MY 2016 CHRISTMS DECOR

mousiegirl — Mon, 09 Jan 2017 23:16:13 GMT

Well, now that everyone is over Christmas, here I am posting pictures. I had intended to post right after Christmas but fell ill, so didn't do anything for a week but stay in bed. I will be posting over the next several days.

The first pictures are of my Winter Woods display on my kitchen table.

Amazing!!!

I so wish I could take this all in in person. There is so much detail. As a whole, it is phenomenal, but I see individual things that are so intricate and interesting on their own as well.

I know the photos we post on here don't do justice to what our displays look like in real life (I know mine don't) so I can only imagine the magic this is in person!

Just beautiful @mousiegirl.

I'd love to be up close and personal, too. I agree @Mominohio. So many pretty items to see. Love.

Wow! What a collection. I especially love the deer. I can't imagine all the time put into this huge display. I hope you leave it up all winter to enjoy. Glad you are feeling better.

Awesome displays, Mousie. I don't know if I'd have the patience or abilty to make such a beautiful and intricate display.

@mousiegirl Well, I knew your decor would be beautiful but it's beyond that. What imagination, wit and work that went into creating those scenes. Of course I love the deer and also the many different types of owls that you displayed. Love all of it. Anxiously awaiting more pics to follow.

@mousiegirl, OH MY, I love it all! It's so warm, inviting, and full of critters. HA! And you know, I was just thinking it's almost more fun to see it now then at Christmas...I think we all are a little down after the holidays are over and it's nice to see this and have a bit of a pick-me-up. I'll confess, I haven't taken down anything yet that I put out for Christmas. I think I've mentioned that me knee is all messed up after scope surgery three months ago...yes, I've mentioned it many times cause it's about all I can think about. Ha! I didn't put all that many decorations out to begin with, and was still putting a few things out even a couple of days before the 25th. I'm in no hurry (or shape) to take it down. And I went a little nuts when those set of three Valerie trees went down to $21. I ordered like four sets. They're all over the place and I so love every evening around 5:00 p.m. watching them all come on. I told my husband last night I didn't want to put them away at all. Oh.....and then there's that BIG problem of just where the heck am I going to store all twelve of them. LOL!

Thanks for posting the pics. Wishing you good health in 2017!

@circles It's all staying up at least until the end of January, maybe longer.

@mousiegirl, I love the "woodsy" theme, and you know I love the owls! My question is .......... where do you store all your decor, and do you help doing all this!

@Hooty No help no how, lol. I store all gingerbread decor in the kitchen except for the tree and ornaments, those go to the storeroom downstairs. The woodsy display items will go into cabinets and closets, here's hoping they all fit. If not, I will put smaller items into plastic bins to go in the storeroom. All garlands, wreaths, picks, ornaments go to the storeroom in plastic bins. I might as well have said I store everything all over.

@mousiegirl, This must be so amazing in person. I'd really love to be there to see it all up close. I see so many textures, layers, and unique pieces mixed in.

The forum format reduces the size of our photos so much that it's hard to see many of the details, which is understandable, but unfortunate.

Great job. I hope you're continuing to feel better after being ill.

@SHOPR Yes, pretty much back to normal, but during the winter, I am like a bear, just want to hibernate, moving slowly, while the house is screaming "take care of me," LOL. I am planning to bake mini pumpkin loaves for the freezer today, but feeling very lazy.

Beautiful displays and I tried to look at all your animals and some are so adorable!! Looks great. I would leave it out as long as I could. My decorations were put away New Years into new cloth storage boxes.
