Decorating for Christmas: Lots of Tartan in the House!

When I learned recently that Alison at The Polohouse was featuring Christmas decorating with plaids and tartans at her  "Favorites on the First" linky party, I knew that I just had to join in.  While these images are from Christmases past, we all know that tartans and plaids are timeless.  

The above image of the deer is on my Welsh dresser.  I have several posts on acquiring my dresser, but I'm having trouble with broken links.  Will try to fix it later.  Here are a few more photos of my dresser, all ready for Christmas:

 The following is a knock-off of Alison's SNOW GLOBE:

My front door is ready to go:

While not specifically tartan, here are the Christmas stockings that I spent YEARS making!

I'm so happy that I'm going to be starting a new one soon for our first precious little GRANDBABY!

Here's a wonderful nutcracker from MacKenzie-Childs that I'm getting ready to attempt to knock-off.  Because the M-C nutcracker is priced at $395.00, I'm hoping I can save a few pennies if I do my own:

I've been adding to my tartan ware collection and know it will fit in perfectly somewhere in my house:

And lastly, since I've gotten slightly off-track anyway, I'd like to show you my latest pair of tartan shoes:

Thanks to Sarah at HYACINTHS FOR THE SOUL for giving me a heads up about these shows on the Saks website.  Love 'em!
