Most of January 2016 on DTA comprised of Panama themed travel posts but one project adored was the Romantic Doily Scarf.

With the arrival of February, thoughts turned to love. A Regency Era Valentine tea was held and the mantel was transformed into an ode to Jane Austen.

December

Earlier this month Storybook Cottage was decorated for Christmas HERE and HERE. The month ended with a series of “Little House” themed Christmas posts. A thank you gift for your readership and the links to all those themed posts can be found HERE.

It’s fun to think about what 2017 may hold. I know this June I will FINALLY graduate and celebrate the occasion with a trip to England and Ireland. But in the immediate future, there is to be a large renovation project occurring in January. That said, posting here will be sporadic for the next week or two as Mr. Decor and I undertake this task.

I’d like to hear from you. As a reader, what would you like to see more of at Decor To Adore in 2017?

    How exciting to contemplate the new year and graduation. I'm not sure I know how you managed to create all these beautiful things and still do a grad program! AND post regularly! All I can say is that you really have your act together. Everything you do is beautiful.

    Here's to a wonderful 2017. Sounds like you have lots of exciting things in your plan. Three cheers!

    I look forward to your posts, They are varied and always interesting! Thank you for sharing your talent and congratulations on your degree. My daughter is in med school and says you must have an outlet or your studies will suffer. Perhaps your studies benefited from your blog. We have! Marie

    You out did yourself, again. When I look back at all your projects, I'm overwhelmed with “eye-candy” projects.
    My favorite, absolutely favorite… “Best'est” of all, was the Little House Christmas, series. Hands down, my favorite.
    But the picture of Franz and Rudi, cracks me up!!
