  1. Thank you for the sneak peek! I start decorating tomorrow, and I can’t wait! I’ve stocked up on my favorite black & white gingham ribbon, and also soft green silk ribbon. I love tying bows around things in the kitchen, and on my wreaths, etc… I’m always inspired after visiting Stonegable!

  2. Yes, it’s Christmas time at Stone Gable, So glad to see all your ideas for Christmas and advice. I love Christmas, it’s such a magical time of year. I’m with you on using the faux greenery. I started to decorate for Christmas before Thanksgiving this year in our master bedroom with a small live northfork pine tree an an apothecary jar filled with white lights, snow and a glass snowman, very whimsical and soft. Can’t wait to see your Christmas house tour and tree theme. As usual so beautiful and fun to open your blog. God bless.

  3. The classic Bing Crosby Christmas music is playing, candles flickering throughout our home, and I’m beginning my Christmas decorating today. Loving your encouragement!

  4. Oh what fun it is to read your blog Yvonne. I can not wait to see the rest of StoneGable all decked out!

  7. “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas everywhere you go”. So anxious to copy your ideas. I’m changing my dining room centerpiece this year and cannot quite get my thoughts around it.

  8. I’ll be looking forward to each day! I’ve already pinned the cheese and fruit Christmas tree. Thanks, Yvonne!

  9. I’m going yo make that cheese/grape tree for Christmas Eve. Lovely presentation.
    Your house looks so festive already. You’ve been busy. Other than getting all my cards written and posted, I haven’t made a move to prepare for Christmas. Where is my motivation this year? ?

  10. Very nice. I am looking forward to Monday’s post!
    I have a picky question: what size jars do you store flour, sugar, etc on your kitchen cabinets?
    Thanks!

  11. Thank you for the sneak peek Yvonne! So looking forward to the tours! So many great ideas, you do an amazing job! Ive started with a few trees in the bedrooms and a few small white houses for a snowy village. Will go into full throttle this weekend!

  12. Like Joanne in the above comment, I am going to be making that tree shaped fruit and cheese appetizer for my Christmas Eve party. Cannot wait for your house tour!!!

  13. I really don’t have much lovely in my life … but as I am looking at the beautiful pictures and reading your encouraging thoughts yet
    again today, I find that my heart has been truly, truly encouraged to seek out and enjoy the beauty around me. I wanted to say thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your ‘lovely’ site. YOU have so encouraged this heavy heart, far more than you know and I thank you.
    Merry CHRISTmas to you Yvonne and have a wonderful holiday season. Enjoy the SONshine, Jayne
