A Touch of Vintage 2015 Christmas Home Tour : Atta Girl Says

I’ve shown you bits and pieces of rooms and spaces over the last month, but today I’m thrilled to share my compete 2015 Christmas Home Tour with you. Get our delicious recipes, latest posts and exclusive content delivered straight to your inbox. But I think you’ll enjoy your visit here; I’ve tried to include lots of inspiration and designer details in our Christmas decor.

And when you’re finished here, there’s more to see from my fellow bloggers in the A Merry Little Christmas Blog Hop.

Let’s start the tour on the front porch, one of my favorite spaces to decorate. I shared a full tour of the porch last week, so I won’t repeat myself too much.

I used lots of vintage finds on the porch, things I’ve been collecting through the years from yard sales, antique stores and from family. I used lots of chalkboard elements on the front porch, punctuated with pops of red. If you look closely, you’ll notice some plaid and buffalo check and vintage fabric patterns on the porch.

Let’s step inside the foyer, where there’s another vintage painted buffet, this one in dusky duck egg blue.

The dining room tree is decorated in mostly vintage Shiny-Brite ornaments. To coordinate with the pink and green Christmas three, I created a centerpiece on the dining room table using glittery cardboard houses and bottle brush trees.

Look more closely at the white Christmas tree, and you’ll find some plaid there, too. Serendipitously, I kept finding plaid elements to use in every room as I dug through my Christmas storage boxes. It is filled with ornaments that have sentimental value, including ones we’ve bought on our travels. So every year, I try out a different topper, using floral picks, ribbon, glitter tape and whatever else strikes my fancy.

Year round, our living room has a vintage-modern, eclectic vibe with lots of color, pattern and gold and brass accents. This little fellow sits atop my faux agate side table in front of the broken armoire doors I painted.

I’m just dying over these rhinestone dogwood blossoms I found at a local home decor shop. I have hung this magnolia wreath with the olive buffalo check ribbon on these armoire doors before.

The “bones” are the same every year — ribbon and champagne garland — though I do change up what I nestle in the branches. There’s more gold on top of the armoire — a pretty lighted garland decorated with beaded orbs, hydrangeas and more deer standing sentry.

We’ll turn the corner now to head into the breakfast nook, kitchen and keeping room area, where our family spends the bulk of our time. I’m really excited to show you this space because I’ve made some changes in here since the last time we toured.

I also replaced the worn-out rug that had been under the kitchen table with a pretty gray-and-white Moroccan quatrefoil one. From the toy truck on the fireplace to the bottle brush tree on the empire sideboard.

An oversized chalkboard print from Dear Lillie is perfect seasonal art.

I’m wishing you a very Merry Christmas, full of joy, wonder, light and love.
