I don’t know about you, but it seems like the weeks are flying by!

I can’t believe we are already into November and Thanksgiving is right around the corner.

If you are new here, welcome.

Saturday Morning Gather is my weekly newsletter where I share what is going on at Vintage Home and also share inspiration and things I have found during the week that I think you might enjoy.

If you’ve been around a while, as always, I am so grateful to you! I truly appreciate you showing up and continuing to support my blog.

Gather round and grab your coffee or favorite morning drink of choice and let’s take a look at what’s been happening this week.

what’s been going on….

I shared, in Saturday Morning Gather last week, everything going on with our move and our current house situation.

If you missed it, and want to catch up, it is the last post on the blog.

Since this will be the first Christmas in this house, I am trying to plan how to decorate a new space that doesn’t have a lot of areas for decor.

I don’t have built-ins, bookcases, etc., so it is a bit of a challenge.

I’m trying to get creative and also avoid digging through the storage unit to pull out all of my Christmas decor.

I am going to unearth the flocked tree I got from King of Christmas last year, and maybe some greenery, but other than that I am making some new ornaments and buying very inexpensive ornaments to add this year.

I shared post a few weeks ago about making sugared fruit ornaments, so I will be adding those to the tree this year.

Three decorative pears with a textured, frosty finish, each tied with a striped ribbon bow on a white tray.



I also made some sugared fruit stems to add to the fruit ornaments and love how they turned out.

A white ceramic pitcher with brown floral designs, filled with artificial branches bearing frosted red pomegranates.



Since I added some color to the decor in this house, I am using some color in my Christmas decor, as well.

A sage green and berry red are the main colors I am going with this year.

coming up next…

For the next few weeks, I am planning to share some holiday ideas with you including some shopping guides to help with everyone on your Christmas list.

Some DIY’s, holiday tablescape ideas, recipes and holiday decorating tips will be included, as well.

I hope you will follow along, and feel free to comment back with any questions. 

holiday decor tip…

Have you ever forced paperwhite bulbs for the holidays?

It is a great way to add some beautiful blooms during the holiday season and they also make a great gift.

Look for some interesting containers and take the sweetest hostess gift to any of your holiday gatherings.
