Field Trip Friday with What Meegan Makes 2012 Christmas Tour

[slideshow_deploy id=’5749′]
Well here we are…In Christmas season, already!!  And it is Field Trip Friday with What Meegan Makes 2012 Christmas Tour.
I thought it would be fun to share with some of my new readers my home at Christmas time last year.  It still inspires me while I decorate for this year.
As you enter our home this is what you will find.  Snow Globes, Christmas shelves,  and branches  filled with snow flakes and DIY birdhouses.
On my Thrifted coffee table you will enjoy my grandpa’s croquet box filled with snow flakes, ornaments, candle, and book page cones.  I also included my DIY Chalkboards clipped with painted clothes pins.
I love to collect Nativity sets.  This is the first one I received from a friend when she visited Italy.  I love the look under a cloche.
This “Elf on the Shelf” was my mom’s when she was a child in the 40s.  He has been in our home as long as I can remember.
I painted all of these little birdhouses and found some branches outside.  I love this look and a little bit of personality.
I have 3 Christmas trees this year.  Each has it’s on style for the room that they have found home.
Hubby collects snow globes.  His wish is to have enough for each grand baby to eventually choose their own.  They each play music as well. Pure magic for the grand kiddos.
My view from the kitchen into the living room.
Probably one of my favorite rooms in our home during the Christmas season.  The guest bathroom.  The birdhouse was a gift from my dad.  Doesn’t this look so inviting?
Thanks for joining me today for Field Trip Friday with What Meegan Makes 2012 Christmas Tour.  I hope you enjoyed your stay.  Come back again soon!
Make it a Field Trip Friday!
