A Canadian Christmas

White Christmas

Ok, so I thought I'd be posting my mantel by now. 

But I just couldn't bring myself to pull out my glittery trees when I'm in the 

middle of sanding my dining room furniture in the dining room.

Plus I don't think it's a good idea to mix dust with glitter.

So I told myself...I'd finish up the sanding part and then I'll decorate my mantel.

And then I'll paint the furniture.

So in the meantime...

enjoy these Christmas visions from

The common denominator here is white.

Which is the color I am painting my dining room furniture 

or what color I will paint it once it is all sanded.

Martha Stewart - Popcorn to be exact.

 It will look a little like this.

I just have three more chairs to do...

and then I'll vacuum and clean up 

and then do the mantel.

I usually don't decorate till mid December but because of the blog...I thought I'd do early

but I'm too much in the middle of my dining room project.

I've heard that more dining room furniture is sold at the holidays than all the rest

of the year put together because everyone wants their dining room pulled together 

for guests and family. 

I guess I'm no better.

I should have knocked it out last month...but of course I procrastinated...

but the important part is - that I am doing now.
