It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the DIY Show Off home! We have an odd room we often label the sitting room that sits right off of our dining room. It’s probably the room that gets rearranged most in our home, as I’ve shared in the past…
Now that I’ve shared some projects for a new sitting room look this week, I wanted to put it all in one post to show the entire area.
I’ve been snapping pictures every day for about two weeks, different times of the day, different manual settings, with a tripod…photography is hard work when the lighting is tricky and the French doors have been making it a challenge. But here goes the best I could do…
Be prepared, there are a LOT of pictures.
- table is made from a small cushioned stool and an old window
- candle ring with chalkboard message makes for a nice festive door knob
- Christmas vignette:
Every time I decorate this little area, it’s my favorite space. I can’t decide what my favorite part is: painted chairs, His & Hers pillows, barrel side table, window coffee table, eclectic vignette…the entire room is comfortable and cozy. What do you think? Do you have a small area for quiet conversations or reading?
I’m sharing a bit of my Christmas home tour over at Unskinny Boppy today kicking off her Home for the Holidays series.
Don’t forget to Show Off your Christmas tree!

It’s a very beautiful room. Totally love the Christmas vignette with the frame and wood tray? above the table.
It all looks absolutely BEAUTIFUL Roeshel!! I have that same birdcage and now I’m going to go dig out some ornaments to put in it after seeing how pretty yours looks. You have done such an amazing job on this space, my friend! 🙂

This is such a cozy space, so many awesome DIY projects!! Love it all, especially those chairs and wood chip trees. 🙂
It’s all so pretty! I love the accessories that you used, especially the twig Christmas tree and birdcage filled with ornaments. Great furniture too!

What a charming room – I can imagine how lovely it must be to sit and drink a cup of tea there! One detail I love is the shiny ornaments in the bird cage – what a lovely idea! Thanks for the inspiration – enjoy the holidays!

What a fun space and I love how you constantly update it. I’m loving the new set up with the his& her pillows and those script drop cloth drapes are gorgeous. Give its such a rustic charm. Just beautiful!

Did you make the curtains? Those are my favorite element in the room! Would love to have them for my sitting room/walk in closet.
Hi Laura! Yes! There’s a tutorial linked within the post. Easy script no-sew drop cloth curtains. I made them last year but still love them. 🙂 You’ll have to let me know if you make a set for your sitting room/walk in closet! Would love to see!
