I bought these birdies last year but they all had red eyes and beaks. They looked like Satan's little evil pets. I thought about buying a few more for Halloween, they were really scary looking. I replaced the eyes with black beads from an old necklace and painted the beaks black, all better.
I had a bunch of fringe left over from a project a few years ago so I decided to hang it up around the house, not traditional but if you know me at all it is not surprising
I took wire baskets and piled a ton of lights in them, It is the lazy girl's way to decorate with lights. You never need to untangle them and they give an artsy look to any surface.
Merry Christmas Everyone!!
It all looks wonderful. Very fun. I like the fringe.
ReplyDeleteThe ornaments are great. We are decorating the outside of our house with lights for the first time ever...wanna come down and do it for us? I started yesterday, and it's looking crappy already. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks great! I love the new little white birds. Very creative touches!
ReplyDeleteMy mom has always had little birds on our tree, whe I was kid I get it from her. I now always have birds.
ReplyDeleteIf you would like Letty, I would I live for this stuff, I was thinking last night, what now...
ReplyDeleteBelladelle, I love decorating for christmas with everyday objects, it makes me think that I need to appreciate the beauty in every little thing. A couple years ago hung a bunch of buttons and ribbons all over and left it at that.
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative Ali! I love the idea of Satan's birds ... but the black eyes are probably better for Christmas, lol. It all looks great!
ReplyDeleteI am inspired by your wonderful Christmas decorations. Will get ours organised before we have people over tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteHow clever you are to switch out the eyes on teh birds! And your chalkboard is awesome! Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteYou have wonderful Christmas ideas. Your home is so very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHave a Happy Holiday

Hey country girl, I'm a country girl too! You have done an amazing job decorating. I love all the collections, vignettes, the tree. Love it. I love the lights all wadded up too in baskets...now I think that is the best idea I have seen all day! I could decorate my entire house with bunches of wadded up lights!!!! Hahahah....great inspiration!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely Christmas!
