Christmas Home Tour~Den, Bar & Rec Room

Lovies, I am sorry once again for not keeping up with my posts, I wanted by now to have had my Christmas Home Tour complete, but I was thrown for a loop with the tragedy in Newtown, CT.
Here is the last of the Christmas Home Tour allow me to start in 
THE DEN~
 This little Christmas tree I have had, well since before I met my husband so that makes it well over 20 years old, it is in great condition because I take good care of our things.  The container it is in is not the original I bought it at Hobby Lobby last year after Christmas sale~
 The fleur de lis & cross  decorations were meant for a small tree, I was lucky to have found some amber colored bead garland at a thrift store for $2.00~
 This "STAR" is actually a brooch that is interchangeable with other faux colored stones. I love the way it looks as our star~
My small collection of Christmas books that my husband has bought me throughout the years, I wish I can find some other Christmas miniature books.  This little white dove is in honor of my beautiful mother, she called all of her children & grandchildren "Turtle Dove"~
The Bar~
 The bar had no shelving & had doors to close it up, I had my husband remove the doors & we had these glass shelves installed, I am glad we did this now I can showcase some pretty things~ 
 This container that houses my cork collection was found very recently at a thrift store it has Arden stamped & a black rubber like stopper that I am not able to remove on the bottom.  Anyone know what it is?  What it was used for?
 These pink & green ornaments were from my mother in law, I have not used them until this year, because they were "lost" I am so glad we found them!  I think I am going to leave this tray, turned  chalk board  right where it is it fits this area perfectly~
Of course I need to show off my beautiful swans.  This was a gift from my youngest sister,  I  really 'guilted' her into giving it to me~
The Rec Room~
 This is the "fun" tree, my angels tree!  One of my angels loves to decorate it year after year and I must say he does a very good job making sure they are spread out over the tree.  Can you see the green bear & the white bear with the Santa hat? My husband gave these to me in my stocking on our very first Christmas together.  They are so special to me, he was still a collage student & poor so I really treasure them & make sure I show case them every year~
The santa's got a makeover, okay I just added some fairy lights & snow, but I think it made them look so much better~  The wreath my sister made me. You see every year my sisters & I make our gifts to each other & if they have made something Christmas(y) I make sure to put it up every year.
