Hello and happy Monday! I’m way behind on our annual Christmas home tour post, but since I still have a couple of days until Christmas is officially here, I figured I’d still post it.
I love holiday decorating— if I had a bigger house, I would be the lady down the street with more than one tree…maybe two…or three…
I’ll start with our main floor and I’ll add sources for the items I can find online!
We don’t have a fireplace, so I used these stocking hangers from Pottery Barn (similar here). Harper’s stocking is from Pottery Barn Kids and ours are from West Elm.
Even my nails are festive— this is a new color called “double breasted jacket” by Essie. It’s a true, bright, Christmas red.
Here is a view of our main floor (kitchen, dining and living room):
I found these boxwoods at Marshall’s last year! I absolutely love boxwoods. So simple and pretty year round and for the holidays, especially if you love greenery like I do!
Here’s a view from the stairs to our kitchen…
Harper’s nursery is the only other room of the house that has some holiday decor. I’ve added a felt ball garland to her bookshelf from Craftastic parties and an adorable burlap reindeer banner I scored ℅ groopdealz.
This little flamingo wearing a Christmas hat was an amazon find!
Harper’s mini tree is from Target, as is the little white reindeer.
Tonight after dinner, we headed to River Oaks to drive around and look at the beautiful Christmas lights. Kevin and I have been doing that every Christmas since I moved here and it was so fun for Harper to see all of those beautifully-lit homes. There were also horses and carriages there and every time we saw one we would slow down more because she wanted to see the “neigh neighs.” She actually cried when we drove away from the last one we saw…so I’m guessing she’s going to love the play horse we bought her for Christmas (on sale!)
I was able to snap some adorable shots of Harper “reading” today while I took some pictures of her room decor (dress by gymboree —on sale for $9.99, bow by willowcrowns)

I love your house- looks beautiful. Did you get a new nespresso machine? I remember seeing other nespresso machine.

Thank you! Yes we did get a new one (different model) our other one was making lattes that literally tasted like water. After reading many people having the same issue with This model (in reviews and I line forums) we decided to return it and purchase the model with better reviews. Initially it worked great but it stopped producing good lattes and for such an expensive machine that wasn't acceptable.

Thanks so much for your reply! I'm actually having the same issue with my machine :(. Did you return it to nespresso? Mine is only about a year old…not sure if it's still under warranty though. Which machine did you get instead? Thanks again. ( I think it's so sweet that you reply every comment)

We actually exchanged it at bed bath and beyond. I had my receipt and the box and they're awesome about returns.

I LOVE that burlap reindeer banner. We barely got a tree up this year. Maybe I'll pin this and save it for next year's inspiration. 🙂

Love your Christmas decor! This is a little off topic, but in the picture with the mini reindeer under the quatrefoil mirror, do you remember where you found the branches with the white petals on them? Are they capiz?
[email protected] says
the branches are silver dollar branches from Z Gallerie
