Hello everyone,
It was a mild rainy day here but I decided to give our little sunroom a more Christmasy look.So I will show you some of the little details today and later" the rest of the story".
I have been looking for an old sweater to make into a pillow and lucked in a couple of days ago. So,I came home and make a pillow and a few Christmas hearts from the sleeves.
I also found this little canning jar for a dollar and put some epsom salts in it with a candle and sprayed it with fake snow same as I did last last year but added a gingham ribbon and a small spruce cone . You can't have too many of these!
I see a lot of sheet music being used these days so I thought this would work good in this frame that I had with the cross on top.
Some rosemary and greenery with winterberries.
I love my new winter white knitted pillow with the red toile one.
I moved these cute little wellies up to the sunroom.
Going for a natural look again with birdhouses and greenery etc.
I love this angel so much I never put it away so I can enjoy it all year.
I am not letting any scape go to waste on that poor sweater- Hope this keeps my tea warm!
Well,now you have seen the little details - hope you can come back later for tea in the sunroom!
Take care,
Carolyn

Hi Carolyn
I've never seen an old sweater put to such good use; the pillow and heart are pretty.
The canning jar transformation is an inexpensive way to add some vintage decor for the season.

Love your Christmas decor, Carolyn! The sweater pillow is perfect for the Winter months and I love that you've used the scraps to make other things. Your red and white toile fits right in with the season.
Cara Coroly è tutto meraviglioso e fantastico!!
L'idea di creare un cuscino con il maglio e fare anche questo stupendo cuore,è stupendo!!
C'è un aria natalizia nella tua casa molto magica!!;D
Un bacio!!
Sabry!!

Wishing you a festive and beautiful week ahead.

I love those darling Wellies!! And the cable knit looks so adorable too~I have seen knit cuffs cut off and just put around a votive candle holder and that was so charming too~

Your decorations look lovely Carolyn! What a good idea to use an old sweater to make a pillow of. Your little light with the gingham ribbon looks very sweet too.
Wish you a lovely new week!

You certainly have set the stage for the Christmas season!
I am on the look out for woollens to shrink and make up cushions for my outdoor bench!
Hi Carolyn,
So lovely! Yes, it's the details that make all of these beautiful things special and festive. As always, love the red and white touches. Gorgeous pics, thanks for the inspiration!
Poppy :)
You have so many good ideas. And to use the jumper like that is one of them! Loved the hearts - and the pillow as well.
Hope you have some better weather today. Here it's rainy, windy and grey!
Love Elzie
Virtual Christmas party at my blog.
What are your favorite Christmas memories?
Carolyn your house is so beautiful I think we all want to come to your house for Christmas! Ha ha!!! Love all the crafty ideas and want to incorporate a few into my own home. The sweater idea is a wonderful one and am heading to goodwill to find one for my own to get creating. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and great ideas. God bless.

I missed this post earlier, Carolyn! LOVE your sweater pillow. Midge's mom made me one very similar some years ago and I will always treasure it. Isn't it such a cozy addition on a cold winter's day. Hope you didn't snatch some poor woman's sweater! Hahaha
Cheers,
