I love decorating our home for Christmas. Every year I do things slightly differently. You may recognize some of the decorations from last year or the year before, but I also bought some new things from Michael’s store and Pottery Barn. This year I went with a mostly white wintry theme. I arranged some faux branches to make this arrangement. It took me three attempts before I was sort of happy with it.
