Oh There's No Place Like Home for the Holidays!

Love these vintage skates.  Simple vignette! 

This rusty bird case was missing the bottom, but was perfect to cover a candle on my front porch.  The sign  below is vintage.

My front porch bench is all done up for Christmas.  The sign is made from a door panel and painted with chalk board paint.  The license plate was then added.  The red piece below the tree is actually a chicken feeder.

These candleholders were from a church and I have a pair.  They look stunning all lite up.  My urns have a simple spruce tip and a lone red Christmas ball. 

These were just birch twigs laid onto the chandelier.  The bulbs were hung by thin wire for a dramatic affect!  Unfortunately my kitty loves this arrangement, too!

This is a great way to arrange a collection of white flower pots!  Makes a statement.

This is one of my favorite pieces.  It was a plant stand from a front step.  Glass was already added to the top when i purchased it.  I added an additional grate  to the top.  The tree is sitting in a lamp base.  The corbel I simply added the stencil, key and then waxed it. 

Love this little vignette.  The votive holders were added to the chippy post.  Some old skates and greens were added to a vintage gate.  The sign at the bottom was tin taken from a ceiling. 

This is an idea a got from Stacey of The Blessed Nest and can be found at http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/936/old-window-picture-frame (thanks, Stacey!).   I printed the word off my computer and copied it onto the window with a paint stick.   I also added the votive holders. 

This "wave" was purchased as is.  Thought it was a perfect addition to my  bathroom!
