Jolly inspiration....

It's Black Friday and I am debating about whether or not I want to journey out into the chaos. Did you go shopping? What I really want to do is pull down all of our decorations from our attic and get my Christmas on. I was looking through some inspiration photos and thought I would share some with you.

I haven't been out shopping today and I won't be going. Just don't have the money. :( I love all of these lovely inspiration photos. That's what I've doing today, looking at pretty inspiration pics. I can't wait to get started decorating.

Hi Jen:
I LOVE these images! My idea of Christmas in Florida...not all the heavy red and green of my Wisconsin childhood. I add seashells and starfish, too.

I NEVER, EVER go out on Black Friday. I decided years ago that I would avoid it, and avoid the frenzied holiday shoppers. I make most of our gifts now, and anything else I need I get online. I was out on Tuesday running errands and was face-to-face with my first (and last) rude shopper of the season.

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving, and a that a restful weekend is in your future.
xoxo

No shopping for me today!!
I did take my daughter a Starbucks because she has been working at the Mall since midnight!!
I love these images...I am thinking real simple this year and maybe using my mercury glass..natural elements and vintage whites.
Blessings Girly!

No Black Friday for me, I'm a stay at home and avoid the madness sort of gal.

Beautiful pics, I vote for decorating!

We don't have Black Friday here in Canada... but we live near the border and some venture over the river to shop the sales. Personally, I think it's madness, but I think I'd be crazy enough to be tempted to go out one year just for the heck of it.

I love the paper wrappings in one of the photos and all the different branch ideas. I used something similar as a display for a show (with handmade ornaments) a while ago and I got so many compliments about it!

I didn't venture out for Black Friday, instead using the day to look at beautiful photos like the ones you posted!

thanks for the photos. I loved the tree design. I am thinking going all natural this year - dry fruit, home made gingerbread cookies and cinnamon sticks. For the first time we will make the cranberry/popcorn chain ;-)
