Decoratoring with Thrifted Christmas Tins - Showing you How I'm Using the New Vintage Christmas Tins in my Christmas Decor

Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad your here! 

Today, I'm so excited to share how I'm using the new Christmas tins, 

I found out thrifting last month. 

at first, my thought was to use the vintage Christmas tins on the shelf above the kitchen cabinets, 

well....

 I did use the red candy stripe tin as a riser and I thought the winter cabin scene would look nice

 together in this vignette.

***

I used the cream colored poinsetta tin as a riser with a sprig of faux floral in the vignette.

***

The awesome Curries and Ives tin went upon the hutch, I love the winter scene on this tin.

*** 

The pair of white candle tin, I thought gave a nice touch of color.

Welcoming the Christmas Season -Getting Ready to Decorate for Christmas

It Snowed Over Thanksgiving Week

Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad your here! 

Tomorrow is the first day of December, and I'm digging out my Christmas bins. 

I have a few traditions I tried to incorporate....

1.Count down stocking

- I like having a count down to Christmas, it build the excitement and helps me remember all of the extracurricular activities that go on during the Christmas season!

2.Christmas Cards

- I still like sending and receiving Christmas cards, a couple of years back I revamped my Christmas card holder.

3. Garland

- Garland is the starting point to my decorating, so I like to get the garland up before I start adding Christmas touches.

This is two of three tubs I have with garland.

 Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to stop by My Little Colorado Cottage.

It's time to Decorate for the Season!

 So until my next post......
