~Christmas inspiration~

Hello everyone!!!!!

Seriously!

a disappearing act.....

I almost forgot my login....

it's been so long! :)

I have been so busy & just haven't

had much to share....

ya' know???

if I actually had time to decorate

my own house again.....I would definitely

be sharing more often!

{but I do post inspiring pictures on

facebook each day....so follow me over there

if you like!

Ticking and Toile on Facebook}

right now I'm just having fun helping other's 

decorate their homes right now! :)

{by means of my Ticking and Toile

Linen Shoppe, in case you aren't following

me!  My Etsy store found here}

most recently, my Michigan BFF Laurie,

from Heaven's Walk

dreamed up a tablecloth we made for her..

I love the way it turned out!!

I'm loving the double ruffles & the frayed edges...

Now if you don't know Laurie....you need to!

Here's her blog link so you can follow her...

she's a doll!

she is just amazing....

I am in love with her home, her garden &

she is just the sweetest!!

ok...back to Christmas...

today is the day for our family

to decorate!!!  Yay!!!!

lights are going up outside,

the tree is getting decorated inside,

as well as the rest of the house...

and bonus...it's sunny out!!

woo-hoo!

it's been raining all week so this

is a surprise!

right now I'm totally obsessed with

these skinny trees in buckets or baskets...

just love them!

but to find a tree like this around here

seems next to impossible....

everything is fat & bushy!

I need a Charlie Brown tree!! :)

although this little guy is a little fatter,

and looks totally adorable in an old box!

well....time to get going...

I've heard.....I am way behind on decorating....

I've heard....all the bloggers are already

showing their homes....

oh well!  wouldn't be the first time!! 

lol :)

I'm just excited to do it today!

How's your decorating coming??

if you're all done,

do not tell me....;)

if you're just starting...feel free

to leave a comment! lol :)

no seriously, I'd love to hear from you 

either way! 

Have a great weekend!!!

xoxoxo,

Shellagh
