After decorating for Christmas this year, it looked like Christmas exploded.
I have some new things this year. This antique baby strolling sleigh is so cool! I got it at an auction. I put in a lap quilt, a snowman (of course!), a sock monkey, and my antique teddy bear. I adore the scrolling of the runners.
Also new this year, are my old ice skates and snowman figurine.
Carolers.
More antique skates and a sign I made on burlap.
I added greenery to my firewood basket.
And lights to my antique popcorn popper and lantern.
And finally, a new birch twig wreath.
I also added some burlap pieces with writing on them to my antique sleigh bells. And also to my little sleigh. I'll show you the technique for doing this in a later post.
And just some pictures of the rest of the decorations.

Very festive! You have a good eye for decorations.
ReplyDeleteHow did you illuminate the lantern?
Thank you!
DeleteI put a string of lights and some pillow fluff inside the glass. I was able to leave the cord for the lights out so I could plug it in. I did the same thing in the popcorn popper.
Looks real nice Langela, I have always said you know how to decorate. You also have an eye for antiques.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Gordon. I love antiques and decorating.
