Merry & Bright Holiday Home Tour–The Finale!

Merry and Bright FINAL

Well friends, it’s sad to see the Merry & Bright Holiday Home Tour come to an end.  Over the last two weeks me and the 8 other bloggers that are a part of the tour have shared our Christmas trees, front doors, holiday tablescapes and much more.  I hope you’ve been inspired  by all the holiday merriment.

If you’re coming over from OMG Lifestyle Blog, welcome.  It’s been so fun to see Elaine’s beautiful holiday decor over the last three weeks.I know you’ve enjoyed it as much as I have.

With just 9 days left before Christmas, I can officially say I’m finished decorating!  Today I’m sharing the final holiday touches I added around the house (warning: lots of photos ahead).

BEDROOM DECOR

Christmas Bedroom 2015

One of my favorite rooms to decorate at Christmas is the bedroom.  I love lying in bed at night surrounded by holiday cheer.

I hung a wreath on the headboard and draped the mirrors over the nightstand with holly leaf garland.

I kept the black and white pillows I had on the bed all summer and added the fur-trimmed tartan pillow from HomeGoods.

One set of standard pillowcases was changed out to red.

The black and white dot ottoman at the foot of the bed is dressed up with red and green pillows and a red throw.

Christmas Decor 2015-6

I placed the lighted marquee JOY signed I made last year at a Home Depot Do-it-Herself workshop on top of the armoire and draped some garland around it.

The JOY sign is on a timer and I go to sleep each night with the soft glow of the lights.

I wanted to address garland to my dress form last year but never got around to it.  This year I made it happen.

Instead of fresh greenery, I used artificial greenery sprays and hung them from a belt that is wrapped at the waist.

LITTLE TOUCHES IN THE KITCHEN

Nothing major in the kitchen except this corner vignette with a mix of vintage, new and handcrafted items.

MY WORKSPACE

I replaced the inspiration board that normally hangs over my desk with this chalkboard and added a small Christmas tree in a brass urn next to the lamp.

MY HOLIDAY GIFT WRAP

After making my mobile giftwrap crate, I got busy wrapping gifts.

In addition to wrapping gifts with paper, I placed some gifts in decorative boxes I picked up at Target and Container Store.  The solid colored boxes mixed great with my wrapping paper designs so I’ve got a fun mix of packages under the tree.

SPECIAL TOUCHES

I framed my childhood stocking after seeing client do this with hers and hung it on my bedroom door.

Christmas Decor 2015-5

I found an oversized brass scales of justice at a thrift store and placed it on the table near the tree.  I set small gifts inside the tray.

Happy Friday!

I wanted to pop in today and share how I decorated our bedroom for Christmas.

My goal was to keep things simple and incorporate my holiday tartan plaid theme in some way.  I also wanted to use the JOY marquee sign I made last month at the Home Depot Do-It-Herself workshop.

I hope you enJOY the tour!

Since the color foundation of our bedroom is black and white, it was easy for me to add in red, green and plaid along with a few holiday touches.

I love lots of pillows on the bed and also love to mix patterns and colors.  The black and white sheets came from HomeGoods are my absolute favorite. I also purchased the red pillowcases from HomeGoods.

The black shams and quilt came from Target and the red and white patterned pillow covers and green velvet cover are from Ikea.

I added some silver decor, all purchased at Hobby Lobby to my night stand.  During the day I move the disco ball to the ottoman at the foot of our bed so it sparkles in the sun.

The JOY sign is a project that blogger and woodworker Ana White developed for the Home Depot workshop series.  To make my sign unique, I added the molding trim and outlined each letter with gold metallic paint.

The light have a timer so the sign comes on in the evening and goes off right before we go to bed.

Our black armoire was the perfect perch for the JOY sign and I hung some greenery and ornaments from each corner to make it feel really festive.

{and check out that red and hot pink throw I snagged at C.Wonder for 50% off.  It just so happens to be my signature color combo–yeah me!}

I hung a wreath on the head of the bed and kept it simple with a red and white bow.

I drape the reversible scarf/throw I purchased from Purple Peridot over the foot of the bed when I’m not wearing it.

The red pillow covers are from Ikea and the black and white striped monogrammed pillow was a gift from my friend Tina who blogs at Encore Creations.
