I thought I would create a gold and cream theme. My husband and I ventured down the hill today to visit Pottery World. My last post featured some fabulous decorating for the holidays.
We indulged in a nice lunch and then proceeded to browse. What's not to love in this amazing store?
The gold sleigh immediately caught my eye. Check it out!
There's more to come.....I did tweak my back alittle, while pulling down heavy bins.
My husband suggested skipping decorating this holiday.....Not!
What have you been up to?

Hi Linda! Your mantel is just gorgeous! I love all of the goldeness you've used. I just loved your dancing too! You're amazing.
ReplyDeletebe a sweetie,

Everything that you do is elegant, Linda. Love the mantel. I finally got mine done today, but it is far from elegant. Be careful with that back! Those "tweaked" backs can keep ya down if ya don't watch it.
ReplyDeleteLinda, your mantel is gorgeous! Love the colors that you're using! Everything looks so elegant!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a glamorous mantel! It's so pretty! That sleigh is the perfect focal point.
ReplyDeleteHope your back is better soon!
Beautiful mantel, Linda. I love you as an elf! You are rather magical. ;-) xo
ReplyDeleteYour home is so beautiful and your mantel is no exception! And your little elf is so darn cute :) I can't wait to see more it is inspiring me to get the Christmas decorating done!
ReplyDeleteB e a u t I f u l!! Your sleigh is darling! Love the ornaments in it and your Santa!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely elegant! Beautiful in the evening with the lights!
Linda, your mantle looks gorgeous! I especially love the evening photo with it all lit up and glowing.
ReplyDeleteWow! This is gorgeous! Linda, can you come to my house and decorate?! Everything looks so festive and bright. Love it!

ReplyDeleteHi Linda! I love that sleigh and those reindeer! The whole thing looks just wonderful! The photo of the mantle with the lights dimmed is stunning! Gina
ReplyDeleteLinda,your mantle is so lovely Love the Merry Christmas sign on the frame. x
ReplyDeleteIt would be a sin not decorate your lovely home for Christmas... even if only Santa is stopping by LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with your sleigh!!!! So so lovely and I like the twinkling lights when you dim the room lights.
So envious of your gift. Why do you deal with digital design?. You'd be a blessing for lessed gifted people decorating their homes - if only for the Holidays.
So envious of that Sleigh finding. You always grab the loveliest things.
Take Care and Have Fun! (pay no attention to the lucky Hubby... you just remember him he said no when he's enjoying a cuppa in front of the fireplace watching those twinkling lights :sigh:)
Love You,
Teresa

ReplyDeleteVery elegant Linda. The sleigh is gorgeous! Sure hope your back gets better. Sore backs are the worst! Thanks for sharing with Share Your Cup.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Your mantel looks amazing, I love the swag and the combination of gold and cream. I am using silver and gold this year for my decorations but have a simple mantel I used some gorgeous white orchids and hung a wreath with gold organza ribbon from the top of the mirror. I then suspended a little fine strand of silver stars across the mantel. I am really pleased with the results. Hopefully the orchids will bloom for quite some time.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda,
ReplyDeleteI love your mantle, the warm golds very classic and elegant!
Merry Christmas!
Hugs,
Bella
Not sure how I missed this post, but it is beautiful! I love the colors! I went with similar colors in our dining room and library this year. Your sleigh is SO cool with that kind of almost quilted look on the sides!!! Gorgeous ornaments in it, too! I'm sorry to hear you pulled some back muscles and hope you're feeling much, much better by now. I don't know WHAT on earth made your husband think for even a moment that a little pain would stop the decorating!!! :-)
