Holiday prep and decorative detail time is upon us here at Places in the Home. All is merry and bright with the help of caffeine, precision planning, patience (lots of merry patience), swift kitchen detail and keeping a cool and relaxed tude to guarantee a cool yule.
I tapped into the decorations closet of Christmas past for inspiration and holiday show this year. Everything is new again is the holiday decorations running theme. It’s a great way to reacquaint yourself with treasured favorites and to fall back in love with them all over again.
I had more fun pulling vintage, antique and new accents from here and there and grouping them together in holiday harmony.
Items that immediately identify with and tell the story of individual tastes, collections and personality are always in the best of style, your style.
The centerpiece is one of those “it all just came together” accents, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. A big thank you to the florist at Kroger for her well timed and generous markdown on the roses, and to my brother who showed a magnolia tree and juniper bush who was boss with his mad clipping and cutting skills.
No shrubs or trees were harmed in the making of this Christmas centerpiece, just pruned and picked.
From all of us here at Places In The Home, we wish you a Places In The Home for the Holidays very Merry Christmas filled with peace, joy, fond memories old and new, blessings, love, relaxing times with family and friends and a joyous celebration of the beauty of the season in your places in the home.
