IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS...

It's a work in progress! Here's what is done so far...

i swore I wasn't decorating the outside of the house, and I didn't except for the gold wreath on the door. The out door lights are all courtesy of Jim and Courtney. (They can take them all down too!)
My mini master piece Titans/ Predator tree greets people in the foyer.
new this year on the "big" tree is red and gold butterflies instead of bows. A very ME touch!

Sorry this is an awful picture... My wire "present" basket finds from Hobby Lobby.
The mantel so far. I found that sign to cover some of the white box under the TV. It is still missing something... I think every thing is too tall I need some smaller items to break it up. I like how my jardinieres turned out with the pine cones and Christmas balls.
Probably the only type snowmen or people will see here in the south for Christmas.
Old favorites!

I still have garlands to put up, and more small displays to finish. We aren't having any parties, or people for Christmas so I'm not really going to do much more. Maybe a cookie exchange or a morning coffee.... We will see....

Hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving! Happy decorating for Christmas!
