Holiday Greens ~
The wreaths, garlands and swags are ordered! I’m so excited!
It will be a busy holiday season. Isn’t it always?
I’m throwing a ‘Girls Night In’ gathering…in early December.
Then, there is the Assistance League of the Eastside ,
Celebrations Holiday Home Tour 2012!
This year, the tour takes place on December 7th!
I’ll have fun tidbits on that soon. I’ve provided the link to
tickets, if you live nearby. They are expecting 1,500 people this year!
That’s a lot of fa ~la ~la!
Back at our house, we’ll have a gathering for The Christmas Ships
that cruise by our lake front home
and then there is Christmas dinner…at our house. Love.
I’ve cleared the decks and pulled out some
fun containers and such as I finalize
our holiday decorating & menu plans.
For the fist time ever…
I’m going flocked! Yep! I hope I like it!?
Here are a couple of flocked beauties from Pinterest.
My sister says our mom used to have
a flocked tree….really? I had no idea…wasn’t around yet.
I’ve decided the room with the flocked tree will have a retro vibe.
I’m thinking a retro Holiday bar would be nice…love this
one from Pinterest
and this one…
I’ll probably use our sideboard as a bar, though.
Anyway, I’ll share all of my holiday cheer, as I go along.
For now, I’ll just….

Sounds gorgeous…can’t wait to see…wish I lived closer so the “Monica’s” could hang out! (Tidbit: My best friend in high school was Monica, and we were the only two Monica’s in our whole town!)
I wish you (we) lived closer too! Think we would have fun…There was only one other Monica in my High School as well. Than you for visiting.

Flocked huh? I remember having a flocked tree from time to time when I was growing up. My Mother always chose a different theme/color scheme each year for our tree (she was one hip lady!). Flocked trees went “out” for many years, but, alas, they’re back again! Yours shall be delightful!

Hi, Monica – I can’t wait to see. However you decorate, it will be beautiful and creative. Perhaps the theme will be a flocked winter wonderland :)
