Holiday Sun Room 2011

The sun room is where I spend most of my time and where I blog on my laptop. I added just a few things to fill it with Christmas cheer. Get comfy and grab a drink and a snack because there are lots of pictures.




I covered the round bamboo table with a piece of red burlap that I had and then placed a tree in my vintage orchard basket filled with ornaments. Collection of vintage bottles and some cardinals sitting on a branch finish the look.

Attached this little red bird to the top of the basket.


I found this top hat a few years ago and thought I would use it as a tree topper.





I filled this old coke crate with snow, trees, and a deer.





Small nutcracker collection set on top of the t.v. cabinet.








One more week!! Are you ready?

Have a super duper week!

Love that you used red burlap as your table topper, Kim! It really brings that corner to life along with your tree. Love the tophat. I was looking at them myself this year, but remembered I had a small crown I could use on one of my small trees. Maybe I'll pick one up at the after Christmas sales.

Andrea said...

your sunroom is one of my favorite rooms in your house (wait a minute, I love all the rooms in your house =). It looks wonderful decked out for Christmas! ps that little foot stool is exactly like a project I'm working on for my sunroom.

Babs said...

Darling sun room. All your touches are so cheerful. I remember the top hat from the first post I ever saw of yours on BNOTP
I like your deer in the coke crate too and I LOVE the yellow lamp behind the nutcrackers.

Sarah said...

Kim, every room in your home oozes charm. Your holiday touches to the sun room are definitely cheerful. Love the sweet needlepoint pillow. I wanted to add a top hat to our tree this year, but never got around to getting one. Yours looks darling! ~ Sarah

Pondside said...

As you know, Kim, this is my favorite room in your house. I love what you've done for Christmas. If it were mine, it's where I'd spend most of my time!

LL from KS said...

I love your sunroom! I have one too, but here in Kansas I can't use it at all during the winter months! It's way too cold. I love the top hat on your tree and I love the little deer and tree in your coke crate! I wish I would have thought to use mine like that. I'll have to file that idea away for next year!

LL from KS said...

I forgot to ask where you got the red plaid pillows. I looked all over for some this year and couldn't find any!

French Kissed said...

Hats off to you for thinking to put that top hat on the tree...gives the tree such personality...also really like the coca-cola crate vignette.

Linda (Nina's Nest) said...

Kim, it all looks wonderful, but my favs are the basket that the tree sits in, the decorated coke crate, and the way everything is already in red and green so that you can add Christmas pillows to existing decor. I'd be in that room all.the.time! Lind
