A sneak peek...

 Hi Friends...
   I couldn't hold out any longer...so this weekend I started to pull out some of my Christmas stuff. I usually start Thanksgiving weekend... but with Thanksgiving being late this year I was itching to start! I only worked on my kitchen and powder room and a few little touches in the entry. 
Here's a little peek...
 Love this little boxwood wreath I just found in a small decor shop near me.
 I'm using a lot of live greenery and pinecones this year.
 That's it for now...I'll finish up over the weekend. We're going Friday morning to cut our tree:)

     Wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving!!

    It all looks terrific. I did the same and decorated today. I also used lots of natural elements.

    Your Christmas touches look great, Martina! I'm looking forward to starting my decorating on Friday. Not sure what I'm doing yet, but it's always fun to look through my decorations and figure it out! Happy Thanksgiving!

    I love your "sneak peek"! I'm using a lot of red in my Christmas décor this year too (and pinecones). I have never started decorating before Thanksgiving, but must admit, I have cheated myself! LOL! You're right. Thanksgiving is late this year. Love all of your white dishes contrasted against the red and greenery!

    I'm itching to start, too, Martina! But it still looks like it's going to be after Thanksgiving. Oh, well. It'll still get one. Love all the natural touches you're using.
    Happy Thanksgiving!

    Martina, I'm itching to pull out the Christmas tartans too, but we are expecting house guests for Thanksgiving. Guess I better wait. ;-)
    Thanks for a hint of what's to come. I see hints of tartan. Alison @ The Polohouse is featuring Plaid Tidings for her Favorites on the 1st party. You need to link up.

    I started in my kitchen today!! Couldn't wait any longer! Did you happen to get that deer towel at Home Goods? I almost picked up one exactly like it but then settled on plain red and green plaid ones.

    Your home is gorgeous with the natural touches. I went in that direction too with pine cones, berries and greens. So peaceful. Love the boxwood wreath in the frame.
    Thank you for sharing great inspiration.

    Thank you also for stopping by and your kind comment.
    Have fun Decorating.
    Hugs, Celestina Marie
