bare walls and an eagerness...

this weekend I took down the bird pictures and crucifix, and moved some furniture around as well -
(please click on images to be taken to their sources)

and thoughts are turning towards Christmas........but first, before anything, there is Advent

As eager as I am to spend another winter here, there are some changes going on with my decorating
(surprise surprise)

some key elements I am focusing on:
- Christ
- simple
- organic/natural
- comfortable


and for the girls' room!  color + vintage + farmhouse

peaceful advent blessings,
