Christmas Shelf Ideas…

November 23, 2012 By Meegan 5 Comments

So, did you get up early today for some Black Friday shopping?  What deals did you score??  I went out and found a few gifts for the grand-kiddos.  I love the cold, and the hustle and bustle of shopping.  It helps me get in the spirit of Christmas and family time.

SOOOO…Last year, the day after Christmas, I started my blog.  Most of you weren’t around then, so I thought I would share my Christmas Mantel from last year.  (Pardon the photography-I was/am still learning.  I am glad I am a “little” better now)

I love white and blue as you know already.  The “Kissing Carolers” are from my Grandma’s Christmas decoration collection

Another view of my shelves.  The frame was made last year when I started the blog. I have collected icicles as long as I can remember.  I bought the “Nativity” when we had only been married 3 yrs.  So it is now 31 yrs old.  It is a Christmas staple in our home.

Hubby loves Christmas snow globes.  I try to buy him a new and unique one every year.  I will share his whole collection as I begin to share our Christmas decor.  I think he has 16 + as of now.  I also set up 3 Christmas trees lined up together.  I have new plans and a new vision for them this year.

Do your Christmas decorating visions change every year, too?

Thanks for letting me share some of my Christmas past with you.  I am REALLY looking forward to Christmas future!!

Christmas is coming fast.  Are you ready?  I have most of the shopping done.  Just a few more gifts, then it is time to wrap ’em up!!

See you soon on  Pinterest, Facebook, Hometalk, Google +, Stumble Upon, and now LinkedIn!!

Make it a Fantastic Friday!!

    Your collections are lovely, Meegan. We collect globes too and display them on our built-in shelves in the tv room. I change things up year to year but there are always some things that never go away like my nativity.

    Great decorations! I don’t have a lot of Christmas decor right now, so it’s pretty much the same stuff going up year after year. But now that I have a blog, maybe that will change! Thanks for sharing at The Fun In Functional!
