Welcome.... come on in and stay awhile!
Last year I loved how Kim added her Santa face to the mirror above her fireplace, so I copied her ;)
Added a swag to the inside of my front door, and another large poinsettia in my plant stand.
A simple staircase this year. Two wreaths that I just added a few red twigs to and hung them with red gingham ribbon.
I wanted to create a warm Christmas welcome to all who enter!

The 2 wreaths on the stairs looks wonderful. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

I love your entry. The Santa is a great addition. I love the idea of adding wreaths to the railing. Great idea.
Your entry looks beautiful!

Love it all. I really love the wreaths on the stair railing. This year I decided not to do the swags I normally do on the stairway. This looks like a great alternative! How do you keep them in place so they are not sliding down the rail?
LOVE the wreaths on the banister...very CUTE!!
Blessings,
Linda
I love all your Christmas touches in your foyer. I really like the wreathes hanging from the stair rail. You have a beautiful home.

I'd say you accomplished that warm welcome here, Martina! Your poinsettias are gorgeous and so full! Love the wreaths on the staircase. I'm all for simple!
Your foyer is looking festive! Love the wreaths hanging on the banister. That's a nice alternative to hanging garland.
Love the wreaths on the stair case, and the gingham ribbon is perfect. Much easier then garland and still has the 'wow' factor.
Martina,
I really like you stair rail. I am looking for ideas for mine and yours is my favorite so far. Lovely!!
Hi Martina,
Love your wreaths on the hand rail...The red & white gingham is just perfect. I really like how you hung a swag on the back of your main door...
All the Best,
Christine
It all looks so pretty, Martina! The Santa on the mirror is so cute and I like how you hung the wreaths on the stairs...a new twist! Very nice!

Martina I love your touches in the foyer area! I also love that santa. I have him on our front door wreath. He may end up inside this year though.
Your foyer is so pretty. Love the wreaths and gingham ribbon on the stair railing and the large poinsettia.
It is beautiful. I really like that swag...did you put that together?
My favorite is the wreaths on the stairs. I will have to use your idea on my stairwell banister next year. Really cool.
Martina,
Your home looks so inviting, warm and sooo festive for the Christmas season. I absolutely love how you hung the wreaths on your banister. I'm still putting my Christmas decor up but have a ways to go still!
Nancy

Oh so beautiful! Love the wreaths on the staircase and the clean bright look! Happy Holidays!

MARTINA IT LOOKS FABULOUS....
The swag on your front door is beautiful and I'm definitely copying the wreaths up the stairs. I think I don't need to decide how to decorate for Christmas - I can just copy your ideas as you post them LOL. x Sharon

It is so cozy and welcoming!
Have a pretty day!

Hi Martina! Oh, I love your festive Christmasy entry! I love your little Santie on your mirror and I'm just drooling over those wreaths you've tied on your railing! I love that! You've done so well! I love it all.

The Santa face is adorable, I would kill for a beautiful stair railing like yours, but it would have to include a second story addition on my house LOL!

Hi dear Martina! You sure are decked up now and I love it, specially the wreaths in the stairs, so lovely! Elegant decor. Hugs, FABBY
Your holiday decorating is so simple and so lovely. I adore the wreaths on the stairway instead of the usual garland. I might have to remember that for next year. Thank you for inspiring :D
Sooo beautiful! I love the wreaths on the stairwell.
I love how you've decorated your foyer. I adore red gingham and I love how you've used it on your wreaths. And nothing beats Santa's smiling face!
I love the idea of wreaths going up the banister! I've seen them on Pinterest and in some mags recently and have thought of doing multiples. I used a single one in the middle of the run last year. Guess I was before my time. LOL
Very pretty! Thank you for joining me at Home Sweet Home!

Martina,

Wishing you a great day!
