Hello Friends…Welcome to my Home! I’ve been anticipating this day for weeks and am so excited (and nervous) to show you around our little country home as part of the Very Merry Christmas Home Tour blog hop hosted by Carrie of Lovely Etc. Join myself and 24 other bloggers as we open up our homes and share our holiday decor…plus there’s a $500 giveaway just in time for Christmas! I’m also sharing my holiday home tour with the Jennifer Rizzo Annual Holiday House Walk and Link Party! You can see more holiday home tours by clicking the image above or going HERE…
This year, I was going for a more traditional Country Christmas feel…full of nostalgia, memories, and a few whimsical touches. I’ll try not to talk too much and just show you around…There have been some big changes since my last home tour. I wish I could be standing in the doorway to welcome you all in, but we’ve had the rainiest last few days. Dreary weather sure puts one in the Christmas spirit…
The Chalkboard Easel was draped with a chain made by my boys…They were really excited to help me get ready for the tour. A simple burlap wreath hangs in the hall with my hoop frames…
Lots of old quilts, pinecones, and plaid…
Love surrounding myself with lots of photos…Gallery Style Photo Board
Too many pillows…There’s no such thing! A couple holiday pillows and a Blessed Pillow to remind me how fortunate I am…
Crocheted snowflakes made by my grandma always adorn my tree…the more sparkle the better…
Greenery, sparkle, and gold foil add just the right touch to this year’s mantel…
We’re definitely counting down the days…sometimes the numbers change multiple times in one day! My boys are so excited!
I’ve been collecting these log legged figurines for years and look forward to setting them out each year…aren’t they fun!
My Christmas Cactus is blooming so beautifully…My mom has such a green thumb and always has had a Christmas Cactus. I remember, as a little girl, thinking I would love to have one in my own home “when I grow up…”
As a child, I remember walking through Hall’s department store and being mesmerized by the candy tables and trees…
My mom made these little carolers years ago and I couldn’t resist adding them this year…It’s been so fun decorating with all of these memories…
What Holiday kitchen would be complete without a Cocoa Bar? I kept it super simple…and will be enjoying more coffee than cocoa…
This little spot has been a big hit already…I’m sure Santa knows exactly what my boys are wishing for this year…
Love the glowing look of the tree…And it spins which makes it even more magical! I could just sit on the sofa and enjoy the feel of this room for hours…
Hope you enjoyed a peek into my Holiday Home…See how I added festive touches to our bedroom here and be sure to come back later this week when I share our outdoor decor (if it ever stops raining!)
It just keeps getting better…We have an Amazing giveaway for you! Happy Holidays!!
Don’t forget to visit the rest of the homes on the tour – there are some amazing homes here! Catch a sneak peak from the photos below and follow the links to see everyone’s homes.

I’ve always loved your home Ariean!! So festive and inviting!! I was so excited to be sharing a home tour day with you
So many warm, thoughtful, personal touches make this space incredibly welcoming and lovely. I think my favourite would have to be your couch with those adorable little snowflake and reindeer pillows – it looks so cosy, I just want to curl up there with a good book! I’m also loving the fresh greenery on the mantel and coffee table. Beautiful, Ariean! xoxo
Looks GREAT!!! I love all the nostalgic touches!!! We made a paper chain this year for the first time – so classic and I LOVE the look!!! I have that SAME Jack & Jill vintage magazine (it’s actually in my Etsy shop) if anyone wants to have one like Ariean!!!
