You are so very welcome! I am glad you like the coasters.

We have our tree up and decorated. I am really enjoying it again. You can see it now at http://thecranberrychronicle.blogspot.com/2009/12/o-christmas-tree.html

Your new laundry room is so beautiful. I love a great laundry room and yours is a joy. Mine is small but cheerfully decorated as it is also where people who visit us hang their coats.

Hugs en groetjes ~
Heidi

Love your Christnas trees Corry, all of them ! The one yet to be decorated looks like a Nordmann which we will be after at the weekend. Yuors is the perfect shape, hope there's one left for me!
Hema looks like a great place to shop (from the things you show us ) wish we had them in England....those ornaments are so cute, and the crosstitch tree ! did you do that ? it is lovely, such rich colours.
I just got back from christmas shopping in Manchester and it is so nice to sit down with a coffee and look at your colourful pictures! isn't shopping nice when it stops!!

P.S. I forget to say your new laundry room is very nice - I wish we had room for one. Love the hearts on the cupboard doors.

Love your laundry room... she said envious...LOL!

I’ve bought the same tree at the HEMA!

do you have any idea how many women would give their right arm (and possibly their left) for your laundry room? green with envy.

Lee D said...

What an amazing laundry room. glad to see Hema still has some wonderful finds. Our tree probably won't go up for a couple more weeks yet, but all the other decorations are up.

What a laundry room!

all your trees are pretty

Just today our tree was decorated - we have our two grandaughters at home and they were too anxious to do it :) Everything they found and shined in the Christmas boxes they put on it - I even gave them some to their home...

Oh I would love to have a cabinet like yours in my laundry room!

bibbitybob said...

Your laundry room looks gorgeous - I think I'd enjoy washing and ironing much more if I had a space like that to do it in!

lheurebleue said...

wat een heerlijke ruimte is het geworden!
ik kon ook niet weerstaan aan de return-to-senderdenneboom van de hema ...

Mary-Kay said...

Wow! I love your laundry room. It loooks fantastic.

Brenda Pruitt said...

I noticed there was not one bit of laundry to do! Oh, how I wish I had more than a walk-through laundry room. Yours is gorgeous and so clean. That tree is so sweetly shaped. And the one with the beads: oh, how long that must have taken to make!

Hi! My name is erica. Would you be my friend? said...

Ooo! That's a wonderful laundry room...I'm jealous! I love the hearts in the cabinets. Such a nice touch!

I love those ornaments too...so sweet! We should be getting our tree this weekend, if all goes according to plan...

Levin said...

your tree is so cute! and so are the decorations - i look forward to seeing the 'after' shot of your tree.
i love your laundry - it's just pretty - which is a nice thing for a laundry - ours is very unattractive :(
it makes it hard to spend time there.

Corry, what a beautiful tree you've chosen! It is going to look so lovely with those sweet ornaments! And your laundry room is great! Have fun doing the laundry in such a nice environment!!!

The laundry room came out fabulous. Love the floors and the pretty cabinet curtains.

Oh Corry! The hearts on the cupboard doors are so you! Happy, happy place to do laundry! Yeah! E

Judy @ daily yarns said...

Such a beautiful laundry room, and I love all the trees. I miss putting up a real tree. Maybe next year.

Christy Amular said...

That tree looks beautiful even without decorations! I can almost smell its beautiful fresh scent.

I love seeing all the colorful goodies on your blog!

marina said...

Is it pathetic to have laundry envy?
I have a pokey little squashy room as my laundry, I would love that much space.
your little ornaments look lovely.

Annie said...

I love your new laundry room Corry. Bet youre glad to have it finished for christmas.
My tree went up last Sunday and was decorated by my little one year old Granddaughter and her mummy....happy happy memories have gone into store :-):-)

Good post, nice blog. I like your laundry room. Thanks for share useful products.

Dag Corry, allereerst dankjewel voor je leuke, enthousiaste reactie op het "fornuisje".
Ik heb steeds al je logjes gevolgd ook al plaats ik weinig reacties e ik word altijd heel erg vrolijk van de heerlijke kleuren die hier altijd te zien zijn. Die twee popjes bij hun serviesje vind ik om te zoenen, de foto's zijn zó mooi.
Vandaag heb ik mijn kerstboom al neergezet, ineens moest het gebeuren en ik vind het heerlijk om weer naar de lichtjes te kunnen kijken. Je engel heb ik gedownloadt, wat een schatje is dat met die roze wangetjes en je wasruimte vind ik prachtig, daar ben ik jaloers op, niet afgunstig ;- ) Heerlijk om in te werken. Fijne decembermaand!

Love the hearts on the cabinet doors. So fresh and clean looking !

GardenOfDaisies said...

How nice to have a beautiful new laundry room! I like the heart cutouts in the cupboard doors. And stitched tree ornaments are very pretty.

Clair said...

Just found your blog....and it's beautiful! I've got you bookmarked now and will be popping in regularly.

anne from finland said...

You have very lovely Christmas tree decorations! Your laundry room looks so good!

Julie said...

Oh my our tree has been up for weeks! Your laundry room looks so nice and I just love the hearts in the cupboard doors!

I love that you think it's possibly to early to put your tree up. Here in the States many have their trees up before the 1st of December.

Moorea said...

Corry,
Your laundry room is so sweet! Nice and sunny and warm! My laundry is in my garage- it's so cooold in there now!
I cannot wait to see your tree decorated with all the handmade ornaments. We finally got our tree up and decorated, we have not had one for 4 years, due to exhausting pregnancies and then little grabbing hands- so it is fun to finally have again. Have a good Sunday!

Love, Moorea

Your tree is so perfect! And the ornaments are wonderful. I really love how your laundry room turned out! What a great place! I would almost enjoy doing the laundry....almost. LOL
