Before Christmas exploded, I cleaned the dining room so I would have a blank slate to start my Christmas decorating.
The bay window is waiting patiently for the tree.
Yes, I cleaned the dining room, but I did not, however, clean the living room.
Or the kitchen…and I resisted the temptation to buy myself a new, black garbage can at Target the other day, and put it on my Christmas list, instead.
After some virtual shopping with my best friend 3 states away and my cell phone, I bought some new fabric for the china cabinet…hard to see here, but better pictures are coming, I promise.
Now, it’s time to crank up the Christmas tunes, make some fudge, and get to work!

ReplyDeleteI really liked your post today..I loved how you cleaned out the dining room to get a blank slate and then you took a pic of your living room and I lost it.. I laughed.. that was so funny.. It reminds me of my house.. My couch is full of yarn, I'm making crochet hats for my grandgirls..

ReplyDeleteWow... I wish I had done the same... I bet it all looks so nice. Instead, at my house, my kitchen floor is all tore out and I don't think we will be getting the new floor until after Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a beautiful home you have! Wish I had done a proper big clean before all the decorations..
