When I got married, Christmas had to be red and green. Not gold or silver . And none of that burgundy that the victorian decorators like. Christmas red and green. Somewhere, somehow, every so slowly , I stepped off the Polar Express . First, I allowed burgundy....went better with the decor , I told myself. Then some gold and silver for sparkle...silver bells afterall! Now it's fullblown pink and aqua. You won't see green except for the tree . And Santa....well he's wearing a very fashionable... ok , girly...PINK! My family tolerates it. My extended family doesn't get it I'm sure. But I'm dreaming of a pink Christmas as many of you are. So here are some things I've been working on with a frenzy that suits the season. Which reminds me, when did a time of calm and quiet, silent nights, become a stampede equal to the running with the bulls?? Well, that's another post.

Well, I think you get the 'most pink decor' award with that santa ;-) Can't wait to see the whole shebang! I know I'm so excited to change over in the color scheme this year that I'll probably be one of those people on the tree lot the day after thanksgiving! :-)
Your Christmas items are gorgeous Karen!! I will be buying :)

Love your pink Santa, but when it comes to Christmas, I have to go with traditional red and green. I have too many "traditional" colored decorations to start over as much as I would like to. Thanks for visiting my blog. Will post my Giveaway on Sunday, so come back and take a look.
