Well folks, there are only two days left of this 12 Day celebration. Can you believe it? Don’t worry, though, I still have lots more Christmas cheer to share once this party ends.
Welcome to Day 11 of the 12 Days of Christmas!
As many of you know, my Gift Shoppe occupies what used to be the living room in my house. I haven’t had a room to just relax in, so this fall I created that space. What was once a bedroom is now my living room. I’ve painted the space and added shelves, but I’m still figuring out the exact look and style I want.
So, as I work though this design process (which is really on hold until after the holidays!), I decided to bring a bit of Christmas to my space.
I found this adorable silver tinsel tree on eBay and decked it out with some ornaments I picked up at Crate & Barrel. I actually have a really cute idea for this tree, but I’m waiting for a few supplies to arrive by mail. Hopefully, they will be here this week.
I also had several large mason-style jars that I filled with some ornaments that didn’t make it on my tree.
While Christmas shopping last week, I even purchased an orchid. I never had the right spot for one before, but I think the light and temperature in this room will be ideal. Fingers crossed.
I found a home for a few of the bottle brush trees that didn’t really fit with the look of my Christmas vignette. Perfect!
You probably noticed that I hung some cheap Roman shades. I still have no idea what I’m doing for window coverings / curtains, but the lack of blinds was driving me a little crazy. I also picked up another adorable chevron-inspired pillow at T.J. Maxx. Seriously, I have more pillows and lamps than I know what to do with.
So that’s it! A few little holiday touches and I’m ready to go. Who says you need to have a space fully decorated before adding some seasonal magic?
Do you have any spaces in your home that could use a touch of Christmas?
And remember, there is a giveaway every day!

Love the silver tree! I found an old-school aluminum tree with the color wheel and will be displaying that with my old glass ornaments from Christmas past. I can’t wait to see what you do next-but this is lovely!!
I love your Christmas decorations and style!! I need you to come to my house to help me decorate all of my rooms. I could use some serious help with your stylish holiday magic and decor!
The Happiness Project is the best 🙂
Love the fun interplay of colors and the sparkly with the natural. I’m inspired!
I love your new room and your new little tree is the perfect touch! Who says you have to have big and bold everywhere you look? Love the ornaments in a jar idea too! Now you have me curious as to what’s coming in the mail! I shall be back to snoop… 🙂
