Gingerbread Decor in the Kitchen

 There is something I just love about gingerbread decor! I think it’s because it’s so festive and yummy looking. The only problem is that it makes me want to eat! Ha! Good thing it only stays out for a little while! πŸ˜‹

Front Door View

I just hung the front door garland a few days ago. I was procrastinating! I love the view looking in from the front door because the mantel is the first thing you see when you walk in. I always try to make it stand out since it’s the focal point of the room. You definitely can’t miss it!! More pictures to come soon!

Gracie Bell in front of the Christmas Mantel

This is for the cat lovers! 😻 I snapped this picture of my beautiful Gracie Bell in front of the mantel the other day. She is my rescue cat I found under the fence a few years ago with part of her leg missing. I’m so glad I found her on that hot summer day! After a few surgeries she was fine and doesn’t even know she’s missing a leg! It’s amazing how they adapt! I just ❤️ her so much!

Oh Christmas Tree!πŸŽ„

Decorating this tree is always fun but a lot of work! We are enjoying the lights and it’s always the first thing I turn on in the mornings. I will share a night pic soon! πŸŽ„

Gingerbread Door Swag

I made this cute gingerbread door swag for a customer and shipped it today! I will be adding one to my Etsy store this weekend. I just love the gingerbread/peppermint theme! Probably because I love sweets! Check my store this weekend for gingerbread items and more lantern swags! πŸŽ„
