Christmas Mantel 2012

Hello everyone hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving with Friends and Family Or like me it was quite, Tia and I kinda hung out and watched movies and decorated the house. I found the cutest mercury glass battier operated lights at Target I just had to have them, got the last two boxes. A couple of years ago I hung snowflakes form the ceiling and thought I would do them again this year they look so pretty at night. I'm still having trouble finding some things with the color I want to do, But hopefully I will find what I am looking for. Or I will have to just work with what I have again this year.. So here are a few pictures to kick off the Holiday season.. 









thanks for stopping by and be sure to check in and see the rest of what I will be doing around the house..

 Hugs
~~Pattie~~

    I knew I would love your Christmas decor! Love those new mercury lights you found too. They're perfect on your mantel! Love the mix of cream and silver with the greenery. I have alot of that in my decor this year too. I just worked on my mantle tonight and did the outside of the house today. I'm already pooped! I think we'll start the tree tomorrow. Love the idea of hanging snowflakes above your mantel too. It's the perfect finishing touch.

    Looks beautiful Pattie...you have such great taste. Hope all is well with you. Have not seen you in awhile. Tell Miss Tia I said hello and that Alex is looking more and more like his Dad:) I think she would find him even cuter.

    I had to come back & correct the comment above! lol After I posted, I thought, geez, I hope she isn't offended by my saying "understated". I was using the word in a good way. It really is a beautiful mantel!
