Tis' the Season for Mistletoe and Mischief. Cats certainly deliver the second, don't they? This year, for the holiday season, I've decorated the Trompe L'oeil Darford Estate Cottage. It's an elegant house, and a change from the last few holiday houses I've chosen. (That reminds me, I never did show you last year's house, did I? Maybe later.) I love this house, even though I feel as if I could have added something else to make it shine for the holidays. The wreaths in the windows ended up making it look like it had eyes, which was not the look I was going for, so I removed them.
My favorite room in the house, with its warm and cozy fireplace, is the study. The cats enjoyed curling up and keeping warm on those cold, snowy nights. I combined the Fall Wall Panels from Kraftwork with the lovely Warm Hearted Tales Keeper from 8f8. The Heritage Furniture from Merak and the Velvet Boheme chair and pillows with their leather textures and dark floral fabrics combined to make this a room I want to curl up and read a book in all day. The cats tend to steal all the good spots, including my comfy Winter Gray armchair, where I left my tea and pralines.
Speaking of mischief... the dining room is always a place cats can find something to get into. They know they're not supposed to be on the table, but when mom's not home, who will know?
And, nothing is more attractive to cats than a tree this time of year. Mine was no exception. It's from Fancy Decor - Festive Christmas Tree, though the base tree is the Apple Fall tree. I surrounded it with holiday decor - several things from the [Zerkalo] Noel gacha collection, plus a glass cabinet from Enaitch that I filled with my collection of snow globes from Fancy Decor. Jake updated the previous year's snow globes with PBR versions and sent them out to everyone who had previously purchased them. As you can see, the cats are having a lovely holiday. I hope you did too!
