Very festive but I'm glad I don't have to undecorate some of these heavily loaded trees, pack and put it all away. I suppose they pay people to do though.

I do love that red door. It was made for Christmas.

@stevieb It is all so lovely, but the trees speak to me. I love traditional trees, with ornaments collected through childhood, generations and hand crafted.
@Kachina624 is right about the red door. Love!

@stevieb The one bugaboo for me is the awful mirror.

Normally the bed would be too much but I love it for Christmas. Wouldn't mind sleeping there on Christmas Eve!

I feel the same way...however since it looks so magical, I like to think that Santa's elves do the work. I'm never going to have such ornate decor so I will just imagine.

Love the bed with the decorated headboard, (Christmas cards were a surprise but a pretty one), crisp white sheets with the red velvet coverlet and shams. The pillow, gold box, even the lamp and table decoration are perfect.

I also love the red door. The pictures are lovely and cheery!

Those Christmas trees are beautiful! What I especially love is the picture of the little shops all aglow with holiday lights. I can just imagine shopping in those little stores and finding the perfect little, unique gift that will have special meaning for the recipient. Something like an antique locket, or pocket watch, a special edition book, or some other little treasure.

Christmas-y as all heck, and I bet the interior trees and bed with greenery on headboard are in houses without cats.

@stevieb
Thank you for the lovely post, all so charming, so magical and so holiday. Only to stroll the streets of Austria, Germany, France and London for one more holiday season and have access to all the money I need for holiday shopping and donating to my favorite charities, especially.

If you are visiting near the Cape May, NJ area, you can walk through its downtown pavilion shopping area and see storefronts trimmed for the holidays with lights and greenery. The mall walkway is also alight and trimmed with wreaths. Enjoy a hot chocolate while on a bench !

Homes vie for best decorated with lights and wreaths. ( Not sure if they still have the horse drawn carriages at night though ).

Wherever you are, peace and blessings !

Each photo is so lovely, appealing and festive! I love the trees and all the ornaments, outstanding and full of Christmas cheer. You definitely have the feeling of Christmas in each picture.

There are companies and design teams that do all that elaborate Christmas decorating and they take it all down in January.

These are so beautiful and definitely puts you in the spirit of Christmas. The top two are my favorites. The bed with the greenery and cards is a little too far for me though.

I have always preferred and had a large, traditional tree. Heavy with ornaments that are very old and others collected over the years. For me, red is the quintessential Christmas color. I love these photos.
