Not Just A Pink Christmas....

The table is set with yes, red, gold, and cream! I am definitely a pink girl and love pink for Christmas, but I have always loved collecting dishes and the Holiday Lenox was my first set I bought. I just ran outside and cut holly from our trees and set the mood with battery candles! Easy peasy.....Now there`s food to cook, late minute wrapping and playing Christmas music.....










There`s always something in the oven this time of year. Mac and cheese and my sweet potatoe casserole are the two staples.
So back to cooking, my family is on their way....
Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year!

Funky Stockings!

For years we`ve stayed with the traditional needlepoint stockings until several years ago I decided we needed some whimsy for Santa! The old stockings still get hung for the boys and one dog....

My husband`s stocking...It says "Believe." He`s the biggest kid of all at Christmas! I bought this several years ago. It`s fun and funky! He makes sure that I remember it`s his every year! It`s a Krinkles stocking....




This is my stocking... The year I bought this I was into polka dots...This is a Krinkles stocking...Santa better put some green in there!


My Mom`s new stocking several years ago. This is a Krinkles stocking...


One year I decorated Kory`s room with jesters. This was a special stocking that year. Katherine`s Collections...


We still love the traditional needlepoint stockings....These are oldies but goodies! I kept forgetting whose was whose so I tagged each one...



Whether you have funky stockings, traditional needlepoint, or hand made..... Santa`s coming soon to fill them! So let`s hang them up and get ready....



What`s your stocking looking like this year??

Pink Reindeer??

Yep! Just when I thought I had all the pink Christmas I needed, I went to my friend, Jill`s etsy shop and bought these! Aren`t they cute? I love how she embellished them with tiny rhinestone earrings and bling! Just a little pink for Santa to pull his sleigh.
Join me for Pink Saturday. Just go
here to see what others might be decorating pink this year...

Open House at Gypsy Moon.....

My friend, Brenda Hawkins had a wonderful Christmas Open House last weekend at her store "Gypsy Moon." She is so good at displays and decor! I bought a few things and had some refreshments while I was there. Did I mention she is also a gourmet cook? She really is a petite Martha Stewart!
Here a few photos of her store. It`s located on the corner of the square in Watertown, Tn. Come and visit her store....it`s worth the trip!








Besides Christmas, Brenda has vintage clothing, hats, antiques and collectibles, and her paper mache`. She is one talented lady and I`m so proud to call her my friend!

Dreaming Of A Pink Christmas....


I`ve been dying trees and wreaths! I finally decided to give it a try. I have been gluing and glittering these pink trees (Of course I dyed them first). I love a Pink Christmas!


This is a plain cream colored bottle brush wreath with plastic ornaments...not so my style. So.....I dyed this one pink!


This one blue...



I still have some glittering and decorating to do. I`m dreaming and creating a Pink Christmas.


What color is your Christmas this year?
