 Well I finally have some things
listed on Etsy

I don't know why I decided to tackle 
A New Blog
Christmas Decorating
and getting my 
Etsy Shop going at
  the same time but that is what I am doing


I made several Dress Form Pin Cushions 
this summer, with the design help 
of my 11 year old Granddaughter

I sold several at craft shows and will be 
listing the rest on Etsy 
along with my Shadow Boxes 
and framed Santas

I hope everyone has a great Wednesday
and don't forget to check out

Still Decorating for Christmas



 I'm not sure how long my 
Christmas Decorating 
will take

Here are a few photos of the work in progress.
This is my Living Room from a Distance.


 As you can see, it is not All White.
My Corner Cupboard is, but
my Santa Collection includes Reds.










I had planned to decorate the Mantel
in all White too, and went in search of 
a large Snow Scene to hang above it.
When I saw this mirror it 
  just called my name.
So Black and White became the theme for this area


Of course Silver, White and Greens  
were the
perfect accents.






This is as far as I have gotten so far.

You will also notice that there is no 
Christmas Tree in this room.
Just this small one next to the mantel.


Murphy will not leave this little one alone, 
so who knows what he would do with a 
full size tree.
His is just too cute, but such a 
"bad boy".

Thanks for checking out what I have done so far.
More photos to follow in the coming days.

My First Blog

 
 
Good morning and welcome to my first blog.
 
 
I'm just a little bit nervous about this after seeing
so many amazing blogs.
 
 
I love County Cottage Decor and anything White.
 
 
 I will be posting photos of vignettes
in my home.
 
I love rearranging things with the seasons,
but it all comes back to
white.
 
I have a small corner cupboard in my living room
which was made several years ago
by a local cabinetmaker.
 
Of Course it is White.
 
When I managed an Antique/Consignment shop
a few years ago.
I decided to use it in the shop.
 
It made a beautiful display piece for
Baby things new and old.
 
Unfortunately we had a fire and my
beautiful cabinet was damaged.
 
The contents were totally lost.
 
After many months I decided it was time to revive it
and get it back into my living room.

My husband sanded it down to the bare wood
and I painted it white,
 dry brushing the inside for a more shabby look.
