I'm trying to stop myself from decorating for Christmas, and then moving things around a couple of weeks later.
Let me show you the entry. Hopefully, it'll stay this way til Christmas.
Come on in and let me show you the quick pillow cover I did for the entry bench.
The large pillow was the rust color one from fall. I wanted a black velvet one, so budget friendly me, covered it with a scrap of black velvet from my fabric stash, pinned it in the back with safety pins, and tied a big tartan ribbon on it. Since no one will be sitting on it, the pins won't be seen. Shhh...don't tell.
Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your "finding" me, even though my thumbnails aren't updating.
Have a wonderful Sunday...and a great week, too.

Goodness I love that mirror you have behind your nativity set. Beautiful! Where did you find that?
Jen, Thanks for asking. I got it at QVC.

Babs, what a great idea for a pillow! The tartan plaid ribbon shows up beautifully against the black velvet. I just love tartan plaids. :)
Your nativity scene is one of the prettiest I've ever seen. The pieces are painted so beautifully, and I love your mirror backdrop -- it's GORGEOUS!!
Your entryway is all set for Christmas, and you don't need to change a thing. Thanks for sharing your inspiration with us.
Visiting from Seasonal Sundays.
Hugs to you,

You are so funny!!!! I feel ya on the pin thing. I do that on occasion. I can't sew, so pins are my friend! :-)
Very pretty decor! I have NO doubt, however, that you will be making changes throughout the season. That's just you, Babs. It's what makes you special and your home decor so pretty!
Hi Babs- I love what you came up with for the entry! Love that mirroed back drop for the nativity. I have one very similar to it except it's only 3 pieces. The pillow looks great- and no one would know any better about the pins! That's a smart way to get more mileage out of your accent pillows. I'm all for quick and easy :-) I wonder why your thumbnails aren't updating?
Love your nativity set and your bunny pillow is really cute!
Well, I would never tell -- I just think you are very clever doing a simple, temporary cover for that pillow! Your Nativity is beautiful and the new backdrop is gorgeous!
It all looks so pretty, Babs! I would never tell about the pins.... I've been known to do that myself!! The black looks stunning especially with the plaid bow. xo
I would never have known the big pillow was just tucked in. I'm so going to steal this idea!
Oh how gorgeous. I love the pillows and your Nativity is exquisite. Thanks tons for linking to Inspire Me. Hugs, Marty
GORGEOUS Babs!! I love that sweet little bunny pillow and the larger black pillow tied with the plaid ribbon...love it all!!
I absolutely adore those black velvet pillows...such a beautiful change from traditional reds...love it! I love the elegance of the velvet fabric you chose! I'm also loving the folded mirrored backdrop for your Nativity scene...imparts a beautiful European elegance to your decor! Thanks for inspiring! Hugs, Poppy
Babs,
