Decking Our Halls {2012}

I love putting out my Christmas decorations! It really makes it feel like the holidays are here!
I didn't go too crazy this year, pregnancy and a 2 year old consume my life now, so decorating is more of a luxury than a necessity ;)
But here's some of what I got up this year!






  This is what I'm most proud of this year. I saw something similar on pinterest, but it was selling on etsy for like $40! But in my mind of course, I think "I can make that!" So, I did! It's not perfect, but I like it! I had to take it down to get a decent picture of it, but normally its on the wall.
I used the 'vaseline' technique to get the chippy paint look!

  2. I love all of your decorations! I wanted to decorate a little more than I was actually able to. Expenses got in the way! =] I think my neighbor has that "Merry Christmas" sign that is on your tree. I think she told me she got it from Hobby Lobby. I really like the sign you made at the end too! I don't mind at all when things I make don't come out completely perfect - that's how I know I made it. =]

  3. Everything looks lovely! I think I'm loving that Merry Christmas sign on the tree. What a great statement. And the sign is FABULOUS. I've never used the vaseline technique, but I think I need to try. It's a great look.

    Thanks for linking up to Dare to DIY! Really appreciate it. It'd be great if you could link back to one of the four hosts.

  4. Awesome Christmas decor! I love the sign you made, and also the Noel blocks. And your stockings are so cute, too. Such a cozy, festive look. Great work, it looks so Christmasy and lovely.
