Christmas Putz Houses

 via

Just sharing a few pretty putz houses from my Christmas Putz House Pinterest Board today.

I got all of mine out last night. I have a new church that was given me last year for Christmas.

So excited to set it up.

I finished decorating my tree last night and almost finished the mantel.

Now I have to pull the room back together and put all those tubs away.

Yuck...I hate that part and the last two hours I was decorating I was being barked at constantly

by Harvey.

He had had enough of me being in another room.

I wasn't letting him and Franklin in because they'd get into everything.

Although they both did come in the night I took all the lights off the tree and 

put new lights on.

It was very sweet. They laid next to me on the ottoman while I cursed the tree.

They were very sympathetic to my ordeal.

Once I finally got the tree lit they jumped off the ottoman and started running all over the room.

I guess they sensed my relief that the job was done.

They also seemed pretty impressed with all the lights. They stared and stared at the tree.

So I know they were wanting in again last night but I was too busy and there was too much stuff everywhere to let them in.

This made Harvey mad! 

His barks were getting louder and louder and more insistent. 

He tried to break down the baby gate several times but I had it rigged where he couldn't.

I have to say since Harvey has lost weight...he has become much more bossy.

And he gets into things more.

I'm almost tempted to fatten him up again.

Not really...but he gets in to trouble now where he used to not because all he did was lie around.

Ok, back to Christmas....

My dining room still has to be decorated.

I'm not very excited about it since I did not get the dining room repainted, yet.

But oh...I am loving the color of my living room now.

It looks so good with all my Christmas stuff. It looks good with everything.

You'll see.

I went to take photos tonight and found my camera dead and I was out of batteries.

Bad Blogger... Yep, that's me.

So tomorrow I'll take some photos.

I've just about missed all the Christmas home tour link ups.

Yet, again.

I just can't seem to get my act together. 

I did get the garage door to close today.

I'd had to leave it open an inch the other day when it quit on me but

it still won't open.

It stops at about three inches off the ground.

So I'm afraid the outside of my house looks pretty lame.

I did put out some red lanterns I filled with white lights but 

I couldn't get all my greenery out of the garage to do the job right on the porch.

There is always next year...right? 

I did make some new vintage looking bottle brush trees the other night and 

you'll see them as part of my mantel.

Let's just pretend I have two weeks still before Christmas instead of just a few days.
There....I feel better.

Last night I was just decorating to my heart's delight and listening to my favorite Christmas music
and trying not to think about how this all should have been done two weeks ago.
