Renovating and decorating our new/old house, a cozy cape cod built in 1940. It won't happen overnight, so join me for the journey.
I wrapped a present to go inside an estate sale sleigh with Kraft paper and ribbon. I love using that paper to wrap gifts in; it's so inexpensive and simple, leaving extra money to buy beautiful ribbon.
This year Santa sits on my favorite piece of furniture...an antique dresser that holds all my "special" seasonal things that need a safe place to stay.
I love this reindeer with his funny bobble head....he even has a tiny pinecone for a tail! I better get back to work trying to uncover my dining room table from all the decorations and glitter.

How cute and I love that ribbon. I'm not typically a fan of green ribbon but that one is very beautiful and soft looking :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! I love the antique dresser as well!
ReplyDeleteSanta is so adorable! I love using kraft paper, too. I bought one roll last year and it lasted all year.
ReplyDeleteYes! Love the kraft paper. You're so good at putting together these little vignettes. I'd like to take a peek inside that french country book, too!
ReplyDeleteit looks adorable! i also use kraft paper for my gifts... this year i bought white and a silvery gray. can't wait to get all my presents wrapped so the tree doesn't look so lonely.
ReplyDeleteLove that dresser! Beautiful. I too enjoy wrapping in the kraft paper. Simple yet pretty.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet santa and reindeer. Your display is adorable.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet. Love kraft paper too, but always have trouble getting the tape to stick...it's so heavy. Tips?
ReplyDeleteJulie, I don't have a good tip to share...I just use more tape on the bottom to keep it together.
ReplyDeleteAnother great, classic vignette -- Love it!
ReplyDeleteYour Santa is awesome...I love that old world look about him and I love the little reindeer! he looks like he has been around for awhile! ;-D
ReplyDeleteI'm wrapping my gifts in gold, red tartan and kraft paper this year. It looks really pretty together.

Santa is gorgeous! I can see why he gets a prominent spot!!
ReplyDeleteawww, it's so fun to have a "special" piece that sits in a special spot for the holidays...it makes the holidays so magical! I think I have discovered that my special piece is a white deer!
ReplyDeletehappy december!

I love little vignettes like this that are simple and sweet! That dresser is awesome and what a great idea to store the special items in there. Craft paper is on my shopping list!
ReplyDeleteCute, I love quirky decorations. That dresser is stunning all by itself too!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! I have an almost IDENTICAL dresser that I inherited from my grandmother in my foyer! I love it!!

What a great Santa and your vignette looks so festive. The green ribbon is beautiful that you've used. I also like to splurge a little on the ribbons. Have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful! I love books stacked in all my decorating! Happy holidays! ♥
