As we are into week #2 of Advent 2016 I thought I would share a few images of our own Catholic Sistas readers’ homes as well as a few images found on the internet. We, as women, are the keepers of our home. We can make decorating choices that will influence our families as well as the guests that stop in our homes about the our faith and this quiet expectant time we celebrate in Advent. Here are some images to inspire and hopefully give you some ideas for your home.
Catholic Sistas Reader Kimberly sent us these beautiful images of her home via the #CSAdventDecor Instagram thread!
I love the front porch “O HOLY NIGHT!”

Karen made a wonderful tradition to use this expectant Mary and Joseph set as an alternative to the Elf on the Shelf… moving them throughout their home nightly.
Gotta have the Fisher Price and Playmobil sets for the kids to play with!
