The last of the mini series hosted by Karen from Some Days are Diamonds.Imagine that I have the snow effect on. Of course, I couldn't figure out how to put it on the blog! LOL
WELCOME!
I live by the Jersey Shore, so I decorate with a Seashore theme. Aren't these Snowman lighthouse so cute.
This is the dinning room banner up the stairs, we'll come back to this room. Follow me. I don't have Zelda to help me out this time. ;o)
My Santa's. I still have other things to put out but, hopefully I will finsh up this week. LOL
Here is my seashore tree lit at night. Over 1,100 lights on this real tree! lol
The tree topper is my Santa riding his Seahorses into town.
Now, you see it in day time.
Closer look at these adorable seahorses and Santa.
Some of my ornaments.
Care for a shrimp cocktail? lol
Isn't this cute sea turtle so darling! Love her eyelashes.
My angel fish.
I love these jelly fish, too.
Holiday season, don't let it get you crabby.
Now, welcome to the kitchen. I have to say I have not completely finish decorating.... I need another 3 days! But, I have shared what I can.
What.... UPSIDE DOWN CHRISTMAS TREE????? What...
Last year after the holiday season I purchased my "Upside down Christmas Tree". When I first saw this tree I feel in love with it. We are heading back to the dinning room. This is my more playful take on Christmas.
It really allows the ornaments to take center stage. It took me a white to figure out how to decorate it. But, I think it turned out great.
I love all my ornaments with the martini glasses. Christmas time is the only I have my favorite drink~chocolate martini.
Well, I will dance my way over to visit you now. Hope, you enjoyed the tour and Thanks, Karen for another great party!
May you enjoy this Holiday Season sharing with family and friends. Wishing you all that you wish for and a Happy New Year!

WOOOOOOOOOOH, how fantastic was all of that!!!!! It must take you ages to do!!!!! Well worth it though. It is just so unique. Have a truly lovely time and don't have too many chocolate martini's. x
ReplyDeleteOH Zandra! Unique to say the least and so wonderful. Love the theme and I love the shrimp cocktail. Precious upside down tree! Have a blessed day and thanks for having me!
ReplyDeleteOkay Z...I wouldn't have expected anything less from you...this is AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteHow cute! I love all of your funny little decorations...I'd have a smile on my face all season long if that tree was planted in my home with all of those cute goodies!!!! This is the prettiest seaside tree I've ever seen...seriously!
As for your Santas...well, they are just awesome! I don't think I could leave them outside in the weather though...they are just tooooo pretty!
I just love everything...I could say this over and over!!!!
everything vintage
Shhh... I only put the Santa's out for the party! I usually have my white glitter snowmen under the trees, but didn't have enough time to get them out from the attic...LOL
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a seashore theme for Christmas, this is very special and what a wonderful collection of snowmen you have!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh ZANDRA! It is all breathtaking! Love your doors and your SANTAS! (Please tell me you bring them in!) I was laughing with each darling ornament you shared with us from your to-die-for tree. One of a kind I'm sure! It is just beautiful. My goodness! But you threw me for a loop with the upside one. You need to go into a little more detail . . . how did you DO that? I've never seen one before!
ReplyDeleteEverything is gorgeous!
I am so glad you joined in!
Have a Merry Christmas!

Zandra , I love your theme! I lived on the CT Shoreline before I moved to VT ten years ago and your theme reminded me of how much I miss the shore. Hubby keeps saying he owes me a trip to the coast but I haven't seen it yet! Wonderful Sharing! Thank you for letting me see your Christmas house. God Bless you, Meg

Zandra, I am so glad that you stopped by to visit, because it gave me the opportunity to come and see the most unique and inventive tree I have ever seen!!! I love your sea-inspired decorations- they are the most innovative and festive I have ever seen- so untraditional and just gorgeous! And for a natural tree, yours has perfect form. Haven't seen an upside down one for a few years, I remember when they were a hit a few years ago at the decorating markets where we were shopping for our store. Love the martini glasses. Geez, I just cannot say enough. Hope you'll continue to come by. Don't forget to go see my other trees in past posts....
ReplyDeleteMerry, Merry! Sue
