With every holiday I try to simplify and streamline my decor. No tree this year, again. Instead, I added pops of Christmas around the house. Follow me as I travel around my home adding holiday decor. In the kitchen I used preserved boxwood, fresh magnolia and cedar cuttings. I really wanted to add a garland to my hood. I thought I'd use magnets to attach it. I was disappointed when I realized that it wasn't magnetic. It remains unadorned.

I added some velvet ribbon and gold ornaments under my demijohn.

My Santos only needed some magnolia. The print joined the holiday decor with a bough of cedar.

All my bread board needed was some ribbon and a Magnolia sprig.

I swapped the dried artichokes around the base of the boxwood topiary with some golden pears, then added a ribbon to get it in to the holiday mood.

Are you keeping it simple this year or going all out?

Next holiday room will be my entry. I used a garland there and added some oversized ornaments. Check it out this weekend.
Any suggestions for attaching a garland to a hood without creating any damage would be greatly appreciated.
