Christmas Home Tour: Blogger Stylin’ Home Tours December 8, 2014 | Hi there! If you’re here from Thistlewood Farms, so glad you’re here! I’m so excited to share our home with you again through Lindsay’s Blogger Stylin’ Home Tours: Christmas Edition. Remember I shared my favorite room, then our Fall tour, then our Thanksgiving table earlier this year via BSHT? Secretly, I’ve been most excited for the Christmas tour because it truly is my most favorite time of the year, but if I’m being honest this was definitely the hardest one of all to pull off. Unlike the other tours, I was feeling a little more traditional and ended up using bold color sparingly (which is clearly not my norm) and stuck with metallics throughout to tie it all together. Once it was all done though, it’s been so fun to enjoy with our little lady. She loves the tree and looking at all of the ornaments and the reflection of the lights and sparkle in here eyes make my heart want to explode. So here you go, take a tour through our decked halls…I hope that you enjoy! And if you want to see what our home looks like “normally” see our Home Tour here. I went with a fairly simple front door and finally incorporated magnolia into our decor. The entry came together at the last minute when I stumbled upon this huge ginger jar at Goodwill (and almost fainted). It brought in the little bit of color that I was missing, but is still a very traditional piece. Did I mention that paper whites are my absolute favorite. The family room is where I brought it a fun pop of color to accent the metallics. I found these sequin stockings at HomeGoods and cannot get over how much I love them. They are the most fun accent and I love how the reflect the garland lights. Our formal living room is where the tree lives and it completely lights up the entire front of our house. I went completely traditional here with neutrals and metallics and an unexpected pop of whimsy in the “fa la la” Oh Joy for Target banner. The tree is “frosted” aka not fully flocked, but I do love how it reflects the light. Honestly, the majority of our ornaments are from the Dollar Tree (the giant magnolias being my favorite newest addition) and I also added some brass chain that I bought by the foot at Home Depot. My favorite ornaments are still the sunburst DIYs that I did last year. See the tutorial here. DIY Faux Hide tutorial here. Thank you so much for coming into our home and sharing in this most special time of year with us. If you are new here, WELCOME and I surely hope you’ll come back!
