@traveler Thank you! When I get tired of all the black & white I'll switch to another color combo lol and use the pieces I already have.

@rockygems123 Beautiful photos! I was sorry that I missed out on the midnight hurricanes with the etched trees by Valerie. Now that I saw how lovely yours look on your dining table, I'm really sorry! 😉 Enjoy!

I have lived in a small apartment and 2 smallish houses since marrying 30+ years ago. After moving to our present house I downsized the Christmas tree to one of the slim style and I can still pack decorations on it. There is a hutch in the kitchen so I wire a lighted garland over it and hang food and kitchen related ornaments. I have one of Valerie Parr Hill's Christmas cloches that I leave out year round. I put away the church and put something else inside. Right now it has a small bird nest with fall leaves on it. Other times it may have a glittered Eiffel Tower figurine. I have 2 ceramic pumpkins on the floor near the TV and a cute painted fall screen in a frame that I switched out with the woven piece that is usually there. The closets in this house are small but amazingly we have a 3 car garage which solves some of the storage issues. Oh and in the bedroom I put a bottle brush tree placed in a china pitcher.

Like many of you, I use the basics all year and jazz them up with place mats and runners, decorative toppers for lanterns, bows and lights to highlight select areas, and pillow covers. I use the same pillows on chairs and the sofa, but over the years have purchased seasonal and holiday covers that zip on and off. It is easy to add a holiday flair to a room with different covers, and they are easy to store too.

@Zsazsa Thank you! I think because the midnight hurricanes were such a hit Valerie will may try to bring them back. Plus she uses a lot of black accents in her home, hopefully she'll bring back even more black / midnight, would love that!

@traveler Did you notice that Valerie is selling the three mini houses that were on her tree that you asked about long ago?

@mousiegirlaand @traveler @ is the item #H224860? They are the cutest houses in buffalo plaid! Ordered, thanks for the heads up

Yes, thank you. I ordered the red/black ones. The white/black was already sold out. I decorate my fireplace mantle, top of a cabinet and 70" round table. So these will fit in.

Love your cabinet! I went to estate sale and they had "similar" one -- I was 10 minutes late in deciding☹️. I'm still thinking about that darn piece!!!
I like your decorations too🙂
