Christmas has ARRIVED!

Sunday, November 29, 2009

Christmas has arrived at the Hendrickson household!! We spent Sunday getting our tree, setting it up, and getting out all our Christmas decor. We lit our Christmas candle and "dressed" the tree. It lasted all of about an hour, but it was too much fun!

First, I made this wreath!! I was very impressed with myself! I followed the directions that Thrifty Decor Chick gave and improvised some...love the colors! All I used was a wire hanger, cheap Christmas ball ornaments, and ribbon! I should have used a little hot glue though...if you decide to make one, head over to her website and check it out!



Here is our tree :) I love getting out all the ornaments and remembering fun times. We have a Rockettes ornament from our trip to New York City last Christmas, many Gator ornaments, and Danny's favorite, "Festivus for the Rest of Us" Sienfeld ornament. I will have to show you all more later on...


Here is our sweet little train...


This is my bookcase where I added little bits of Christmas with some globes up top and my favorite shelf below with my Gator handtowel and the loving mice.



I adored these mice when I was little. They were always a staple in my room growing up. They are just so sweet!


Here is our TV stand where we are hanging our stockings with care....they say hope and peace. I got the stocking holders at Target and they are so cute! $20 for 2 and they are nice and heavy.



There you have it! Our Christmas tour is complete. I don't normally go all out for Christmas inside the house, but we have some plans for outside that I will keep you posted on :)

Love your Christmas decor! That game this past weekend makes me hang my head in shame. Victory to the swamp I guess. Boo for me, yay for you.

Soooo I totally printed out the tutorial for that wreath weeks ago haha! Great minds think alike :)
I love the colors you chose! I haven't made one yet but I'm thinking maybe silver and green??
