I love your view of the snow outside. Especially since it was 93 degrees here today.

I can imagine sitting in the sun room and enjoying the view, inside and out.. Thank you for sharing...really looks like a room from a decorating mag.

Thanks for posting.

I agree!! it looks like it came out of a decorating magazine (except warmer and friendlier) I love Christmas and decorating for it too.

I'm a place mat person, and that's the first thing I noticed in Picture #1 on the sun porch - not much sun there, but I loved them place mats. Gave me a wonderful idea. Thanks for sharing the pictures of your beautiful home.

The pictures are great. Like others, my eye was caught by the placemats. Did you make those as well? We were out of town over Christmas so did very minimal decorating... one small tree in the living room and it is still up. Reminded me of my mother's decorating. She loved Christmas and the decorating. She was known as the Christmas Lady at the hospital she worked at because for nearly 30 years she was in charge of the decorating. She also had a tree in her basement that stayed up all year long, just got covered in a plastic bag! Happy New Year everyone!

I love the veiw from you windows! I'm from Wisconsin and normaly it would look just like that outside, but we've been having a mild year. I think we probally only had 2 inchs of snow this season, and most of it is all melted.
