Holiday Decorating Ideas Kitchen around the House!

"Holiday Decorating Ideas for the Kitchen & around the House"
by Connie Hughes Designs©

I just finished decorating around the house today...
I didn't know what to do in my kitchen...
I just knew I wanted lights, presents with pretty ribbons...

I just wanted cute Christmas stuff!

So this little Santa worked perfect and he

has a lot of sparkle!

I've had this Santa Platter for years and I never

had room for it on my counter tops to display it...

but he's found a new home this year!

I found this little Rocking Horse at my Fred Meyers Store this year,

and he too just looks right at home up there!

I needed boxes so I looked high and low...I found some in my

pantry...I used cereal boxes, those zip lock baggies boxes, I used

 boxes that held some of my Christmas decorations...I just

marked those boxes so I could find them easily

when it's time to pack them up!

I just love my chef Nutcracker!

Speaking of Nutcrackers here's my displays

and more Nutcrackers

If you can find it in your heart or if you need a reason

let me remind you Christmas is Nutcracker season!

Here's the link to my Crochet Christmas Nutcracker Pattern.

I just started collecting Byers Choice Dolls a few years ago...when I was in

Oregon this summer, we found this Christmas Shop in Lincoln City
and they had Byers Choice Dolls...so I had to stop and look...
My sweet husband bought me the door and another

Salvation Army doll...I was in heaven!

He surprised me with these Mother & Daughter
Gingerbread Dolls last year...and they are adorable!

I got her when we went to Leavenworth a few

years ago...I just love her!
They are all Made in America!

When I was setting these up today...I was pondering who

would I give these too and who in the world would want them?

Oh well I have many years to ponder!

Don't forget the stairs!



I have two of these hanging on my wall in my living room

and they just looked a little plain...so I tied a little red

ribbon around the candles...and now I love them!

Decorating for the Holidays is so much fun...

and every decoration has some memory attached to it...

it's sad we only get them out once a year...

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas

and a great and Happy New Year!
