I'm so glad you came. My home tour has lots and lots of photos, so I will keep the commentary to a minimum. For more details you can stop by the indivdual room links.
~Enjoy the tour~
Welcome to our home, and come on in!
Our porch
(I'm saving a spot on the entry cabinet for our nativity, ours broke and I am searching for another.)
The first room you will see from our entry is the living room.
The first room you will see from our entry is the living room.
Walking from the entry past our stairs and powder room, to the right is our dining room.
Now straight ahead to our family room.
Sharing the cathedral ceiling and skylights with our family room is our kitchen.
We didn't decorate our bedrooms or our basement guest suite this year, at least not yet ; ), so the last stop will be a glance up the stairs to the window in our staircase.
I hope you enjoyed your visit! Before you go I would love if you can take a moment to leave a comment so I know you were here. Thanks!

You have a beautiful home! Your Christmas trees are pretty and I love your black dining hutch with all the white pieces tucked inside. Thanks for visiting my blog.
Really liked your vintage jars with the old light builds in them, great idea! Please stop by for your giveaway if you get a chance,Laura
Wow, what a gorgeous home you have!!! I love the festive touches throughout and everything just looks gorgeous!! Visiting from Between Naps On the Porch!
Your home is so beautiful Elizabeth. I love your family room tree and the white furniture. You are a wonderful decorator. Blessings, Pamela

Your home is festive and beautiful. Love the bread box that I noticed in your kitchen.
Blessings to you. Amy
Great front porch vignettes. I borrowed your idea of putting the muskoka chair on your front porch. I'm not sure why I hadn't done that before, but it adds just the right amount of interest where before it was pretty blank. Do you leave your blankets and skates etc out all the time. I would be afraid the wind would blow the blanket away. It all looks so welcoming.
Your home is beautiful Elizabeth! Happy Holidays!
Beautifully done, Elizabeth - and so cozy! I just adore that big black hutch, and your living room with the b/w accents is just gorgeous! ;)

I was here (and will be back) - loved your home, some of my favorites are your Keady sign and all your vintage mason jars.
Everything's gorgeous I love your porch always the sled is still a classic! the lights in the ball jars is a cute idea!
I just love your blog and your decorating style. You have real, livable furnishings and decor. Some blogs have furnishings that are very beautiful, but very "over the top" in both style and wallet. Your place is very lovely and makes me feel "I can do that, I can afford that, I may have one of those!" Thanks so much and have a Merry Christmas!
You have a lot of pretty Christmasy touches. I really like that room with the white furniture and the black accents :)
Beautiful decorations, beautiful Home:)Greetings from Warsaw:)
Enjoyed the tour! I love all your decorations. Love your black hutch filled with white dishes and your kitchen shelf is so cute! Thanks for sharing! :)
Enjoyed the tour of your lovely home Elizabeth! The little bench table you have in front of your couch is a great piece. Love all the use of canning jars too!
Thank you Elizabeth for sharing your beautiful home at Christmas with all of us. I really enjoyed my visit. I'm now one of your newest followers.
Hi Elizabeth,
Your home is beautiful all decked out for the Holiday Season. Love all of the winter sports on the front porch....
Your hutch looks so good with all of your white china...
Have a great week!
All the Best,

Hi Elizabeth,
I love all of your Christmas decor. You have created a very warm and welcoming Christmas-sy feeling home. I'm sure your children and husband love it and feel very comfortable in it, as would your guests.
Your porch was such an inspiration to me when I decorated mine. I even found skis!
Have a lovely evening.
Hugs, Cindy
Your home is charming. I love all the rustic touches. My favorite by far are the jars filled with the old fashioned bulbs - very fun! Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful job Elizabeth! I see a lot of love put into every detail. Merry Christmas!

Gorgeous and so cozy! I love your whit slips in your family room and am itching to try some in my home. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much for commenting, you are too sweet and kind. I'm following you now too. Your home is beautiful and so is your decor! I see you love white slipcovers too, I'm just so obsessed. My favorite thing in your Christmas decorating is the mason jars with the bulbs and your use of the pinecones are dreamy! Merry Christmas!
I love your canning jars with the vintage ornaments in them! Perfect.
Visiting from The Nester's tour - Merry Christmas!
I love your mix of decorations, you have such a lovely home.
There is so much great stuff going on in your home, I actually had to start taking notes. I loved the galvanized bucket with greens, the mirror placement that shows off the living room, the tree photo montage...everything.
You have a beautiful home.
So glad I found you through Nester's Holiday Tour!
Your home looks lovely and I love your adorable tree ornaments, esp. the "Dear Santa" ones!
Very pretty! I like all the simple little touches :-)

Your home looks great! I actually went through and looked at all of your photos twice. You've just got fun little touches everywhere!
Merry Chrismtas!
What a tease! All these beautiful home tours on such a busy week for me!
But I am so glad to steal away for a bit, and to come over to Blue Clear Sky, for your tour is a delight! So many beautiful rooms...and so many wonderful touches in each room. Little surprises abound--from the lovely wreath on the front door to the fabric garlands on your trees to the colored bulbs in the Mason jars to the group of rolling pins with brightly hued handles. Even the stack of red plates on the hutch called to me!
Thanks for sharing (and for visiting me at Thinking About Home). :-)
So cute house....I want that white slip cover on your chair. I love the ruffles. You must sew. I have A-D-D when it comes to sewing. :)
Your home looks so cozy, warm and inviting. The Christmas decor is gorgeous! I didn't realize you're a quilter-it's a passion of mine as well =)
