Christmas decorations
November 28, 2007We didn’t really do much decorating last year since we’d only been in the house a few months. However this year, it’s time to get the spirit and get to decorating. I’m kicking myself because I waited too long to go to Linens N Things and they’re sold out of the pre-lit trees in urns that I want for the front porch. I called another location and I think they have some so keep your fingers crossed.
Hubby already put up our wreath and will put up the indoor garland this weekend. We’re going to get candelabras for all the windows, garland for the mantle and stockings and that’s probably it for this year. We may add some more outdoor decor next year though. We stopped by Target after hubby’s game last night and their candelabras were $5 each, which isn’t that bad but we need 14 of them. Sheesh.
How do you guys decorate for Christmas?
I’m a minimalist. I like white lights, simple decorations, a few poinsettias, and contemporary designs. Last year, I was really into it because it was my first Christmas in my first house. This year, not so much. When Dec rolls around, I may put up a tree and throw a wreath on the front door but that’s it. Just the smell of them (nothing artificial) will put me in the holiday spirit.

I’m spending Christmas at my mom’s place this year so I’ll probably just get a wreath and some lights for my front bushes. Nothing much inside the house.
