Chistmas Mantle

Last month (Nov. 9 post), I showed you how I transitioned our fireplace mantle from Halloween and into fall....well, since we're more than half way through December, I wanted to show how I transitioned our mantle from fall and into Christmas... I keep the main pieces that I use year round -- the HOME blocks, milk glass containers and the large square tin -- and dress them up with stockings, pinecones, berries, a pair of reindeer and a vintage set of skis and poles. We hung the stockings using small gold cup hooks... when Christmas is over and it's time for the stockings to come down, the hooks come out and their holes are small enough they won't be noticed. Please email us photos of your Holiday Home-- we would love to post them to our blog to share.

homebodies has a lot of door hangs to help make your holiday season Merry & Bright--from candy canes to Santa hats to Snowmen and stockings! One of our favorites is the old-fashioned stocking... adorned with crystals, glitter and gems, it is full of style!

Old Windows

We love old windows, especially when they're "upcycled" with decorative vinyl to create a unique wall decoration. If you are interested in one for your home--you are in luck! homebodies currently has a super selection of old windows. They come in all sizes and sayings... and some of the windows even offer a piece of Tooele history, once belonging to the old Tooele Clinic (which is slated to be the future home of the chamber of commerce). Many of the windows come with hanging hardware and homebodies even has some windows that are not decorated--so you can create what you want with it (of course we can help you with ordering the vinyl). These windows would make a wonderful Christmas gift or look fabulous hanging on your own wall.

Country Christmas

Lisa D. (one of our fab gals at homebodies) is kind enough to share some beautiful photos of her home this time of year. Lisa D. is a country decorating Goddess... and she is creative beyond compare. Plus, she puts her equally handy hubby to work... he crafted the star-studded shutters and helped with the stunning chandelier medallion. The medallion was actually cut out of a much larger wall tin (it originally measured about four-feet square) that Lisa D. found at homebodies. You can see Lisa D. combines her everyday decor with lots of holiday cheer. Thanks for sharing!
