It is beginning to feel a lot like Christmas now that we have started our Christmas decorating at Chez Sugar. The teens insisted that we had to put up the decorations on December 1 – I love that they are still so into Christmas. They were in charge of the tree while I set up up most of the other decorations. We are predominantly into Red and White this year.
It was fun to put out many of the new handmade decorations that I have made over the past year. ย The Advent Christmas Houses were strung across the dining room cabinet
Baubles were displayed in hessian baskets. I love the polka dotted baubles I found in Target.
The Dala Horse was given a festive bow.
I made up a few decorations out of embossed white card and bakers twine.
Hope you are enjoying the festive countdown. Christmas is such a wonderful time of the year.
Such treasured items you have created:) I heart the houses on the twine with the little clothespins. Those clothespins are one of my new interests…he,he,he!
Very cute houses.
where did you find the Dala horse that is appliqued on the burlap bucket?
Love all your decorations, especially your precious Advent houses! That white paper ornament is really gorgeous. Might have to try that this year. Will you come decorate my house now too? We are looking forward to putting up all our Christmas decorations this weekend.
Such inspiration here as always! Thank you my dears! Lots of love, Amanda xxx

Oooh, it’s looking good Lisa. I LOVE those adorable little houses. And don’t you love Target? I could move into that store!
Love it all!! But those little houses are a winner! Pity I don’t think I could make some before Christmas, might aim for next year!
Ok…I love your red and white Christmas decor. Darling little touches. Great advent calendar.
