I only added a few holiday touches in my favorite room. You probably thought the sun room was my favorite. It is where I hang out the most, but I love the feeling of this room and the smell of the old leather books. This room is filled with all the things I love such as dogs, horses, antlers, pillows, gingham, red and the books. This room is smaller and just has a cozier feel than other rooms in the house.
I filled my large silver tray with my moss covered deer that I made last year and pine cones.
I also added the old tusk horn, or whatever it is to the vignette.
I tucked a pine branch, pine cone and ornament in the black loving cup.
Here are the riding boots that I filled with greenery and pearls.
My bookcase has finally gotten filled with vintage leather books.
The only thing I added was a few ornaments to the silver bowl.
After taking the other pictures I tucked in some greenery here.
The WINNER of the Verbena Cottage giveaway using random.org is #15 Coastal Cottage Dreams.
For those who are going to be away from the blog world tomorrow may you have a wonderful weekend and a very Merry Christmas!!

I love this room...so warm and inviting. I'm away for a few more days with my daughter, but wanted to stop and wish you and your family a wonderful holiday!
Kim- It looks great. I love the feel of a smaller room sometimes, too. It just makes you feel secure and comforted somehow. You did a great job and I still love those boots as well as anything I have seen anywhere. Hope you aren't too rushed yet- xo Diana
This is such a warm and cozy room, Kim! I think with the red furniture you are ahead of the game with the decorating anyway!
Beautifully done, just beautiful. Loved the riding boots....wish I hadn't given mine away now, really cute idea!
Your home is so pretty and festive!
Thank you for sharing at Potpourri Friday! Have a very Merry Christmas and wonderful Holiday Season!
It all looks so cozy and elegant!
It is such a cozy room - I can see why you like it. I have to say, I'm amazed the moss stayed green on your deer. I assumed you would have to re-do it.
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
It's all beautiful, Kimmie!
I love your sitting room.
Be a sweetie,

Thank you so much, Linda. That is very sweet of you. So glad you are reading my blog.
I so agree with Linda in AZ. Your blog is truly wonderful. A delight to come to. This room is my type of room. I love everything about it. I could make myself right at home here. Being a new blogger I still have so much to see on your blog but every past post I go to is ever welcoming.
