Christmas Home Tour | Simply Designing with Ashley

Since it is Christmas Eve, I thought I would invite everyone to see my home! I have been showing you tons of decorations that I have been making, but I wanted to show you how it all came together! I love it! This is the first year where I can say I truly LOVE all my holiday decorations! It makes me so happy!

Welcome to my front entry!

Here is a close up on my red table. (I haven't shown you my red table...it was a great project I completed but haven't shown you yet.)

Red+Table+Close | Christmas Home Tour | 25 |

The snowmen I completed this year. The glass blocks have Christmas lights in them and look amazing when lite (I made those last year). (All the tutorials are on my blog!)

Here's another shot of my front entry table. Do you love the mirror?!? $25 Craigslist find. It was an absolute STEAL! The thing ways a ton! And if you notice in the mirror reflection, my stacking gift boxes! (Tutorial is on my blog!)

Ornaments+in+Vases | Christmas Home Tour | 27 |

I love that by simply putting pretty ornaments in a vase with bow, you can instantly feel Christmas-y!

My staircase is sooooooo long. And I don't have enough garland to go up them. I also didn't want to spend that much money. But I do have a ton of ribbon! So I put ribbon up my stair railing. It is so simple but I am happy with how it turned out.

I stlil love my stacking gift box decor!

Santa+Plate | Christmas Home Tour | 30 |

I made these Santa's Cookies plate and Santa's Milk mug last year. I still love them and my daughter is excited to put them out on Christmas Eve!

Gingerbread+House | Christmas Home Tour | 31 |

Aren't you impressed with this gingerbread house?!?! I will give credit where credit is due. I didn't help too much with this. My husband completed almost the entire house and tree by himself with the help of our 4 year old daughter. I was really really good at open the bags of candy, cutting off the bottoms of the "trees" so they would stand, and supervising!

My husband did a great job, didn't he?

Our main nativity is on top of my piano. I love our nativity!

I put some more ornaments in these vases as well. I really love how they look.

My Christmas Tree. Again, I need to give credit where credit is due. I was so busy with my Nickelodeon stuff that my husband bought, and set the tree up all by himself. Isn't he awesome!!

I love my red Pottery Barn ornaments. (I got them on clearance several years for under a buck each and they are that super thick crackled glass! Love them!)

My matel! I wrapped my picture up like a gift...I think it adds a nice touch.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all, a good night!

I participate in the link parties found here.
