It's starting to look festive around here...


Similar to last year ~ but different.  I love the "Chocolate Therapy" paint on the fireplace wall with all the other walls painted white.  Martina is still my favourite listen for the holidays.

Now that I'm looking back at last years photos I much prefer the new colours to the ginger walls we had before.

Next on my agenda is baking and knitting.  And more baking.  It's really starting to look and smell festive around here and the snow fall is adding to the atmosphere.  Wishing everyone a lovely first weekend of December!  Best,  Renee

Hi, thanks for liking my white christmas. I think I love yours more...you have a tree. I am really going to miss my Christmas tree. It's an absolute blizzard over here - two hundred pile-ups so far and it's -18C. I am not leaving the house tomorrow, I am sitting at home and knitting.

Ooh, love that wall color. While growing up all our walls were always white. In high school I painted my bedroom avocado green and love it. Now our home is yellow with a couple of rooms having a lighter brown and one blue accent wall. It was those colors when we bought it, but we added the blue. Now I'm sorta wishing for white walls. Go figure.

Oh, we were going to set up our tree today and both of us completely forgot!

What a beautiful mantle display ~ the chocolate color is stunning as a backdrop! All of your holiday decorations look so festive artfully displayed. And I know your house must smell wonderful with your baking!

Have a relaxing weekend and enjoy this special time!
