‘Wine Cooler’ Tweaking

Yes, we have a wine cooler. My Dad bought it for us years ago and it really is nice to have here in Florida. It keeps wine just the right temp for drinking. We like to have a glass of red wine with most of our meals. So here’s a bit of my Tuesday Tweaking.

This is how I decorated it last Christmas…

I keep changing things around…

I never leave anything alone.

It’s never ‘done’!

Time to go turn it back on!

I’m joining Brenda at the Cozy Little House for Tweak it Tuesday.

And Coastal Charm for Nifty Thrifty Tuesday.

Are you still ‘tweaking’ your decorations?

You know me...I'm addicted to little houses. It's a darling addition to your Christmas decor.

Your decoration is adorable, but I know the feeling of "never done" :-) Well, we have to play somehow..

If I've said it once, I must have said it a hundred times...You ALWAYS find the best things at the thrift store! That little house is so cute! The lighthouse wine cooler is pretty neat too!

Catherine Holman said...

I love that you can light it up! What a great find. I'm never done tweaking either.

The little red house makes a nice addition to your holiday decor.

Linda @ A La Carte said...

Half the fun of decorating for the holidays is adding and subtracting and changing things around. This little house is just right for the wine cooler display. Love the Santa too. Hugs

Vee said...

Now that little house is darling...as is the entire vignette. Yes, I'll be tweaking until the day I pack it all away for another year. Tweakers Unite!

I love your little house, Diane. It is really cute with the Santa...and will work for the 4th of July decorating, too. Cheers! xo Diana

Robyn said...

Oh that looks adorable!.. I wont' be decorating this year. My husband just had his spine reconstructed less than a month ago and all our decorations are stored away where I can't get to them. He can but with his back not this year so I am loving looking at everyone's blogs and what they are doing.. I absolutely love this!

I love your new little house!

The French Hutch said...

How adorable is that little house! It's the perfect place to make the vignette. Santa looks right at home there, picket fence and all. Santa says, turn on the lights! I love little houses too.........

Diane, I love that little house. Am I still 'tweaking' my decorations? Am... I haven't started yet... :) I mean, my house is not decorated for holidays yet. Do you want to come over? :)

Celestina Marie said...

Hi Diane, Love how you displayed that sweet little house on top your wine cooler. How cute with the santa and the little fence. And, I just love the little tree too. It is a darling vignette. I've been making changes and redoing some decor too. I think when we get done early in the season, we do this. Have fun and enjoy the season.
Hugs, Celestina Marie

Betsy@My Salvaged Treasures said...

What a sweet little house, and I really like your lighthouse from last year popping up over the roof. Those pine cones are perfect next to the picket fence.

Carletta said...

I like it both ways!
Love the striped candles but the house tends to anchor it all just a bit more.
Mostly I put everything in the same place every year unless I get something new and since I have 30+ years of stuff I don't need anything else. :)

Unknown said...

So much sweet decorations for the special season! :D lovely!

Hugs,

Zimbabwe said...

That looks so pretty. We have only Christmas cards up, no other decorations as we will be away over the Christmas period. Hope you have a good one. Diane

JG said...

So cute! "Tweaking", well, we're still decorating. :) My DH located the green macrame hanging tree that I made years ago. A nice surprise!
