Entry Hall ~ The Woodland Tree

One of the fun things about decorating for Christmas is combining all of your decorations in new ways. Everything you see here I already had but I have never put them together in this way before. Thus I present to you...drum roll!...the Woodland Tree

This picture of Santa is a print from a cover of Coutry Living, they offered them for sale one year and I couldn't pass it up. The framing wasn't cheap but it was worth every penny. He usually goes in my kitchen, but not this year. I kind of figure that Santa and deer go together.....hummmm, I wonder why.





The little birds used to go outside on a tree on the front porch, but this year I decided to bring them in where it was warm and cozy!








I bought these Fritz and Floyd deer at Marshalls several years apart, first the standing deer, then a couple of years later they had the kneeling deer, you can imagine how thrilled I was to complete the pair; I think they are so elegant. I usually put them on the dining room table, but I really like them in this setting.





 The package - well there needs to be a package under every Christmas tree.






Here it is all together, I hope you like it. C'est joli, n'est-ce pas.

  7. oh that is so beautiful you did a wonderful job!! love the bird and the reindeer. The print looks wonderful as well. When I worked before I had my children I was the manager of Northern Reflecitons clothing store up in Alaska and my favorite thing to do was displays I loved setting them up. I often got to do the front window. ~Enjoyed your post Love Heather

  9. Lovely decoration! We don't have a tree yet (we still aren't quite used to get the tree so early), but I pulled out the boxes from the garage that hold all of our German decorations. My daughter has been busy putting up the Christmas village, our American part of the decoration. Hope to post pictures when all of it will be done.

  15. Oh my goodness how delicious, your Christmas decorations are like going into a beautiful little winter wonderland boutique! I'm also a major fan of your new blog header pics and the Dorothy Parker quote-that woman has some of the wittiest humorous quotes :)

  16. You and your daughter have such parallel yet different styles- it's like two versions of the same thing! Which is delightful! I like your more elegant version as well, and your reindeer...well if those are ever missing, I'm your prime suspect.

  22. So very beautiful, Adrienne. I have two small Fitz and Floyd Deer. I think I'll work with them, in the living room.
    Inspiring post!

  23. Adrienne... my eye just landed on your pair of Fritz and Floyd deer! So beautiful! I love the way you designed your entry table. You get wonderful lighting there. The little birdies look totally at home on the tree! Just lovely! I spent some time going through some of your older posts!! Love your French door design! Also that photo of the stairway leading down to your basement...I don't think I would have been brave enough to go down there!! LOL! Your right about basements being rare in Southern California homes. You only find them in the older beautiful homes from days gone by! You mentioned the Arbors in your profile...is that somewhere near Pasadena? Just wondering!! Hugs!

  24. Not only do I adore that Santa print, but that tree is right up my ally! I'm on a bird kick lately. :-)

    I love your blog and I think your new collage banner looks great! My whole blog is being worked on right now so I totally understand your frustration when you can't make the changes yourself. Thanks for following my blog! I'm you're newest follower.

  28. Absolutely beautiful! Your woodland vignette is stunning. Ahhh, but what will you use in the places where you "borrowed" these components?

    Thanks for linking to my party. I look forward to seeing what you link up each week.
