Definitely ♥-ing all the plaid AND your paper-glitter-glue projects, too!
ReplyDeleteIt's about time for my personal motivation to kick in! Here's hoping...
Oh, how inviting! Such a sweet vignette and are those square marshmallows? Don't know why I mentioned them of all things considering you have so many pretty touches there...maybe because at the store today I saw a bag of them and each one must have been at least 4"...the biggest I've ever seen! Would make for great Smores!
ReplyDeleteVery inviting Alison! I love all that red plaid and the beautiful greenery arrangement in the boot! Love the skates too! Have great weekend, Martina
ReplyDeleteWonderful outdoor vignette, Alison!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the
ReplyDeletelovely little respite

weather. Stay cozy!

Alison! You did such a beautiful job!! Are you sure you are not one of Santas helpers??? Love love love it, its so inviting, elegant and charming...well done!
ReplyDeleteall your plaid just looks wonderful. Now i am hungry for a cookie!
ReplyDeleteAlison,
ReplyDeleteI love all of your plaid items! And that arrangement in that boot is gorgeous. Your porch would be a perfect place for some hot chocolate, as long as I got those big, honking marshmallows in my cup.
So cute. I too have incorporated a throw into my back porch scheme, but unfortunately I couldn't find a good holiday plaid - very jealous of yours! Looks beautiful. And we woke up to snow this morning - I bet it looks lovely. Liz
ReplyDeleteCute as can be, Alison! I wish we were closer, as I would be right over for some yummy cocoa and cookies!
ReplyDeleteI could just imagine sitting there drinking hot cocoa after a day of ice skaing, Alison!
ReplyDeleteHey friend... loving all your plaid! So perfect this time of year!! You really shouldn't tease with the cookies though. I might actually turn up on your porch :)
ReplyDeleteAwe, you couldn't get rid of me if I lived closer to you! You are really making me wish I had been buying all of the plaid things I have been passing up! Going to browse around over here for a while. I have had so much fun playing around in blogland this past week. Stop by when you get a minute and look at my bedroom mantle, I actually thought of you when I did it.
ReplyDeleteOh wait, I got to yapping like I so often do and forgot to tell you that I love the white ice skates!
ReplyDeleteMerci for the hot chocolate and gingerbread men... love all of your pretty plaid, one of my favorites always and especially at Christmas time... everything looks so cosy and inviting... how I would love to visit the Polohouse in person!... xoxo Julie Marie
ReplyDeleteWow! Another amazing post. All the plaids are just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love the use of ice skates in decorating for the holidays.. and that santa boot is adorable!...
ReplyDeleteSo pretty makes me wanting to go grab some cocoa. Looks so inviting and cozy.
ReplyDeleteI am mad for your plaid. I passed up an old set of plaid thermos bottles and am now kicking myself.
ReplyDeleteAlison I am so sorry I have not been over. It's so hard to get around to everyone... Love all your Christmas Decorations... Happy Holidays to you and your family

I love the tartan! Looks like the perfect place for a cup of cocoa...
ReplyDeleteLooks like Christmas to me. Richard from My Old Historic House.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are so appealing to me. Just love it all. I do believe I have those same mugs. I found them with a little plaid coffee pot to go with them. :)
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I would love to join you for a cup of hot cocoa in this setting!

I love your vignette, Alison...all the plaid and coziness! I just picked up another pair of white skates, just because of their cute gingham lining!
ReplyDeleteThought I left you another comment but don't see it! Sorry if it shows up..don't mean to pester you! ;) I sent you an email asking if you could tell me the name of the artist who sang Tennessee Waltz you had on your blog awhile back. Thought my husband would maybe like that for his bd.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Donna
Your blog is delightful! I'm putting it on my favorites list! Happy holidays! ♥
ReplyDeleteEverything looks like a story book-

It looks like you are all set for the season.
