For My Mom...

... Christmas and Post Christmas decorations in my cute little hobbit hole.

For Christmas, I put the yellow accents away and added in some red and cream accents that went with my tree and nativities.

I really liked the red and cream (especially the super-silky fuzzy cream pillow), so I decided to leave them for a little while longer. I swapped the pointsettas for roses...

 ... took down the nativities and gave Toothless the glider,..

...  put away the Christmas plates and put up the new red Square we picked up this week...

 I think the non-Christmas red accents worked out really well!
