Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving. Now that it's over we can concentrate on our holiday decorating. That is just what I have been doing. As of yesterday, the Thanksgiving/Fall decor went away, and out came Christmas!!Every year it changes a little bit. I am much more into the vintage look. I also like a lot of silver. I thought I would post a few shots of what I have done so far. It is a slow process. I have to walk around and place things in just the right places. Then I look at it for awhile to see if it makes the cut. (Crazy, I know)
I think my next few posts will be sharing my Christmas decorations with you. I have a lot more to show you.
I can't wait to see all of your decorations as well.
I also wanted to let you know that it is getting closer to my 100 post. I will be having a little giveaway. Can't wait for that!
Enjoy your Turkey Day leftovers!!

So many lovely treasures Rosemary! Your vintage Christmas ornaments are fantastic.
Hi Rosemary, love all your pretty pretties.The mercury glass is beautiful and the tray of vintage ornaments look lovely. Looking forward to more pictures and can't wait to see how you display your vintage lights.
I've been decorating too....but your ahead of me. My place looks like a disaster zone:). Hugs Linda
Who doesn't love anything vintage! Very cute!
Hi! I just came across your blog tonight, and I wanted to let you know about a new giveaway I'm hosting this week! Come check it out - thanks!!
I Really Love Everything so Far... The Vintage Ornaments are Great. I Love the Chest near the Fire Place too... Cant wait to see the rest. I decorated all day yesterday...Have a Great Sunday. Jamie
I'm doing it too - walking about and trying to decide what goes where as my look is changing too. Working in more neutral shades, but of course there are some colorful things I love so much I just can't part with them!
Yours look lovely so far.
By the way - do you know of any way to make silver/silverplate acquire that tarnished appearance quicker? I've bought a silverplated ice bucket which has been polished and I want it tarnished!! Thanks Rosemary.
It's starting to look alot like Christmas around your house! How lovely!
They all look so pretty - I also like to display vintage baubles in dishes.
Rosemary...
I love your decorations!
I too love old silver, ornaments look great in the silver bowl!

You have such beautiful things and your home is always SO wonderful. I know I am going to LOVE visiting this holiday season to see all of your decorating skills! You have such a gift and what I see already is so special.
Have a fun, sweet week dear Rosemary!

Everything looks so pretty, Rosemary! I love your platter of Shiny Brites! =)
I do the same thing, place something, look at for a while, tinker with it, maybe move it maybe not - it's all part of the creative process.
I love the silver platter with the ornaments! Can't wait to see all the other things you do!
Manuela
Oh I love your decor. The bowl full of vintage ornaments is so pretty. I love all the silver you have too.

Oh Rosemary, I love your vintage baubles displayed in your silver bowl. Mixing vintage ornaments and tarnished silver is one of my favorite displays for Christmas.
Look forward to seeing more!!
Have a wonderful
holiday season!
I have been much more vintage in thought lately too. But sadly I do not have the time right now to hunt the things I would like so I guess it will have to wait until next year!!!! I love your sneak peeks. How are the newlyweds????
I cannot wait to see all of your holiday magic!!!"See" you soon!!!!
Very pretty! Looking forward to seeing more.
I know what you mean about walking around to find just the right spot. I do that too, but tend to just leave it there even if it's not "perfect". Just lazy, I guess.
Ohhh...that bird cage is DELICIOUS! And there is nothing I love more than a silver piece full of old ornaments! YUMMMMM
oh lovely wow I bet your house is so christmasy.
I love the bowl of baubles and the little sleigh

Loved that sneak peek & the mercury glass is wonderful. Wish it were mine!
Hugs, DebraK
Just beautiful - I love it all especially your old tarnished silver trays. Great job.
Beautiful Rosemary! Happy Holidays!
