For now though - check out this inspiring lot of designer Christmas decor:
Care for tea?
A Vintage tabletop Christmas.
And I thought my fireplace mantel was loaded!
Christmas in monochrome. Red, monochrome.
My absolute FAVORITE combination this time of year. Scent, texture, visual - pomegranates and pinecones ... no better pairing.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
Elegantly simple.
Simply elegant.
A modern twist.
Twisting topiary.
I promise we'll be back up and running in no time! Thanks for checking in!
Hello dear friend...
ReplyDeleteI pray you are well, and nothing serious, you never miss a post. You and Scott must be running your legs off again. What on earth are you decorating now? Do you even have anything left to decorate? I can't believe that you would.
Sadly still no package has arrived. Did you check the address? I am going to post some pics before the weekend so that you can see what I have done. You will be pleased I know.
You and Scott take care. Stay warm with the weather changes, and how is your foot? Talk to you soon.
Much love and hugs to you both. Friends Always, Sherry

Hi Artie,
ReplyDeleteIs a busy time of year, pace yourself friend! I know I have to.
Wow, some amazing photos, drool drool. But makes me feel a bit like I don't know what I am doing at my place. ??
Hope you are staying warm in NY!
Hugs, Linda
L-o-v-i-l-ee!!! Thank you for sharing them all.
ReplyDeleteAnxiously awaiting for the tour of your Neighbours' Festive Decor.

Lovely Christmas decor but I don't think any rivals yours -- yours this year is definitely magazine worthy --
ReplyDeleteTake care and enjoy the season -- have a glass of wine with Scott in front of the fireplace with just the trees ons and enjoy!
Artie, these pictures are just fabulous. Every single one is beautiful in its own way.
ReplyDeleteNow I can't wait to see what your neighbors have done!
Justine :o )

There really are an unlimited number of ways to decorate for the holidays. Each so different and beautiful. Hope things are okay on your end.

If you could see me now !!! I am running for my hot glue gun because I have a mirror over my fireplace that is begging for a pine cone/garland treatment. Thanks for inspiring me .....
ReplyDeleteArtie~I hope it's just the Christmas rush that has you distracted.
ReplyDeleteThe peacock tree took my breath away!! It is *STUNNING*, and has such an array of beautty from the feathers to the agate ornaments. I too couldn't resist the agates for the incredible price. You are so generous to share your connections.
I have been able to purchase items from your suggestions, better priced than I can find at the trade show.
I have to say the burlap tablescape was a surprise. I couldn't believe what (for me) can be a harsh texture came across so soft, warm and inviting. The fabric boarder actually was a subtle, but significant touch that softened the burlap without losing the effect. You always show the perfect blends of textures that compliment each other. Once again I leave with hope I can pull the decor together with your tips.
Sweet Holiday wishes,
Sara
Great inspiration, Artie! :)
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed seeing your neighbors' gardens so this will be a special treat! Would love to see a post on just your acquarium sometime! What kind of fish, do they have names, what kind of plants, rocks and filtering system! Inspire me to buy one!
