So in the last few days I have been trying to take some decent pics of my home for Christmas and the weather here in TN has been gloomy,so this is a good as it's gonna get! I love my house and my front porch,this year I did something totally different and painted a door and placed all my wicker around the porch so I could have this corner to decorate with the seasons. I love it.
As you walk into the foyer on the left is a side table decorated with lots of penguins (which is a joke to my family but that is another story)I can once again leave some of this out for the winter months as well.
Also to the left is a room that is getting ready to get a complete make over and become my office/work room,but for now it is all of our travels and this tree holds most of our ornaments to the places here in the states or out of the country that we have been to.
And this sweet pic of santa with the globe just fits perfect in this room (for now!)
From the other side of the hallway is a hot air balloon piece that I made years ago.It is very meaningful to me since my hubby proposed to me on one of those dangerous things! It fits perfect here.
And then there are the steps.I wanted so badly to have lights again this year.There are no plugs and that makes it hard.I did buy some battery LED lights but they didn't look good so I took them back and just put some more greenery up.I had these tags made and they fit great. We painted out stairs and banisters last summer to black and I love them!
As you go down the hall,there is my kitchen and mostly where we hang out.It too is getting a make over as well.I am going to be painting my cabinets soon!
The window was placed up last spring and I think it's awesome..my middle son thinks it's a stupid idea..but hey what does he know! My dining room is next.This is my fav room of the whole house.If only we used it!
I just recently painted my whole house while in our adoption process from Ghana,Afica..It was the only thing that saved me from hurting someone! HA To the right is our family room with my new baby (he's not a baby but he's my baby) in the floor.This room is just a mix or red and white with "Father Christmas African Santa's in the room.I love the feel of it. I remember being small and our tree was red and white,maybe the reason I love the colors so much.Most of the things in this room have been repainted,made over several times!
And the last room is our family room upstairs.It is the oldest tree we have owned and has all of our family ornaments on it with handmade ones from the kids.It is nice and big so we have plenty of room for some new ones this year.
That's it right now folks.I am up to my eyeballs in jewelry for Christmas so have a blessed day.Here is my shop if you want to take a look https://www.etsy.com/shop/KeeferStyleCreations

It looks awesome as always for Christmas this year! Love all the meaningful, cherished accents reminding us of family and faith! Looking forward to helping others accent their homes w/ the same in the new year!
