Happy November and welcome to TFT! This is now my sixth year co-hosting this fabulous weekly link party for bloggers and blog readers with Katherine of Katherine’s Corner and a fantastic group of bloggers!
NOTE: The party time has changed to 9:00 a.m. MDT (11:00 EST).

If you are looking for inspiration, want to share new ideas or make new friends, you’ve come to the right place!

Here’s what I’ve been up to:

Since Thanksgiving is a week later this year, it cuts a week off of Christmas decorating so I went ahead and got started earlier this year. I still have a long way to go but things are beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

This weekend I scored this gorgeous antique mantel at an estate sale! I am going to share a blog post about how I gave it very quick change with rub and buff gold and how I am switched it with a rectangular mirror in the dining room. Here’s a peek of the mirror and a little of bit of my Christmas tablescape in progress!

Last year the dining room wasn’t finished in time for Christmas, so it is still new to me and will be new space on my Christmas home tour this year.
