CHRISTMAS INDOORS AND OUT

No Christmas tree again this year.  Instead, I’ve just added touches of Christmas both indoors and out.  For long-time followers, you know that every year I did a tree with a different theme.  It was so much fun and I loved every one of the trees.  I still  have the ornaments from each one stored away in case I ever want to repeat.  If you'd like to see the trees over the years, just click on the highlighted link at the end of this post.

Let’s start indoors with the foyer.

BLUE AND WHITE FOR CHRISTMAS

 I love decorating for the holidays, but it seems that every year I try to streamline what I do.  I try not to get carried away and add magnolia to every piece of art and every chandelier.  I’ve convinced myself that minimal holiday decor is the way to go.  It makes the January after-holiday packing up and storing so much easier.   

I have blue and white in my sunroom.  Instead of changing too much, I removed some items from the mantel and added some holiday decor.

I never thought I would use faux greenery, but these faux cedar garlands and wreath have become part of my new holiday style.

I kept the large ginger jar on the mantel.  The bookshelves on either side of the mantel have more blue and white.

I found the blue and white pagoda trees on Facebook Marketplace.

The woven trees are a Homegoods find from last year.  They tie in with the seagrass furniture already in the room.

As I get older my decor choices have changed.  

How do you approach holiday decor?   Do you go all out or are you on the road to minimalism?
