Welcome to our home!
This was my first year making my own wreath. I usually get one from Costco, but a neighbor was kind enough to teach me how to do my own. I've made three, and will hopefully be making a couple more, one for each of the columns on my front porch.
I've decorated my whole house on a tight budget. 90% of my decorations were purchased secondhand, on super-clearance or given to me. I also have an obsession with Santa.
Our tree is covered in Santa ornaments. I've never spent more than a dollar on any of them.
I've covered my mantel with my Santa Collection. I can tell you were each of them came from. Most of them are from local thrift stores.
I like to think I live in the perfect Christmas house. It looks it's best this time of year. There's just something about an old house at Christmas.

Very, very pretty!
Very nice! I love how cozy and that you too decorate on a budget!
I love all the garlands, especially the one with the stars. how fun to have all those Santas to put on your mantle. Too cute!
I am obsessed with snowflakes and I think it's because I live in Arizona now and I never get to see them! So I love the Santa collection. That would go nicely with my otherwise very red theme.
Ho Ho Ho! May I confess that I'm obsessed with Snowmen? I should follow your good lead and try to buy some after Christmas when they're not as expensive. :)
I love your santa collection on the fireplace and your light fixtures dressed up in their holiday goods! Beautiful!
Your holiday decor looks so festive and inviting! Your Santas are wonderful!
Cheers!
