Hello everyone!
I spent most of the day doing Christmas decorating and I have pretty much finished our bedroom so I thought you might like to see it because if you are like me you love Christmas house tours.
This year our bedroom had a completely different look from last year as it had a big makeover in Febuary/March. So with a more neutral background I thought for awhile about how to decorate it this year to make it cosy and Christmasy. If you would like to see the makeover click
here.
So I decided to give it some touches of plaid and used what I had with a few new thrift finds.
The cranberry throw on the end of the bed is a Pottery Barn throw but from a thrift shop in Summerside for $2. The valance around the curtains on the bed were in the kitchen last week-remember I like change!
The tree in the corner was also a thrift shop find about 6 years ago for $20. so I think I got my moneys worth.
I love the Nativity scene on the mantel-my reminder of the real reason of the season.
Some added whimsey
Presents under the tree. I like the mix of toile and plaid.
A wreath for the mirror.
My Scottish Santa in his tartan coat.
A comfy chaise(formerly in the kitchen bay window.
A propane fireplace keeps it cosy and warm.
Love the night time glow.
Well, that is my Christmas bedroom for this year. If you would like to see how very different it looked last year click

I am joining the following parties:
Vintage Inspiration- Christmas at
Common Ground
Open House at
Berndeen's Teatime Blog.
Show off Saturday at
The Rose Garden in Malevik.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

It is so beautiful! I love the bedskirt, the plaids and the Scottish Santa.
Your beautiful Nativity mantel is my new wallpaper on my pc.

Your bedroom looks very romantic and cozy....hopefully it will be snowing outside your windows soon for the finishing touch. Thanks so much for linking to my party!

So georgous! I was going to decorate my bedroom this year but this wonderful post has made me change my mind.(-:
I loved seeing your room in the daytime and at night. It is beautiful.
I love all the pictures

I went and looked at "last year's bedroom" and while it was very lovely, I have to say the changes you've made this year are even more beautiful. The neutral backdrop makes your decorations and bedding stand out more. With a bedroom all aglow for Christmas like yours, I'd be turning in right after dinner! You sure have done well on your thrift store finds too!

Carolyn,although your lasts years Christmas bedroom was really nice,I love this one more. It's so cosy yet really light. xx
Hi Carolyn: I liked last year's room but I love this years. You really did do a change, wallpaper and all. It looks so pristine but so warm at the same time. Very restful..Happy Weekend. .Judy
Your bedroom is simply GORGEOUS!!! LOVE IT!!!
I hope you are aware of just how much inspiration you give us all. I always leave the computer after visiting your blog and go and do something nice in the house!
LOVE your Scottish Santa.
(Apparently CocaCola is responsible for turning Santa's clothes red.)
Have a wonderful weekend. xx
Someone said "Enchanting" and that it is. Everything you touch becomes a charming, warm, inviting, lovely place to see. What beauty you create.

Carolyn,
I remember last years and yet I think white and crystal are 'in' this year as I too have opted for the formal tree to become the 'crystal winter forest'. I love love love the bedskirt.. handmande or just where did you get that.. don't tell me.. the second hand store? It's jut the highlight of the complete bed.
Now.. please.. could you do me a favor.. help me locate my dig cam as during Thanksgiving I tucked it away somewhere as to not lose it.. and so I have. Hubs said it will turn up when I'm looking for it.. but my dining room is just a mess with decorating prepping and other issues going on.
Big hugs and love,
Cotton Peony
Very pretty, Carolyn! It looks so cozy! Love the chaise near the fireplace. You would definitely find me there reading my current book. : ) Love the plaids you added in. Did you use a valance for your bedskirt, too? It looks great!
So very pretty and soft. I love your style. Thank you for sharing . Also looked at your bedroom redo. Beautiful. The balcony is awesome too.
Carolyn it looks beautiful! Love your white nativity set under the mirror too!
