Now that we’ve covered the entry–we’ll move on to the back wall of the living room. It’s the entertainment center. It used to have a TV in it in the old house–but not in this one. But it’s fun to decorate year after year!

I have different collections on the shelves. Whether it be Santa, Snowmen, Reindeer & Tin Soldiers, to Angel Teddy Bears–the bottom shelf is where we hang the stockings. Mostly because they fit there just fine. But in the last house we didn’t have a mantle to hang them by–and this year we do, but it’s in the family room–far far away from the Christmas tree. So this little tradition stuck around! Up top is garland–and some more of my Santas and Christmas trees.
