Yep I started already!!!! I decided to start my Christmas decorating early. My daughter does Thanksgiving so I usually can start the Christmas decor early. I also have a Charity Girlfriend Christmas Party at my house shortly after Thanksgiving so if I can get a jump on the decorating that helps alot. I just started so I am sure I will be changing some of this that you will see. I like to play around with things until I get them where I really like them. Here are some of the beginnings:)

My camera does not do this justice it really is so pretty at night lit up.  I used my old garden wagon this year to put my tree in.



I love angels and have them through out my Christmas decor.

A little bling for the door.

Can't have a farmhouse kitchen without a vintage little truck with a tree!!!!

Old theater seats from Jennifer Rizzo at the Flea Market last week end.  I am still looking for vintage throws to lay on the seats.

Love to add the cottage flowers with greenery on this old door in my entry way.

My dining room is coming together.  I still have to do the center piece for the table but I added some simple wreaths and tied ribbon on them to my chairs.  The two simple wreaths on the window are just that simple wreaths I got at Ikea and tired them with white ribbon.  I know it is kind of hard to see them with the way the light comes in that window.

A little bird nest Christmas bling.

I love this old window and it was fun to start to decorate it with Christmas.  The believe sign and greenery lights at night for a subtle glow.  You will have to take my word on this it really is pretty lite at night.

Old vintage skates with greenery

This is probably my favorite when I can just take a simple piece of greenery and make it cute with adding a little bird and some white ribbon to the chair.  Simple but makes a statement.

Again I need to take a professional photography class and get a better camera but I think you can get the idea.  These vintage angels are stuffed with white lights and at night they look really pretty.

This is the mantel during the day.  I love those vintage angels.

I have just begun and I will probably be switching some of this up but I thought I would share with you what I have started.  I hope this gets some of you in the mood to start to decorate early.

I went to the Kane County Flea market this week end and found a great little find from Jennifer Rizzo.  I am sure alot of you know her from her blog http://www.jenniferrizzo.com/ if you do not you must check out her fab blog.  She is such a sweetie and I love to see her at local shows and the flea market.  She always has great treasures.   I was in her booth and then my eyes spotted this great set of old vintage theater seats.  Ohhhh had to have them.  I took my vintage bike down in my entry way for the winter and I was looking for something to fill the spot and I think these little chippy seats with history will do the trick.  I will decorate them up cute for Christmas.  Check these out!

I loved these at first site. Jen was not sure but we think these came from an old theater in Chicago. You know how I love stuff with history in my home.


Of course you know me with my cream and white obsession so the hubs gave these a nice coat of cottage white paint.



I have been playing with some Christmas decor on these cute little chairs.
