Christmas greetings from my house to yours! I’ve teamed up with a handful of bloggers this week, we’re sharing pictures of our homes decorated for the holidays.
Other than the birch trees mentioned here, I didn’t buy any new holiday decor this year. I’ve reached that saturation point where I have enough stuff and don’t want to accumulate anymore so I just reuse what I already have, in new ways. I pulled out old favorites from the bins in storage and scattered them around the house.
I ran into a friend at a holiday gathering last weekend, he’s a florist and I asked him to get several bunches of eucalyptus for me when he went to the flower market in San Francisco. He obliged and a few days later I had so much of it I could layer it everywhere. So in additional to traditional fir and cedar, fresh eucalyptus also makes an appearance in my simple and natural approach to decorating this season.
Welcome to another holiday tour of my home where I’ve decked the halls with fresh greenery, simple ribbons, and a few sparkly things too.
Don’t miss these other home tours from my fellow bloggers!

Incorporating greenery with Christmas decoration looks really pretty. It gives such a positivity and uplifting mood to the entire interior.

Oh wow so kind my friend, thank you!!
Beautiful decor! Where did you get the painting over your fireplace?
Found it at a vintage store, it fits the space perfectly and reminds me of the local Bodega Headlands on our Northern California coast. :)
