Christmas Decor

Like I said in my previous post, I'm going to forgo putting up a Christmas tree and lights, to try to ease hubby into Christmas decorations. lol
So I'm thinking of simple cheap stuff that will look cute and not thrown together. These are my ideas so far:
  • Mistletoe, over our bedroom door (cute and cheesy right!? lol)
  • adding a fake sprig of holly around the white cloth napkins on the dining room table. There are also green decorative plates on that table
  • taking the green apples out of the bowl on the dining room table and putting Christmas balls in there.
  • lining the bar with tea light candles
  • draping garland on the wall and ceiling over the bar area
  • hanging a stocking for hubby on the bar (for 12 days of Christmas)
  • a bowl of Christmas ornaments on the coffee table
  • Christmas towels in the guest bathroom
  • shower curtain in the guest bathroom
The rest of this is not Christmas stuff, but stuff I want to do around the house
  • hang picture frames
  • hang mirror (with decal)
  • hang canvas picture
  • get grey sheets for bedroom
  • get white comforter cleaned
  • get white curtains for bedroom and living room
  • get green curtains for dining room
I'm going to concentrate on the Christmas decor first, and the stuff that I already have. I'll probably start looking into getting this stuff starting next week.
I'm not 100% sure of the color scheme yet. I'm thinking golds and creams or I could go totally bold and do purple, blue, and green. oooooorrr I could match my house colors and do grey/silver and green. I'm still thinking on that.
