I can't believe how close Christmas is! I'm trying my best to soak in all the Christmas spirit I can, but I have become overwhelming busy the past few weeks that it's so hard to do! So busy that I never did get around to sharing my Christmas entryway and a first, my Christmas bathroom! I have also decorated the playhouse into a wintery candy land which I will probably share with you next week.
Up first is my entryway. I traded out my normal Christmas wreath for a large printed sign with some garland sagged over it. I actually had quite the hard time figuring out this space this year, that's why it's so late to be shared :) I was trying hard to add reds and greys and it just wasn't feeling right. After days of moving things around, I finally told myself, go back to what you know. Neutrals! And like a gem, it was perfect the first time. :)
I'm excited to share more of this space with you in the coming weeks, but here's a sneak peak of a view I've never really have shown. The board and batten up the wall is all new! It has made the biggest difference to my entryway. As for the garland, I just love my railing so much and hate the carpet on my stairs, so the garland usually finds itself on the bottom...showing off the railing and covering up the carpet :)
Here's the other view going towards the door. I found this awesome bucket at Hobby Lobby for the tree. It reminded me a little bit of a trash can, but once the tree was in there I didn't care.
Now for my bathroom. This is the room I chose to do fresh greenery in and oh am I ever so glad I did. Having fresh greens in a somewhat enclosed space makes for a beautiful aroma. I changed around my shelves to fit the small Christmas tree and greens. I also add this 2 second bath caddy board. Seriously took 2 seconds to make. Went into my garage, remembered I had a piece of already stained wood, hoped it would fit, took it into the bathroom, placed it on the tub. It fit. Boom and done :)
This side of my bath I don't share regularly either, but it has a small change that I will once again share with you in the coming weeks. Oh, and this orb chandelier is new! It was the perfect addition :) Most of my fresh greens in this room are tree clippings from a local Christmas tree seller. Got them for free! It's like the best...cheapest, Christmas decor ever.
Can't wait to share the playhouse with you next! But, until then. I'll be here doing some yoga, trying to relax, listening to some Christmas music, drinking hot chocolate, tangling myself up in lights...you know the drill :) Everything I can to feel that magic of Christmas before it is gone!
