Christmas in the Kitchen, Vignettes, 2019


  Welcome to my Christmas Blog, A Debbie-Dabble Christmas!!
I am so happy that you decided to stop by my Christmas Blog....

In my last post, I shared the Tree and Hutch in my Kitchen all decked out in a Candy and Gingerbread theme for Christmas.....
 Click HERE if you missed that post.....

Today, I will be sharing the rest of the Kitchen decorated for Christmas....

This room took me 4 days to decorate this year....

That was one day of taking down and packing away the Fall/Halloween decorations and cleaning the Kitchen......

It took so long to decorate because I did pass some things on to family last year and bought a few new things which lead me to rearrange a lot of things, changing up where I have usually displayed things for years.....

Now that I am retired, I have the time to do so and loved it....
 
And it is the room in which I made the decision to be true to myself and not try to incorporate what is the "New Style" for this Christmas....

So I returned to my roots, so to speak, and decorated the Kitchen in a Candy and Gingerbread theme like I originally did so many years before......

We will start where I left off in my last post.....

Wreath Re-Do, Dabbling and Sneak Peaks!!


Welcome to my Christmas Blog, A Debbie-Dabble Christmas!!
I am so happy that you decided to stop by my Christmas Blog....

Today, I will be taking a break from My Christmas Home Tour.....

I know that I promised to share the upstairs Sitting Room today but that will be my next post....

Truth be told, I can not get in there to take the pictures for the post right now.....

When I bring everything down from the attic for a particular room, it goes in the Sitting Room, then downstairs and then back up to the sitting room until I can get it up the attic so right now, all the Dining Room tubs are in there.....

So I decided to share a few things that I have been dabbling with.....

Christmas in the Craft Room, 2019



   Welcome to my Christmas Blog, A Debbie-Dabble Christmas!!
I am so happy that you decided to stop by my Christmas Blog....

Today, I am sharing the Christmas decorations in the Craft Room......

But first, I want to Thank Barb, over at French Ethereal, for featuring my post, Late Fall Front Porch and Yard Update over on my regular Blog, Debbie-Dabble Blog, from last week's Share Your Style Link Party!
 Thanks so much, Barb!!!

Please stop by and link up to this lovely party!!

I decorate every room in our townhouse for Christmas pretty much according to the color of each room, which is different for every room, and in a different theme in each room......

So I am not really able to exchange decorations between rooms, changing up my Christmas Decor on a yearly basis like a lot of other Bloggers do.....

I do try to change things up here and there and as I pass things on to family, I have bought a few new things but to me, My Christmas decorations are like Old Friends that I have not seen in some time.....

Many were gifted to me by family and friends or were something that caught my eye that enabled me to recall a wonderful memory from my childhood......

So I do not change themes or follow what the newest trend is....

I admit that I did fall for that mind set in the Kitchen for the past few years, trying to incorporate the burlap, then chalkboard and the Farmhouse red truck craze that finally started to take hold here last year even though it had been big for a few years throughout the country.....

In a later post, you will see in the Kitchen that I went back to my roots and decorated solely in a candy, gingerbread and cookie theme and also changed up quite a bit of things.......

But for today, we will take a look in my Craft Room........

Without buying anything new, I did change up a few displays.......
