HELP I need some decorating inspiration!

[happyappygirl]

I'm going to try to get our new place decorated inside and out for the holidays this weekend and i need some inspiration...
It's a log cabin in the woods and I want to decorate using a rustic country Christmas theme. Anyone know of any great websites or a log cabin specific magazine?
I'm going to make the trip to that big craft store too this week. Michaels is it?
I'm looking for framed horse prints as well, Indian/Appaloosa prints in particular.
TIA!

[happyappygirl]

both!
i really want the place to look warm and inviting, family is coming over and i want it to look like i know what i'm doing when decorating for the holidays
i've always decorated country, but this place is a real log cabin, and i know there has to be somewhere i can go for inspiration and i'm just not finding it. TIA NoMo!

I get BHG and this month's deco ideas leave a little to be desired
Lowes sent out a great mag this month, and i'll try to incorporate some of those ideas. I'll grab southern living this month, thanks!

Candles. LOTS of candles.. the more open flames the better.. and if you're in the woods.. a bonfire to set the mood.. and feel free to leave it unattended.. bonfires are safe and romantic

Also go walk thru the Apple Basket tonight and see their decorations:shrug: Even though there is so much in there you might get a few idea's.

Crow's feet and and any type of greens, especially running cedar...But the real stuff, none of the fake stuff.....

Sometimes the simpler the better! I agree, candles in the windows... wreaths on windows or homemade swags under each window... Red bows~ You could always get some gingham type ribbon for indoor or outdoor bannisters, mailbox, etc... HGTV.com sometimes has tips on how to make things or DIYnet.com (I think )

HINT/TIP: Nothing says Christmas like the color red. Fill a clear glass with cranberries and top it off with a few white roses or lilies. Float cranberries and a few floating candies in a silver bowl or fill some small, stylish bowls with cranberries and place them throughout the house... I STOLE THIS IDEA OFF OF "TIPical Maryellen"

Pine Cones and berries(the fake ones). I saw the Big Pine cones in Walmart

Like Sharon said, try Terry's Village. They have lots of stuff in log cabin themed stuff as well as Indian/horse motif. They're also very affordable.

Does anyone know where to find "coffee" ornaments?? I am doing a coffee themed tree and am finding it rather difficult... The balls are bronze and cream color... sugar cube garland, silver stirring spoons....

I saw brown Martha Stewart bulbs at K-Mart.

Man, this is a tough one.

You could hang demitasse cups on the branches.

Maybe some coffee samplers?
