Hello friends, well no rest for the weary over here. I am ready to click my heels and land in 2022!\u00a0 Talk about burning the midnight oil, I am guilty as charged. Not a single extra minute in my days lately. I have recently stepped up my holiday decorating and am pleased to say I am about done..woo hoo. We are having a family Christmas party this weekend which was definitely a motivator in getting things done.<\/p>\n

And if you are in need of wrapping paper and ornaments, (prettiest out there in my opinion) starting this morning through Sunday, every ornament and all gift wrap 30% off!! SHIPS OUT TODAY! use code jolly<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n

I love the way it came out, used lots of fresh greenery and and accents of white, as you know I love blue and white against the lush greenery that is so plentiful this time of year, it is a hard combination to beat. Walking into my living and dining room makes me happy seeing all the pretty festive decorations in my favorite color scheme.<\/p>\n

I still have some wreaths to hang and some fresh greens to add (do that last minute) but am 90% about done. Soooo happy about that. This year I was really feeling the pressure so this is a tremendous weight off my shoulders. I decided to bot stress the way I normally do and somehow it all came out exactly as I had hoped. Its been a stressful season so was not quite feeling m y usual vigor and spirit, but marched forward and did the bet I could.<\/p>\n

So without further ado, here is my holiday decor…..<\/p>\n

____________________________________________<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Glancing into the living room from my foyer, I mad this giant oversized amaryllis arrangement with faux amaryllis and fresh greens as my centerpiece arrangement<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Did this with our big village scene bowl we just sold out but getting more around Dec 29th<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Added fresh greens, little berries and clusters ornaments for a little sparkle<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u00a0My tree and stockings all hung!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Just love the colors<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

I have not added the fresh cedar greenery quite yet but will!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The lily of the valley paper in green is a perfect paper for the holidays too<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

White berries? Yes!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Next year, we will once again offer our sensational custom stockings. They are really so beautiful.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Love eucalyptus for the holidays, these will be mixed in with fresh cedar<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

The tree at the golden hour<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And then moving into the dining room, I did a similar look to the mantle with our beautiful custom stockings, more blue and white including our white artichoke topiaries (a favorite). Added the faux eucalyptus and fresh greens. Started to set my table and tried three different place settings. Unfortunately, \u00a0 I love them all equally!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I put fresh greens inside my stockings to give them a little fullness<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Love seeing everything by candlelight<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The new Lily of the Valley collection done in collaboration with Carolyne Roehm sure sets a gorgeous table! WE are sold out of the dinner sized plates but getying more in about 3 weeks!<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Love it with the octagonal pierced silver chargers, so elegant!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Added a little nutcracker\/favor with some fresh greens<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And our beautiful pagodas silverware is the perfect finishing touch! Sold out but due to get it again early Jan.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Isn’t everything by candlelight just a little prettier!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

A few more areas of the house where i dded small doses of holiday cheer like outside my door, still a work in progress but here are things so far<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n
