Boxing Day - Christmas Decorating - Part Two

My Boxing Day plan is to sit and stitch and read and bird and relax.
A Mellow Day.

Here's the rest of the holiday decorations.

The buffet in the dining room has a forest of small trees. 

The trees are all decorated to reflect nature - mushrooms, pine cones, birds, and critters.

One small tree has Hallmark miniature bird and bird-themed ornaments.

We also have an owl tree!

This tree is in the living room.

The theme - gardening!

On to the family room where my mother's big bird tree is on display. 

In conjunction we also have two smaller trees with bird houses.

This year I set up my collection of hand-carved wooden Santas.

I have dozens and dozens of holiday salt & pepper shakers, but only put out a few this year.

I did get up the energy to put out my Emma Bridgewater water winter mugs.  

And I'll end our Holiday Decorating Tour with this advent calendar and a snowflake adorned winter tree.

Where to begin, where to begin?!? I love those little trees! Especially the white one in the urn!! Who plays the piano? The two miniature bird house trees really make me smile big. :D AHHH! I can't help thinking I would be afraid of that Santa front and center Beth. He looks... upset. That advent calendar is so fantastic!!
