{Deck the Halls} Southern State of Mind Christmas Home Tour

in Lifestyle on 12/06/13

Oh there’s no place like home for the holidays!
 I just love bringing the magic of the holidays into my home this time of year.

It’s time for the Southern State of Mind’s Christmas Home Tour!

Welcome to our holiday home!

Where we love our Nutcracker collection…

and get excited about using Christmas plates…

and have a “thing” for antlers, chevron and gold…

oh yeah, and burlap…

we can find a use for driftwood any time of year…

we often decorate with yard clippings…

and we have a DIY wreath for every season…

we like leopard and navy…especially at Christmas…



we keep our beloved animals warm…

and we can’t get enough white milk glass…

we love having the tree with family keepsakes…

but mommy needs her pretty peacock tree too…

we like to (sock) monkey around…

we love to host guests during the holidays…

and we love. our. coffee.
Merry Christmas, y’all! 
Thank you so much for joining Southern State of Mind 
for the tour of my home decked for the holidays. 
Be sure to check out all of the other great homes on this Tour of Homes!
Wishing you and yours the merriest!

I am so excited to be participating in the Christmas Party Tour of Homes that is taking place all this week- 24 bloggers are sharing their Christmas homes over 4 days…

    Looks so warm and cozy! I especially love your scarf wrapped moose and your decked out mantle! I especially love the combo of more rustic elements like burlap paired with bold black and white! It looks amazing!
