Enjoy a candlelit tour of a home filled with elegant Christmas decor ideas featuring neutral colors so the greenery takes center stage.
These past few months have been so full of ideas and inspiration for Christmas here on Simply2Moms.
The time has truly flown by.
I sure wish November and December would pass more slowly since they’re my favorite time of year!
Sometimes I have to take matters into my own hands to slow. things. down.
To reflect.
To enjoy the beauty of the season.
And to remember why I celebrate Christmas.
AnnMarie and I are going to press pause and do just that while we spend time with our families.
But before we do, we’ve got just a bit more inspiration for you.
Step inside our homes, lit by twinkle lights and candles.
We’ve joined some of our best blogging friends to share candlelight tours with you and you’ll find links to their tours at the end of this post.
If you’re visiting from our friend Melanie’s home down in Texas, welcome! Wasn’t her home lovely for Christmas? I love the meaning behind cardinals, especially during the holidays.
Today, I’m sharing my home (this is Anne), and tomorrow you’re invited to visit AnnMarie’s.
So grab a cup of your favorite Christmas beverage and may the words of one of my favorite Christmas hymns fill your heart with joy.
Elegant Christmas Decorating Ideas by Candlelight
O Holy Night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
‘Til he appears and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees;
Oh hear the angel voices
O night divine, Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night, Oh Holy night, Oh night divine!
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise men from Orient land
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend
He knows our need
To our weakness is no stranger
Behold your King;
Before Him lowly bend
Behold your King;
Before Him lowly bend.
Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother.
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord; Oh
Praise His name forever!
His power and glory
Evermore proclaim
His power and glory, evermore proclaim.
Fall on your knees;
Oh hear the angel voices!
Oh night divine, Oh night
When Christ was born,
Oh night,
O Holy night,
Oh night
O night divine!
May your heart be filled with the true meaning of Christmas today and all year through.
Next up on our tour is our friend Jen who’s lucky enough to often have beautiful white Christmases thanks to living in New Hampshire. Wait until you see how she decorated with this in mind inside her home too.
