Simple Christmas Decor, and a "Parade of Christmas" Link-up!

We're hosting Christmas dinner at our home this year, and I've been thinking about some simple yet beautiful decor ideas, getting inspired to plan and prepare for a meaningful day.

Here are some decor ideas from Country Living that I'm mulling over ~

ribbons on which to hang Christmas cards

daisies and cranberries

natural packaging, accented with cinnamon sticks

pinecones and pomanders - oranges laced with cloves
(wouldn't this be a fun project for the children?)

mini-trees in teacups

greenery and tealights, against golden hues

stockings hung over the piano

What are you planning for Christmas?  How does your family celebrate the birth of Christ?  I'd love to hear all of your ideas, and thought that a Parade of Christmas link-up would be a great way to share.

You are welcome to link to any of your Christmas-themed posts and ideas, from decor, to recipes, to how you encourage a meaningful Christmas.  I can't wait to read about what you are doing (or not doing)!

As a common blog carnival courtesy, please add this sentence to the bottom of your post: "Please join us at Like a Bubbling Brook for a Parade of Christmas!"  Then link back here so others can join in the fun!






Warmly,

I truly enjoy reading your comments. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts; you've all helped to create a wonderful little community here at Like a Bubbling Brook.

Please remember the old adage "if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all." While I love to hear from you, comments encouraging division and condemnation will not be published - rather, they will be promptly deleted.

I'm looking forward to reading what you have to say! I wish we could chat over coffee or tea one day ~

xoxo,

Jaime
