photos on the garland!
Beautiful Christmas decorating! I love the wallpaper at the back of your kitchen cupboards. Would you be willing to share the name of it?
So sparkly and pretty with lots and lots of texture. Courtney it is gorgeous! Will be thinking about you & Carmel. Have fun!
