Loving Thanksgiving in the country... and antique china, silver, glassware and turkeys!!

Now that Thanksgiving is over it’s time to answer the door and welcome Christmas in!

My mom taught me how to make magnolia wreaths when I was young that we hung on the fireplace in the den at Christmas. So after constructing this wreath I decided it needed some high gloss red paint to make it a showstopper! #christmaswreath

Flanking the red magnolia wreath on the door were urns of winter greens with pops of red ilex berries and large pinecones painted red to accentuate the wreath. ***You can see the full door in my previous posts!***

Now that the outside is decorated let’s carry the red on inside! ***See more of our red Christmas decorations on our previous posts***

Red, red and more red! Can you ever overuse the color this time of year?! ***See more of our red Christmas decorations on our previous posts***

Time to dress up the mantle! A little greenery. A little candlelight. A lot of red... ***See more of our red Christmas decorations on our previous posts***

I love an elaborate greenery and bauble filled mantle, but the simplicity of this one makes it a favorite. ***See more of our red Christmas decorations on our previous posts***

When decorating your mantle don’t forget the hearth. It needs some holiday love, too!
