Sweet & Simple Decorating

 
The older I get, the more I want simple when it comes to Christmas decorating.  I've come to the conclusion it's because of having to drag everything down from upstairs and the uncomfortable position of bending over in the attic that hurts my back.  At least I hope that's all it is and that I'm not becoming a Scrooge.
I found these lovely live green wreaths at Home Depot over Black Friday weekend for only $5 and I want to fill my house with them.  Their fragrance is simply divine.
 
 
 
This one is hanging over my bedroom dresser on vintage window frames and adorned with my "LOVE" needlework and two distressed Christmas trees.
 
 
This is my kind of decorating ~ sweet & simple.

    Cindy, your simple seasonal decorating is, indeed, sweet as well as charming! I completely agree with you, the older I get, the more I want to do 'less'! And yes, it is for the same reason. I doubt you could ever identify with Scrooge!

    Have a lovely week!
