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!!

Beau wanted me to remind you that the 2019 Annual Holiday Tour of Homes, hosted by 11 Magnolia Lane and Evolution of Style, has begun!

Amazing bloggers, with such style, each sharing one space in their lovely holiday homes.

Below is the line up and links to each...and yes! That's us, Quarters One, at the end of the week.

We'll be showing off our decorated master bedroom. I've never decorated the master before for Christmas so I'm super excited to show you how it turns out!

We've spent 6 of the past 8 Christmases here at Lost Cay Cottage. This place has been a real blessing for my whole family!

I have a tendency to want to fill empty spaces and I'm trying to live a more simple life. The look I'm going for is vintage beach cottage. I probably made that up as a style but I'm not sure what else to call it!

The wreath on the gate was provided by Lynch Creek Farm, it is the Three Cedars wreath, with or without a bow.

I chose this beautiful version without a bow so that I could use this fabric.

Growing up in a military family, my fondest memories of Christmas are visiting my grandparents in Charleston, SC. They had a beautiful white gate that led to a backyard that was full of possibilities for a child. I just loved that yard and that gate. I still go by there when I'm in Charleston for a little glimpse even though the house is no longer in our family.

Hanging this wreath on this white gate in my own yard makes me so very happy. Grateful for memories of Christmas past and those yet to come.

Full of possibilities.

I picked this cute snowflake up in Atlanta at Linen and Flax, such an adorable little store!

Hmm, Rudolph?

I didn't want to do traditional Christmas lights. We aren't allowed to have lights up any other time of the year in our neighborhood I
thought market lights would be fun

for my vintage look.

I hope you've been catching everyday of this marvelously beautiful home tour...here are all the links for you. Come back to see us Sunday (12.2) when Q1 is in the lineup!
