2017 Christmas Tour - Part 1 | Hymns and Verses

Hi, friends. It’s finally here – my 2017 Christmas tour! First I want to thank Mary of A Stroll Thru Life for hosting this seasonal tour! And, if you are here visiting from Jennifer’s, Decorating Delirium, welcome! I can’t wait to see her home all decked out for Christmas! Today, I’m sharing Part 1 of my 2017 Christmas Tour. And, we are going to start things off a little different with the upstairs of my home! Tomorrow, I’ll be back to share my living room, dining room and kitchen. Now, let’s get today’s tour started with a look at my cozy bedroom.

This space is my retreat at the end of the day and the place where I struggled to get out of bed each morning – ha, ha! And, I love to make it cozy – especially in the winter months. I added just a few berry accents to brighten things up for the holidays! The throw at the end of the bed is the perfect cozy blanket for winter.

Of course, I had to create a new sign for above the bed and this phrase from A Night Before Christmas was what I chose. A long winter’s nap sounds really nice right now, ha, ha.

The toile stag euro shams are from Pottery Barn last year, and I’m so glad I got them in the gray, because they didn’t have that color this year. I found THESE cream colored large wale corduroy euro shams on Amazon for such a great price and the quality is amazing. I love the texture of the corduroy – it adds to the cozy factor! I made the pom pom and jingle bell garland a few years ago and this year I draped it over the headboard. The velvet berry lumbar pillows are from HomeGoods.

I love the glow of a Christmas tree in the bedroom. I decorated the white tree with mercury glass, gray, and berry colored ornaments.

This Angels We Have Heard on High print is free to my subscribers, along with access to my free printables library. You can download and print it from your home computer. Just subscribe to my blog at the end of this post and you can get your copy today!

I saw these little glittery birds this year and just could not pass them by. Aren’t they sweet. I popped one in a snowy twig wreath to look like a nest.

When the kids were little, Mark and I would wrap their gifts in our bedroom. I guess that has become somewhat of a tradition.

Here’s a peak at our hallway upstairs. You can see a glimpse of my favorite light fixture in our home.

Now, lets move into my new home office. I just completed this space about a month ago for the One Room Challenge. Of course, I had to add a few seasonal touches to the space and my favorite is my vintage Underwood typewriter with some cedar branches and mercury glass ornaments.

I also added a few Christmas items to the shelves. The vintage Santa print is from The Graphic’s Fairy. You can find it HERE. Karen’s site is my go-to source for vintage prints.

Thank you for stopping by to see Part 1 of my 2017 Christmas home. I hope you will stop back tomorrow to see Part 2! The next stop on today’s tour schedule is Simple Stylings. I love Summer’s style and you don’t want to miss her tour!
