My Festive Entrance Way....

has got to be my favourite spot in the house so far.  And the funny thing is no one notices cause you want in the house as fast as possible to get out of the cold.  I can't exactly enjoy a coffee in the tiny little room, because well, it's tiny AND it's cold.  So I'll take a few photos and enjoy it that way:)  Cheesy I know!  

So this is the first stop in my entrance way....the curtain!  I had scraps of the Deck the Halls fabric (ok, that's a LIE...I had scraps from one of my packages....I still have 9 unopened ones that I just had delivered on Friday!) so I made this little curtain.  The bottom of the curtain was made with the scallop circle die.  I did the "rag" quilted look because ONE...I love it and TWO...you don't have to sew or cut straight to make it look great!

The next photo is my Christmas tree.  I wrapped it in a pinecone garland and then accented with some bells.  It's hard to see, but the bells have circles of the Deck the Halls fabric on top of them (three different sizes) frayed and waved then a button on top.  You can see that the tree is on a little table runner....rag quilt style again, with the Deck the Halls fabric (thanks Andrea for the great idea!!!)  I LOVE LOVE LOVE this fabric...have I mentioned that yet?

The decor blocks were actually made last year, but I thought they looked great with this decor.  

Here's a close up of the runner for you....my favourite part!

Well, I hope you enjoyed the "welcome" to my home!  Wish you could all join me for some treats, stamping and fun this holiday season!!!  I suppose this is the next best thing...my entrance way and I'll continue to share projects:)  Have a great night!

Take care,

Heather
