2019 Holiday Tour of Homes...our Master Bedroom at the Beach

Thank you, again to 11 Magnolia Lane and Evolution of Style for including me in the 2019 Holiday Tour of Homes! Hasn't it all been just amazing? If you've come from Heather at the Heathered Nest, welcome to Quarters One! Don't miss Amanda at Sincerely, Marie Designs next on the tour.  I'm in total awe of both of their beautiful homes...and all of the homes on this tour!

I don't know why but I've never decorated our master bedroom for the holidays.  The master in our military quarters was always just acceptable...but I love this bedroom at the beach.

I prefer a vintage sort of beach vibe in our house, I hope you feel that when you take a peek...






Every year I order a bay leaf wreath from McFadden Farm, they are always my favorite.  I usually hang it in the kitchen but here it is above our bed.
For the first time I also ordered garland, it's so pretty, even when it dries.









We refer to this antique German traveling shrunk
as the divorce shrunk because it had to be taken apart and put back together after each move. 
The process is a combination of Twister and Jenga....
and frustration.
Lucky for us, and our marriage, it has found it's forever spot right here!







I love, love a flocked tree. They look so pretty and romantic. 
I don't even think then need ornaments but I put a few vintage pieces on this tree in our bedroom.





Thank you so much for stopping by!
With Gratitude and Holiday Wishes,
Shand

Hers...Christmas on the Front Porch


If it wasn't for my sweet friends at 11 Magnolia Lane and their kind invitation to join their Holiday Tour of Homes again this year I may not have gotten out a single decoration.
#skippingChristmas(decorating)
The temptation was real. 
Am I the only one who feels that way?


I thought about switching to traditional Christmas lights but I love these market lights so much I decided to stick with them again this year.
I like the whimsical holiday look of it all!


 Tippet is the only one who wanted in on the action today, she's such a Labradiva!














So much beautiful on the tour...links below!!

The Making of our Christmas Photo


I love our cute Christmas photo this year!
I thought some of the other pictures were really funny so I put together a little behind the scene blooper set...


Me: Beau, Tippet look at me...who wants a treat! Treat, treat, TREAT!


Me: Tippet, Beatrice look! Treat! 
Oh gosh, the door is open...argh..


Tippet: No treat is worth this.  
Beau: Where did you say to look for a treat?
Beatrice: Did someone say sit?


Beatrice: Cheese!
Tippet: Why do we have a puppy?


Me: Tippet, you'll regret that look every time you see this picture! 
   Beau: I'm so bored of this.


Beau: Beatrice ate my treat! 
Beatrice: Yes, I did!
Tippet: I really don't understand why we have a puppy.


Beau: You can't make me look.


Beau and Beatrice: Is that a bag of treats on top of mom's head?
Tippet: I just can't take any more of this.


Beau and Beatrice: Let's get that bag of treats!
Tippet: I knew this was a bad idea.
Me: I'm beginning to think you're right, Tippet.


57 photos later a Christmas miracle!
With Gratitude,
Shand
Beauregard, Beatrice, and Tippet
