It’s almost time for another Notecard Party at A Haven for Vee, and I love joining the party!
Since I’m smack dab in the middle of my Themes of Christmas series, I had to decide on at least one picture I’ve already posted here that would complement one of the themes I want to do.
I decided. Today’s theme is Mountain Cabin Christmas. I hope Vee doesn’t mind that I followed the urge to add some Christmas cheer to the previously-posted pics…
Welcome to a very rustic cabin in the Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee.
Come right on in.
Make yourself at home… Just be sure to close the door.
Those ol’ black bears need to stay on the other side of it.
Feel that chill in the air? Snow’s expected overnight.
Sure do hope you brought your sled. Tomorrow’s gonna be a fun day!
Elements of a Mountain Cabin Christmas theme:
(You may notice some things in common with the Woodland Christmas theme.)
- Bears, birds – and other wildlife
- Berries
- Pine boughs and pinecones
- Holly
- Snow
- Grapevine
- Plaid, felt, or burlap ribbon and tree skirt
Have you ever spent Christmas in a mountain cabin?
Would you want to – ever?

Oh I just loved the book and tv series Christy! What a darling cabin. I’ve spent time in a cabin at Christmastime and it was glorious but a lot of work hauling all the extra.
I have featured HOPE UNLIMITED on my blog today. I hope you’ll stop by.
Oh, how I would love to be tucked away in the warmth of an old-fashioned log cabin!!!! It all seems so romantic! As long as there’s indoor plumbing, plenty of heat and my hubby’s there, all is right with the world!!! Great theme!
I haven’t spent Christmas in a cabin, but I think it would be fun.
No, I don’t think that I would, but I would certainly enjoy visiting. I loved “Christy.” One of my all-time favorites when it first came out. And I even loved the tv show with Kellie Martin an Tyne Daly.
I love the Christmas embellishments. I often rework a photo formerly posted and, most especially, for the Note Card Parties. It’s fun to give an old photo some new life.
So glad that you squeaked in! It’s such a busy time for everyone.
Susan!!!! I’m so happy to hear from you!!! I still have your old blog on my sidebar, and I keep wondering where/how to find you! I love your new one! Wow! I wonder when I’ll take the plunge and move to WP.
My brother and SIL live in a beautiful log cabin that I photograph each time I go over then don’t get around to doing a post…there’s just something so strong and historical about a log cabin. I love to spend time there!
Thanks so much for taking the neighborhood tour with me 🙂
I wish you and all those you love (including the girls) a very happy Christmas season. ~Zuni
