This photo-heavy post features the dining room, living room, and entry way.

The dining room:

I started collecting Jim Shore gnomes this year.

I now have nine.

This tree which came into being last year, fired up my gnome-mania.

I long have enjoyed decorating faux tees with nature ornaments such as mushrooms.

My sister's Department 56 Christmas Village display.

She is also responsible for the table decor.

Titmouse

Raven

Parrot and Cockatiel 

Now on to the living room:

Hallmark miniature ornaments - birds and bird-related.

This is not all by far as they are now aged 26 and 30.

What's this? Trees and more gnomes

The Big Tree

The hallway & stairwell

Ceramic milk jugs, Marjolein Bastin planter, and European Robin advent calendar.

The advent calendars are my a British artist, Angela Harding. I quite like her style.

On Christmas Day I'll feature the Family Room.
