Home Sweet Home #45

Hello and welcome to Home Sweet Home!   I am winding down the decorating but, I have been a little influenced by the German blogs with their natural materials and Shabby Chic/Nordic flair.  I can not get enough of the natural and rustic Christmas. 

My paperwhites started blooming today!  I can't believe I got them to bloom on my first try at growing them.
Last week's Home Sweet Home was another fantastic party!  Many beautiful homes with a lot of Christmas inspiration.   I am going to show more features than usual because I thought there was so many great decorating ideas for Christmas.  You all are so talented!

First, Elaine at Sunny Simple Life  showed off her adorable kitchen cabinet decorated for Christmas.  

Girl In Pink  gave a little holiday home tour that was gorgeous!!


The very talented Rosemary of Ozma of Odds showed off a table makeover and a Nordic church candelabra she made.

 Rene of Miss Gracie's House showed off her Christmas decorating.

Chari over at Happy To Design  showed off her Christmas decorating which was also gorgeous!

Erika over at Be Book Bound  showed off her Dickens inspired Christmas.  

Kristen over at Sophia's showed off how to make a small tree look grand perfectly.

And last, Marianne at Country Glamour Home showed off her beautiful bannister.

 Thank you to all who join me at Home Sweet Home!  It is awesome to have you here!  
Sherry

    Hi Sherry...

    Ohhh...what beautiful Christmas you have shared with us, dear friend! I think you hit that "Nordic" decor right on the nailhead! It's gorgeous! I love the rustic and simplistic feel of it! I love the little silver candle cups. I don't know if I have ever seen any in the stores. Fabulous photos too, Sherry! Thank you for sharing your pretty Christmas with us and for hosting this lovely party!

    I was sooo surprised to see my three tiered Christmas vignette in that fabulous list of line-ups! Thank you!

    Again...warmest wishes to you and your family for a wonderfully sweet and blessed Christmas, dear friend!

    congrats on your paperwhites! Mine are still wayyy behind. humph.

    I linked up my planter tutorial and my Grinch tree. I was feeling a bit grinchy this year, thus my grinch tree, less lush but still meaningful and makes me smile.
