{Thinking Ahead to Christmas 2011}

Wednesday, December 29, 2010
Am I crazy? I am already thinking ahead to Christmas 2011 ... and I am SO excited about it :) Let me explain ...

I never, ever, ever ever buy Christmas decor at full price. My favorite day to go shopping is the day AFTER Christmas, because all Christmas decor is 50% OFF. I scope out everything I really want ahead of time, wake up too early, and go grab it all up. Now, I don't know about you, but I was a little disappointed in Target's Christmas selection this year, there were only two things I wanted and that was it! SO, I decided to go to the Schaffer House, a home decor shop with everything you could possibly want for your home. And ... of course, all Christmas was 50% off. SO, I grabbed a few things ...




Love these birch flameless candles ... actually I just LOVE birch wood.




and I don't know why, but I had to have these mercury glass birds. I have no idea what I am going to do with them, or how I am going to use them, but I had to have them!




And don't you just love this slate chalkboard? It's going on to on my bar area next year and I'll use it as my drink menu. Love Love Love.




For next year I am still planning on decorating in all silver like I have done in the past, i just can't get enough of it, but ... I will be adding LOTS of birch and lots of mercury glass ... all DIY of course. And I am starting on some next week! Can't wait to share it all with you!

Do any of you get all of your holiday decor at 50% off also??

I always go to Hobby Lobby and get wrapping paper for next year and a few little ornaments and doo dads for the next year! Always good to take advantage of deals :)

I got some great Christmas decor for next year on major clearance as well, and I'm already looking forward to using it!

Can't wait to see your DIY's... Happy New Year!
