A White Christmas

Hello everyone,
      It does look like a' White Christmas' here as we have a good cover of snow already. I don't think it will last though as we are supposed to be going up to double digit temperatures in a few days.
 However, as I am still having camera troubles so I went through my old photos again to find some White Christmas photos to share with you-sorry about that!
   I will soon be starting my baking for the Christmas house tour on Dec 10th but I am not quite ready for that yet.
I love a beautiful crisp day in winter.


The sunroom last year at Christmas-it is still on my to do list for this year.
I do love angels.
Sunroom
Our kitchen /dining room.

Hopefully,I will have my camera situation fixed soon and our house decorated for the season and then I will have some new photos for you.

 I love a White Christmas but I also love the warm and cozy colors too and seem to have a mix in our house so tomorrow I will have to share some of those photos. What about you what look do you prefer for your Christmas decorating?

Thank you for visiting,

Carolyn

    It's a big snow day here, Carolyn. We've had 25-30 cm since late last night, so early for snow. Sheesh.

    Gorgeous photos...I love your white outfit! You look as though you stepped right out of the pages of Victoria, my friend.


    Hugs,

    I like white but also the warm, cozy colours for Christmas, exactly like you do I guess.
    Have fun with the baking.
    Hope your cameraproblems will be solved soon. Looking forward to more wonderful christmassy pictures.
    Bye,

    Just lovely, Carolyn! I start my Christmas decorating tomorrow and am excited to open the bins and boxes to get everything out. Sometimes I forget what I've got! We are in a new home this year, so everything will look different in their new places.

    I hope you know how beautiful your kitchen/dining-room area is. It is perfection to me. I love all the whites, it is my favorite. I have many colours throughout Christmas but I am buying more whites and creams now. Beautiful post, Carolyn. I love your home. Deb=^..^=x4

    Beautiful decorating Carolyn. I always love your Christmas decor no matter the colour. I like a mix of colours and this year I have touches of red in the kitchen and pink in the dining room. I'm sorry you're still having camera problems and hopefully it will be repaired soon. Maybe Santa will bring you a new one :) Blessings, Pamela

    I'm sorry to hear that you are having camera troubles. Maybe if you ask Santa he will bring you a shiny new one. I enjoy looking at your pictures all over again anyway. We have no snow yet here. V

    Hello, Carolyn

    I was relieved to read that the photos were not new. It seems early to have had all that decorating done! :)
