Welcome to Fox Hollow at Christmas
I’m really excited to share our
Cottage Christmas Holiday Mantel with you.
It’s a little different this year.
We’ve got snowmen, a frosty garland,
candy canes and lots of ornaments.
Come See!
This frosty head Qt is the star of the show.
I just love him!
He got left in the box last year.
(I’m hope he doesn’t hold that against me?)
I went a little crazy with the ornaments..
I can’t help it.
I love the sparkle & shine!
I mixed my most treasured, vintage Shiny Brites in with the not so vintage ones and added them all over.
My tea stained rag doll has her very own little tree
and the newest seat in the house.
I bought this sweet little chair in Bandon, Oregon
a few months ago and I’ve been saving it for Christmas.
I just love the vintage, ticking stripe fabric.
This is our first Christmas since the
Fireplace Makeover and it’s a real treat
to get to decorate the hearth!
I might have went a little overboard?
Oh well!
I’ve actually been holding on to
a few things since Summer
and the vintage, RC Cola Crates
are also making their debut 😉
Jim and I picked the crates up at the city wide sale that was held in Myrtle Point over the Summer. Jim got some scaffolding, so we
were both very satisfied with our prizes!
It’s fun finally getting to use them.
I just knew they needed to be filled with ornaments.

You did it again girl, made me drool! lol! My favorite color combo in all it’s Christmas wonder. Love it all! Not too much for me. The chair and doll are so sweet. I did my mantel entirely different this year with a candy theme. Doesn’t hold a candle to yours. Thanks for helping to make my morning start out bright and cheery!
Hugs,
Jann
p.s. I would love if you would share this with Share Your Cup Thursday.

It’s all so pretty, but the rag doll is my favorite. I also like the color combination you are using.

Yay! I’m finally getting your emails! Love the aqua with the red…it’s one of my favorite combos. Your Raggedy Ann takes me back to my old business Threadbare Creations. I used to pump out raggedy anns and vintage-dressed dolls like clockwork. I saved a few raggedies, but they’re all boxed up.
Maria says
How beautiful! LOVE the color combination of the red/aqua and white! Love all the little details and string of candy canes!
Bliss says
How flipping cute is that chair with that tree and that doll and the touches of aqua. Like Debbie said it’s you and that makes it all so loveable.

I am in love with your mantel! Every detail speaks to me in some way from the color scheme to the red and white gingham garland. The snowmen are adorable and the doll on the chair is precious! WOW!

First of all you can NEVER go overboard with Christmas spirit! Love
your fun colors. I am a big fan of Frosty and all things snowmen!

WOW! Love all those colors! I really like the white frame decked with candy canes! Hmmm…wonder if I can talk my hubby into buying a fireplace just so I can decorate the mantel!
