The lighted wall hanging was new this year.

Most of this I had, plate from GW & cup & saucer a gift from a friend.

Now with lighted wall hanging.

Chose my obsession ( Univ. Of Illinois Basketball) for my table, I keep finding new items for it each year.

Can't ever go wrong with cardinals!! That lighted wall hanging is VERY pretty! I hadn't seen one before! But I have to say, your sport's themed tray REALLY got my attention! My son, Jason, is totally obsessed with Bama football and I usually try to get him ornaments and such
for their tree. I even made him a wreath with a lot on it.
But this tray vignette is a GREAT idea, and I'm saving it on my Christmas Plans list for next time. Thank You!!!

Oh your red decor is so pretty ... the dishes, cardinals & esp like how you 'lit it up.' Are those timer tea candles under the fluff? Pretty white runner, too.

Those 'lit' wall pictures are quite something, aren't they... yours is sure pretty in blues! Love the scene!

We're both U of I fans, yachter ... ohhh, whoops, I'm U of Iowa ... sorry .... but I do love your table centerpc ... cute as can be! TFSharing ~~Jeanne

Wow! I love everything
Your mantel is so pretty, both in daylight and lit for evening.
The lighted wall hanging is lovely it has such a serene quality and looks warm and welcoming.
The centerpiece is fun!!I love the team ornaments.
Thank you Yachter, I really enjoyed seeing this.

Karen, one of my best friends lives in Alabama & is crazy for BAMA football too! The trays are so easy, keeps everything together & easy to move if you need to for space or to dust. I hadn't even realized how much I use them now for decorating. LOL That would be a great idea to do a BAMA tray for your son, he'd be really thrilled I think.

Jeanne, I remember you were an Iowa fan, well we're fierce rivals in basketball but that's ok! Iowa has gotten better every year since Fran came in as their coach. Illinois has been struggling since coach Weber & now that he's gone, we're still trying to rebuild the program!

This year I found a little sled ornie with Illinois on it & a different ornament on clearance, so I may need a bigger tray for next year.

I still do garage sales when my old sore back allows so I will be busy next spring now that I have some room for new decor.

So great to see you sharing pics with us Yachter. Cardinals are always so pretty, and I love how you were able to light it all up. You have such a pretty fireplace too.

I'm really liking the idea of using trays too. Like you said it makes it so easy to move out of the way.

The lighted picture is really neat too, could easily just sit and stare at that for awhile. :o)

Hi Luvs, I'm glad to see you here posting pictures of your decor. I used to check in once in a while but had no way to post pics, so I'd just try to check on everyone & I knew you just weren't up to it for quite a while. I see you've got a neighbor who's keeping you supplied with goodies. I'm sure that helps give you the inspiration to make use of new finds.

Thanks Nana for the compliment. I'm really glad to see how easy it is to post pictures & participate again.

Smiling, yachter! You remembered! Go Hawks! ohhhh...okay...go Fightin' Illini ! ;-) ~Jeanne

Beautiful Christmas decor Yachter! Love your new wall hanging!
The mantel is gorgeous and I love the picture with it lit up! Your
table decor makes me Smile!
