Ready For Christmas

Hello Again From The French Hen's Nest.  
   Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays.  Here are just a few Christmas photos.  I love Christmas and everything that it represents. 
Entrance, and dining room.

Bedroom fireplace

Headboard

Even my Santos doll gets a new crown

and a bouquet


Antlers White?  Gold???

    I bought the deer head with antlers from Target last year, and really like it. My first thought was to paint it white, but thought gold would be nice for Christmas.



The doll house always gets decorated for Christmas.

     I hope that you have had a blessed year, and ask that you please keep friends and family that have lost loved ones, our military, who are overseas, or in the hospital for the holidays in your prayers.

Thank you so much for the visit, wishing you a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Happy New Year.

Till Nest Time,

Jeannie and Linda

Update On Paris Grey Weekend


Hello Again from The French Hen's Nest
 

UPDATE:  For the past few years, I've been looking for the right drawer handles.  I was using white ribbon until I could find what I wanted.  I ordered french handles, and bought  more french handles,  but like most, they just didn't fit.  Finally, I spotted these glass like handles at TJMAXX, and knew that the modern look would add a fresh new look.  So happy with the result.  Thank you for stopping by.  (Below is the original post)





 I had mentioned in my last post, (More Weekend Finds) that I had found a three drawer French style chest to transform. It was in rough shape, painted black with multiple colored flowers, and other symbols.

Fall Decor for the Front Porch









Hello Again From the French Hen's Nest,

  Are you enjoying the beautiful Fall weather?  This is my very favorite time of year, you can work in the yard, and not have a heat stroke, great time to get things done.  

  I shared my Simple Dinning Room Decor last week, and after five days of rain, I was able to plant some Fall flowers, and decorate my front porch for Fall, which will stay until it's time for Christmas decor.

  You will notice that my summer flowers, tomatoes and bell peppers are still in full bloom.  A few years ago I was able to harvest my grape tomatoes through the middle of November, don't know if that will happen this year, depending on how they look.
Ready for the cooler weather







Pillows, Pottery Barn, throws, Pier 1, found at GW for $8.00







I made this last year, a friend gave me the ears of corn from her garden, just added ribbon and fall leaves
 
 
 

  

Simple back door decor
Back/side yard


Zinnias are blooming like crazy, hate to see them go





You know that Fall is here when the spider lilies bloom, popping up everywhere
I made this from Virginia Creeper vine that grows like crazy on my fence



Grape and Heirloom tomatoes hanging in there

  Thank you so much for the visit. Hope that you are enjoying this beautiful Fall weather.

Till Nest Time,


Jeannie

Simple Fall Dinning Room Decor



Hello Again From the French Hen's Nest,

  Hope that you are enjoying this beautiful weather, not too hot, and not too cool.  Fall is my favorite time of year, just wish it lasted a little longer.  It has been so warm, that my garden is still in full bloom, my tomatoes are still growing like crazy.  I love it, but it's time to decorate the porch, and the dinning room with fall colors.  Guess I'll have to put the porch decorations off for a little while.  
   However, I can do something in the dinning room.  Here a few simple decorations for Fall.



A single garland above the mirror


Fall leaf garland on the mantle with bowl of lemons



Garland around a vine wreath
Wall by the stairs, pictures are never straight







   

Enjoy these lovely Fall days.

Till Nest Time,

Jeannie
