Jennifer Rizzo's holiday housewalk link party. Link up your home for a chance to be in next years house walk.

Hello there & welcome to our Christmas home tour!
If this is your first time here I’m Tanya from twelveOeight, and I am so glad
you are here!!
I couldn’t be more excited to participate in our huge 24 home Christmas Party 
Tour Of Homes.  If you are here from another fabulous home from our party
please make sure and click through so you don’t miss a tour.
The last tour was Molly from The Poor Sophisticate, I LOVE Molly’s style and 
what she has done with a renovated barn.  Brilliant.
 
So are you ready to relax and have some coffee?  The twinkling 
lights are on, and Dean Martin can be heard throughout the house.
Come on in!!
 I’ll show you what I’ve been up to…

 Our entry way with a few Christmas touches in soft white, silver and
of course some rustic farmhouse with our Merry + Bright wooden sign.  
Yep, those are canning jar rings!
 
A little nook in our kitchen has a lot of light coming in and was 
the perfect place for more Christmas merrymaking
The main floor in our home has a great room concept, so I have tried to 
define each area yet make it all flow together.  Here is our dining area
all ready for some Christmas entertaining. 
I used two pieces of burlap printed with a typography design to create runners that
are durable (I have a 3, 4, and 7 year old eating here daily, so durable is my mantra)
with some fresh cedar clippings, glittered pine cones and a collection of 
Mason jars full of glittery snow and mini trees.
I used a small glass bowl to elevate one of the smaller Mason jars in 
the group.  The vintage baking pan fits perfect into the iron casserole
carrier I found while thrifting.
 Behind the sofa, our Upcycled Sofa Table is covered with more cedar clippings
and some of my favorite things, and of course more glittered pine cones.
I’m loving the mix of rustic and glam right now, and wood.
Lots of wood!
We have found that we don’t really use our gas fireplace very much the 
past few years, so we tried putting the tree in front of it this year 
and like it for a change of pace.  
You have to get creative with the space you have!
 With a lot of glowing candles, white lights, and soft natural colors
my favorite things and vintage finds are right at home this winter.
  Thank you SO much for visiting today!!
I would love for you to join us each week for the 
Inspiration Monday Link Party, the party goes 
live each Sunday 11am PST

 The next stop on our fabulous group of tours is 

tomorrow Amy from The Blissful Bee!!

    You have a stunning home! (And I'm not just saying that because we both embraced the "rustic" and "glam" decor this year.) I especially love all the fresh greenery you have lying around…and the burlap table runner! So cute!

    I just wanted to let you all know that I added a new list. It has taken me awhile to let everyone know due to server issues. Everything should be back on track now.
