Christmas 2011 Home Tour

I wanted to create a post that will have all the links to our Christmas decor this holiday season. There are so many posts and parties out there that I was getting dizzy trying to go back thru them all. No worries though there are a few new pics I have not shared yet!;)

Welcome to From Our Front Porch To Yours!

This is the transom window above our front door. I took the shutters from the fall mantel display and decided to use them here.

A view of our banister from the foyer. This is a new display this year. I really like how it turned out. 

This year our manger found a new home.

Please No advertising and PLEASE NO MORE than 3 links from the SAME party goer. If you find your post deleted it is not because I am a meany, I just have to make sure the rules are being followed.

If you are new around here I would love it if ya become a follower:)

Living Room Holiday Decor 2011

Yesterday I showed you this view into our living room from the front of our home. Today I thought I would share the rest of our living room all decked out for Christmas.

This is the view from our breakfast room.

Even our tv armoire gets into the holiday spirit. I added the ribbons to the doors last year and hang some of my favorite Christmas cards on there when they come in.

I love our angel! I purchased her at HobLob at half off last year. The candles on either side are really neat. They flicker like real candles and actually glow a real candle light and not orange like most. 

Simple table coffee table decor. 

The current home of our Lego Advent calendar prizes! 

Partial view of our fireplace. If ya wanna see more head on over to my Holiday Mantel Party! Lots more pics there!

This is the small area off to the left of our fireplace.

Last year it held our manger but this year it holds another one of my most coveted holiday decorations! I just love this vintage porcelain tree! I purchased it off the local yard sale site a few years back for cheap. It even plays music!! I decided this would make a great spot for the cardboard vintage like houses I purchased at HomeGoods a few months ago. I just adore those as well. They light up which the boys love. I was irritated though because the one did not work after putting batteries in it but no worries. I ended up taking the light box out of the bottom and just stuck a small faux tea light under there and it works just fine. 

The boys love Nutcrackers so I try to add a few every year. 

If ya wanna see what this area looked like last year click here.

Well that is ALMOST all of our Christmas decor. I still have to share the foyer and our banister upstairs so stay tuned!:)
Hope your weekend is going well!
