Christmas Spirit

what i love most about transforming our house for Christmas:

1) decor. i think i’ve said it before, but i truly love the thrill of decorating the house for Christmas. for me, one of the most enjoyable things is figuring out how to use the same decorations in a different way year after year. this year was no different. same stuff. new fluff. i love it!

2) lights. i simply can’t get enough of soft white lights. not colored though. just white. the simplicity of the white glow puts me in a delightfully peaceful mood.

3) smells. fire up the hobble creek wassail candle and i’m in heaven. not too potent. just a little subtle spice to tickle my nose buds. 😉

4) music. i love jazz. harry connick, ella fitzgerald, brenda lee, and all the oldies that make me want to cuddle up on the couch with my lovey.

5) Christ. i love nativities here, there and everywhere. the silver ones, the wooden ones, the toy ones, the puppet ones. i love every opportunity we have to remember the gift of our Savior this season.

  1. Hey Melissa, you stole my comment! Cherie, you have an amazing talent! That is one thing we are missing out on this year with our move….no Christmas decorations. Without them, it’s feeling a little humbug-ish. Thanks for sharing and giving me that Holiday boost.

  2. Cherie…LOVE the decor. The true Christmas Spirit is alive and well in your house. I felt it with just the pics. Beautiful!
