Wishing you all a calm and peaceful holiday season.
Not feeling too glitzy this season.
I find myself preferring just a few greens,
a little shine and, of course...
...always a bit of vintage charm.
...and here's the charm!
Aren't these vintage little red slippers the sweetest?

Christmas morning seems such a long ways away...
...if you are under seven and waiting for Santa!

Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers for Mom.
We feel your love....

Dearest Laura, the red slippers are the cutest "Santa-Claus-stockings" i've ever seen! :o)
Very pretty, your "not so glitzy" decoration, too. I wish you wonderful holidays - sending warm hugs from cold & snowy Austria, Traude
Beauty in simplicity-love it!
My best wishes for your Mom, may she have a full and easy recovery.
Blessings,
Kimberly
The red slippers are so cute
Your decorations are beautiful and they certainly don't have to be glitzy. You are having one stressful year and the fact that you have the energy to decorate at all is wonderful.
Thank you for continuing to share your decorating ideas and life with us. It helps us as much as I'm sure it does you.
I hope your mum is doing o.k.
Love and hugs,

Hi there, I just stopped by before I go to bed.
Have had a lot of things to do this week so I just needed to sit down in front of the computer for a while. To get some inspiration, and I always get that when I visit you.
Wish you a nice weekend!

Nice collection of vintage Christmas and the slippers are too cute!!!!!!!!!! TALLULAH'S
So beautiful! I really liked the flowers and stars in metal! Ruff and absolutely gorgeous.
Hugs, Carina
I just look at your photos and say WOW! The beauty in the simplicity of the vintage pieces makes me want to rethink all of my decorating!! Where do you find all your fabulous stuff!

I just love all the silver/tin bits and pieces.. I saw similar silver reflectors recently and couldn't decide if I should buy them.. Now I am thinking YES.. Love that silver tin also... so sweet
Wishing you soft and gentle days leading up to christmas Laura.. ciao xxx Julie
Those little slippers are so cute. I love the simple beauty here. I'm feeling a bit more rustic and simple this year. The kids will demand their favorites but I think less is more for me this year.
Applause...fabulous...I love the simplicity. It seems something is in the air to cut back on all the glitz. I, too, am going for a more serene season. I love what you do.

Hey girlfriend!
Lovin' it all!!! Sorry to hear about your mom...but, glad to hear she is doing a bit better. I am sure this is especially difficult being the holiday season, but I am sure she will be back home way before Christmas---with her "bells" on!
Your treasures were shipped today, so should be there soon! xo...deb
Love the natural wood with the colours. Charmaine
I am not a fan of bright red, but even I have to admit that those little slippers are the cutest things. I would have picked them up as well.
En voyant cette boite en fer je ne sais pas si je vais passer une bonne journée....magnifique!

Those red shoes are just darling!

I'm SO with you on the simplistic approach to decorating this year. I don't want to buy anything - I'm sure I have plenty in my attic already. I don't want over the top sparkle, just a natural, simple decor this year. But I do have 3 kids, and I have to keep them in mind and do want (especially for my youngest) to make sure there's a little bit of 'awe' and wonder involved. So we'll see, but we won't be putting out decorations up until maybe this weekend :)

Anthro... one mile from home... oh dear! :)
Keeping your mom, you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
Love your post... (and relate to it) simple and vintage Christmas decorations seem to be perfect this year.
Wishing you peace and joy~

I Love your images of industrial vintage mixed with nature and a whole lot of Love. I have been following your blog now for awhile and have finally found the time, after being gifted with 2 babies in 2 years, to begin my own. You are an inspiration for creating a house a home. xo

I love old light reflectors, yours have such a beautiful old patina...hope your mom is recuperating well...XO
Love that star with the red, never seen anything like it, and those little red slippers, too cute. I bought some small old red tool boxes, my intent was to make like a shadow box, didn't happen. Nor did the ornaments out of the string light guards. All I need now is something shinney and some greenery. Thanks for the inspiration!
Susanne.
