My Home During the Holidays - A Purple Christmas



A Purple Christmas you say?  Yes, I finally finished decorating for the holidays and thought you might want to see how a purple lover puts her home together.  Hope you don't get overwhelmed by my décor.  I had the same traditional décor while my son was growing up.  I wanted to get out of that holiday rut of reds and greens and do things for me, a lover of purple hues.  You'll see some craft items that I've posted and items I've had for a number of years.  I won't be saying much, just a whole lot of pictures.  But I think you might be surprise at the end when I show you how the outside of my house looks.















       
                  



                                    









                                                         I love making all sorts of angels. . . .
                                                                          ribbon angels . . .
                                                                         beaded angels . . .






                                                     Purple, purple, purple . . .

                                                                         More angels . . .
                                                       And of course, a purple angel too!




                     Don't you just love all the white trees . . . and the purple ornaments. . .







Looking from the outside, you'd never know a lover of purple lives here . . . But I don't want to scare the neighbors!


 
Hope you enjoyed my festive features . . . 


Happy Holidays

  1. Your Christmas decor is beautiful Gail! I love all the angels, and the purple ornaments on that white skinny tree are just the perfect touch.I would love to spray paint one of my green trees white because I think a white tree is such a fabulous base for showing off the beauty or ornaments. Maybe next year. Your home is so festively welcoming Gail. Just gorgeous!

  3. I love all of your Christmas decorations. I adore decorating in white for the holidays and I love your ornament tree on the wall - very original. The outside looks gorgeous with the white wreaths and swags. I am your newest follower on GFC. Would love for you to stop by my place sometime.

  7. Thank you for taking on a tour of your lovely home. The white trees and garlands are my favorites. Love the angel collection. I think next year the purple should be outside too!

  8. Hi Gail- well I'm not surprised at your color choices but I am impressed! Your trees look marvelous. I'm all about traditional colors but I enjoy all the different choices out there. As long as someone makes it festive looking any color will do! You did a beautiful job on both trees. Love the white one. This year for some reason I was drawn to the white trees but I didn't get one (yet)! Your bannister looks great- it's always nice to see the stairways dressed up too. Merry Christmas!
