Happy decorating to all my fellow Christmas elves!! I have been pulling out the trees and baubles and garlands and lights for weeks now! I am happy to say that I am nearly done! Just a few finishing touches and projects to complete.
Our living room is always one of my first decorating hot spots when I put my Santa hat on and get down to business. I found some incredibly fabulous ornaments and trim at the World's Longest Yard Sale this year that gave me a jumping off point for this room.
I have done nuetrals and metallics in this room for a couple years in a row now and wanted to mix it up a bit. I decided to add small touches of red but tried to do so in a fresh way. It started with a big bouquet of mini rosebuds in a rich red and a big bunch of white baby's breath. I fell in love with it and decided I wanted it to last all season so I found some ribbon roses in the wedding section at the craft store to replace the fresh ones so I could keep the look all season.
Remember the floral pick with the antlers I found and couldn't figure out what to do with for a few weeks last fall? I finally used it in the dining room centerpiece with hydrangeas from the yard. You can see more of that tablescape
here I decided to reimagine that container and pick for the library table in the living room.
I used the antlers, an old holiday pine centerpiece and boxwood cuttings from my yard and the little ribbon roses. I think it came out pretty well.
So that is where I started and just let the rest come together piece by piece. I will share more as I get a little more finished!
