Hello dear friends,
What is it about music that feels our heart with joy and lifts our spirits?
I absolutely love singing along with the radio at the top of my lungs! And believe me, it's no treat. I was not blessed with any type of musical ability! I look at a sheet of music and it just says, "pretty" to me. I have never learned how to read music.
Still, nothing stirs my soul quite like beautiful music!
I'm so thankful to Amber from Follow The Yellow Brick Home for organizing this wonderful hop. So many talented ladies will show you how they bring music into their homes at Christmas time.
If this is your first time visiting, I am so happy to have you!! If you are hopping over from Itsy Bits and Pieces then I know that you have been well fed!!
I don't have a lot of musical things, but enough that I could add touches to our living room mantle.
When people gather music pulls them together. I rolled a few sheets of vintage music I bought at a thrift shop and tied them with ribbons of gold.
The two little birds inside the ornament are a reminder that more is always merrier!!
I made the music sheet garland a few years ago. I draped it along the front edge of the mantle.
I never pass up a cute music book at a thrift shop. I especially love the colors on this one!
I made the paper garland a few years ago.
The Star of Bethlehem was a gift from a dear friend last year.
I also have a small collection of musical themed vintage cuties.
This little girl may not be a caroler, but she certainly looks like she has a song in her heart to me! I found her at a thrift. My friends weren't that impressed, but I love her!!
Wishing you all a magical, musical Christmas!
Next up is Carol from Art and Sand. She is so talented and will inspire you immensely!!
Be sure and visit all of the other ladies for some musical inspiration.

You put together the prettiest vignettes, Jann! I love everything from the carolers to the garlands and banners made from music sheets. It's all totally festive and fantastic. I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, hugs, CoCo
Such cute ideas with the sheet music. I may need to "borrow" that idea from you for next year!

Oh my I love your little carolers and musicians...so cute! Your decor is wonderful, Jann! I need to make some of your sheet music chains...and I love the mantel garland, too! Great inspiration!
Never have I seen sheet music singing such a beautiful song. Love your mantel, Jan. I can almost hear your singing from way down here as you twirl around and around whilst happily decorating.
Loving this blog hop such a cute idea. I love music and to sing but have a terrible voice. Love your banner on your bottle brush tree.

Jann, This is such a great blog hop. Music plays such a big part in Christmas time. I have found a couple of great old sheet music that pertains to Christmas and now you have reminded me to dig them out. I love the chain you made to put on your piano. What fun and Merry Christmas to you..Judy
Can you even imagine the world without beautiful music? Let alone at Christmastime, specifically! Oh the sounds of the season just delight my soul! Your musical mantel is so lovely, Jann! Merry Christmas!
i love the whimsical angel also. she looks like she is just going to belt out a carol! never thought about rolled music sheets - looks festive w/ ribbon!
Jann,
What a fun post, full of merry Christmas joy.
Merry Christmas,
Judith
I love every detail of this!! I am so loving that mirror!!! And that garland is so darling!!

Jann, how wonderful to share this hop,with you and to see your beautiful post! I love the music garland and your mantel is just perfect. Merry Christmas
Hi Jann, What a great idea for a blog hop, music is such a big part of the Christmas Season, it makes it so appropriate. Thank you for the beautiful song in your heart that you share through out the year. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
xoxo Jo
Jann, it's a pleasure look at your wonderful decorations! Your home looks so nice and festive for Christmas!!
Merry Christmas,
Hugs!
Hi Jann, I am catching up on commenting and just want to say how much I love your vintage and thrifty heart! You can create almost any kind of theme, given the challenge and cache of finds in your treasure chest! That music box with tree is a beauty, and I happen to like the little girl with star head. You tiered tray of deer and bottle brush trees earlier in the week also was a star - so much detail, so many little cuties! I'm so happy you're enjoying the season, and am privileged to know you in the circle of blogging friendships.
Merry Christmas, Jann, to you and your family!
Rita
I love how you have incorporated music into your Christmas space! All the touches are dear and adorable!
Hope you are feeling well and hanging in there this holiday. Thinking of you always.
Jann,
I love the use of vintage sheet music as a paper garland!
There's music in the air at Christmas!
You've made a harmonious design with your carolers!
Merry Christmas!
Pat
Oh my, love all your music treasures. The garland and your clever music sheet chain. Love all of it The originality is fabulous.May have to copy cat you on the chain idea, i have some very old encyclapedias to use. Thanks so much for sharing and i hope you are feeling better. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Lisa@Sweet Tea N Salty air
I love your music sheet garland! That is so clever! I like your collection of little carolers too! Angelina @ Petite Haus
Jann, I wasn't blessed with any musical talent, including singing. My mother had a beautiful voice. I used to love to hear her sing in church and just around our home. Music makes for a happy heart. We have a beautiful piano that my husband played up until a few years ago. I wish he would begin playing again. Thanks for sharing. Your little thrifty girl makes me smile. I love her smile!
Merry Christmas!
Jann it doesn't matter if you feel like you can't sing or weren't blessed with music talents, the point is that you enjoy the GIFT of music which is for everyone! By the way, it is never too late to learn, I gave piano lessons to 72 year old man who had never played before and he picked up fast and learned to play a few songs quickly!
I love your pretty vignettes with the sheet music treasures. The gold ribbon is so pretty on the sheet music. The caroling book is a great find!
Your little kitschy carolers are wonderful and I love the harp player!
I am so blessed that you were able to join us on this hop. Have yourself a "merry musical" Christmas!
Jann the use of musical paper is so pretty and really adds interest to any decor. I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas!!
You've pulled together another wonderful vignette Jann. Music is at the heart of Christmas isn't it? Glory! Merry Christmas my friend and blessings in the new year.
Love the garland, so very festive! I know you are starting your treatment, sending much love and prayer your way Jann. Warmest and sincerest Seasons’ Greetings, and hopes for a speedy recovery!
Jann,MERRY CHRISTMAS!God bless you and yours!Thanks for sharing joy,beauty,hope and love all the time!Thanks for hosting!Hugs,Maristella.
