Home For The Holidays

After doing so many large-scale Christmas decor projects, it’s always refreshing to get back to “reality” and decorate a private residence. Nothing too huge. Nothing over-the-top. Just pretty decorations appropriate for the home. And that’s one less task for the family to deal with during this hectic holiday season. The chandelier in the Dining Room is a wonderful focal point. Adorned with chartreuse amaryllis, pewter glittered allium, ribbons & ornaments. All beautiful in its own right… but it was really the shadows on the ceiling that made the most dramatic impact. chandelier 2 chandelier 8 chandelier 3 The doorways were flanked with fresh evergreen garlands and colorful festoons & ribbons which maintained the color-theme of the room. dining room doorway festoon The main stairway was decorated with a classic swag of evergreen garland and deep burgundy ribbons. foyer stairway 1 foyer doorway festoons The formal Living Room hosted a thematic Christmas Tree, as well as a formal twist on the fireplace mantle with evergreen, magnolia branches and golden ribbons cascading on both ends. living room fireplace 1
