Christmas Tour...The Sitting Room

I'm back with my Christmas tour and as promised,
I'm going to share my sitting room with you today.

 
 This is one of my most favorite rooms;
it's connected to the dining room.
As a result, I kept the same color scheme
with neutrals in white, cream, silver & gold.
In this room though, there is a touch of blue.
 
 
(Warning:  I may have taken a few too many photos.)
 
 
 
I bought this tree last year after Christmas and I forgot all about it.
My husband was pulling the decorations from the attic and
called me to say he found a tree in the attic still in the box.
I had no clue what it was!  lol
He actually had to send a picture of it to me while I was at work!
 
 
Close up of some ornaments on the tree.
 
 
 Some sparkle atop my blue dresser.
 
 
 My seasonal pillows.
And yes, the girl who can't sew (that being me), made that poinsettia pillow!
I would have had a tutorial to share, but who am I fooling...I didn't take
any pictures during the process.
I never thought in a million years it would turn out like that!  lol
  


This shelf hangs opposite the wall with the blue dresser.
You may remember this shelf from last year.
The display is pretty much the same.
 
 
And there you have it, my holiday sitting room!
 
I'm hoping to continue the Christmas tour soon.
(If I could only get some decent photos in this drab weather.) 
The rest of the décor in the house features lots of red.
I hope you'll join me!

  6. Gina, your sitting room is absolutely festive and gorgeous!

    You know that shelf you have your white ironstone on? I think you could tuck Christmas cards on the frame around it, couldn't you? Of course they won't be white and match - but does make the shelf even more valuable having dual purposing.

    Love your room, trying to catch up on past posts from everyone, have been sick and am waaaaay behind.

    Hugs.

  17. Your home is so lovely there isn't a room or a detail that don't confirm the lovely atmosphere you've created in and for it.
    So many lovely pieces that makes hard to say "WOW Gina look at that..." because it all fits, seems to belong as a all.
    Thank you for sharing,
    Teresa
