a little holiday inspiration

I know, I know, already into the whole holiday decor thing...and here I am always saying how ridiculous it is that everyone always seems to entirely skip Thanksgiving and move right on to Christmas the day after halloween. Slap me if you'd like to. But I can't quite help this...I saw these pictures and got that 'ooooo, pretty!'. Holiday decorating has just always supplied me with this cozy, warm feeling inside. The, 'sitting by the crackling fire with a good novel and a flannel blanket over you as snow falls gently to the frozen, still ground outside' feeling. I love that feeling.
