Christmas spirit- the feeling and the essential oil blend- is in the air at my house and I’m so excited to share my fully festive living room this year!
As you know, we moved into this house last year just before Christmas, so we didn’t get to decorate at all last year- and boy did I make up for that this year! And now onto my little-bit-rustic Christmas living room full of antiques, dollar store finds, and hand-me-downs (some of my favorite kinds of decor!)
I couldn’t figure out a cute way to winterize our gallery wall- until I realized our deer head from Kirkland’s needed a scarf to keep warm! 😉
After I spent three days shaping and lighting up our tree my mom texted me offering me her 6.5 foot huge tree and at that point I was too tired to do the same thing again with another tree that I decided to use that bigger tree for next year (which means Christmas clearance ornament shopping this year 😉 )
The Our First Home ornament was a free gift from PersonalizationMall.com (not affiliate) that we got a coupon for in the mail after we bought the house!
I shared a photo of this amazing garland on Instagram a bit ago, can you believe that Cyle picked this out?! PS- I spy a photobombing kitten 😉
The winter scene cloches are my favorite Christmas craft ever- check out the tutorial here.
And nothing spells Christmas and cozy like tons of blankets on the couch and cute antique reindeer statues that I’ve shared about a dozen times on my Instagram, but  can you blame me? They’re too damn cute.
I couldn’t resist this deer sequin pillow from Joann’s and the Christmas tree pillow is from Lowe’s!
And of course, the moment I was done with taking photos and these mutts came inside they messed up my perfectly tossed blankets. Lucky they’re cute 😉

Hey Kristina, I love your Christmas decorations of your home, and especially your tree.
This year i’ve gone with a red white and blue theme for our christmas tree lights as a show of support for the poor Parisians who won’t be around this year to experience a Christmas.
Anyway, I really do hope you have a great Christmas

Your decorations sound so beautiful and so sincere of a theme! Thanks so much for coming by.

I really loved how you decorated your living room. All the decorations fit so well together, and the scarf for the moose was a really fun idea.

Thanks, Nakeya! That deer is one of my favorite pieces on my gallery wall!
