BUT...since I do have kids I've noticed my approach to holiday decorating has included a bit more craftiness. I swore I would never get all crafty but there is something about kids that has made me want to do just that.
First off here is my favorite decoration. This decoration moves all around the house & never stays where I put her. She's one of the faves for sure....very festive.
This year we thrifted & hand made many of the decorations. The banner was old books spray painted with chalkboard paint & then hung over trim. Bring on the holidays I say.

ooh this makes me so happy and ready for fall!
looks smashing!
I, for one, like the 2nd display far better than the first. And this is not "crafty" in the real sense of the word ie- my grandmothers toll painted BOO in bright orange with raffia and glitter coming out every corner. No, no, no... this is style, skill and adorable-ness :) Good job, you inspire...
incredible decor! oh this makes me want to put up my stuff so bad! i've lacked the time and energy to be crafty lately... i don't know how you do it, especially with 5 kids! so fab!
