Home for the Holidays 2009

A

ll across blogland last year, there were parties where we were all linking up and showing off our homes all decorated in Christmas finery.  I did one at the last minute last year, but decided this year to just go for it and officially announce it.  So as I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, here it is!  Since I’m all about decorating and all, I thought that would be fitting.

<a href="https://southernhospitalityblog.com/"><img src="https://southernhospitalityblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/homefortheholidayscopy2.png"></a>

So, please join me on December 10th for a linky party and plan to share a tour of your home with all of us. Get your post ready and we’ll all have some fun looking at everyone’s homes decked out for the Holidays, 2009 style.  Spread the word and please take my button!

I know of at least 3 other Christmas tours that have been announced:  The Nester, Hooked on Houses, and Kelly’s Korner, so there’s no reason not to join them all, just be sure to add the appropriate buttons and links on your blog post, so that all will be included.  Our dates are all a little different, but it will be easy to jump into all of them.

I’d LOVE to have you join me too even if you are participating in the others!

    A tour of Mod Podge Command Central would be one picture, b/c it’s so small . . . but I can’t wait to see this linky party and what everyone else comes up with! Yay!

    I’ve grabbed your button, Rhoda! I’m looking forward to this ~ especially after snagging two pre-lit little trees in urns at Goodwill. I’m itching to get my decorations out and getting started, but I won’t. I’m looking foward to all the link-ups!

    Maybe this will inspire me to decorate my house this year for Christmas. After Amber’s passing I have been wondering if I should carry on my usual “Christmas Explosion” as my Jennifer calls it. Amber loved Christmas and all the Christmas decorations. We usually have a tree in every room. I WILL decorate her tree that she always had in her room. If I decorate as usual I would love to participate.
    I am hoping the Christmas Open House on Nov. 10th inspires me more!
    Blessings,
    Donna

    Hmm, I tried adding your button to my blog, but it’s not showing up. Are you sure the html is correct?

    If you saved the button code & it didn’t work, try it again. We tweaked the code & it worked fine for me now.

    Thanks so much! Hope to see you all at the party.

    It’s so hard to believe it’s getting close to the Christmas season! I just can’t go there yet, though – so so so much to do between now and then. EEP!
