A White Christmas ~ Primitive Farmhouse Style

Some simple snaps of the farmhouse in transition for the holidays...


my Thanksgiving/Christmas cactus in the sunny kitchen window...


my coffee-potted & funnel-topped feather tree in the diningroon ~



a view of a window dressed with a favorite scrap of early lacework...



My tarnished silver waiting for tea & gingerbread ~



here's the mantle ~ semi-decorated...



I love white bottlebrush wreaths !!!


more snaps to come soon!
(I'll share pics of the shop too, but right now it is a wreck!)


Have a beautiful Tuesday my Friends!


blessings from the farm,
Lori

    ...Goodness, your home is lovely! :o)

    ...I thought of you the other day, a friend and I were at a shop that features primitive style items and against one wall she had a mantle, much like yours, and inside she had a prim' hooked rug that "filled in" the bare space in its entirety. I thought to myself how wonderful that would be to have several hooked rugs done in a folky style to change out the seasons for your mantle. I know that would be a lot of hooking for a rug that size but then again, it's just a thought... ;o)

    ...Enjoy your day!

    ...Blessings :o)
