Silver and White

It’s that time of the year again and time for my traditional silver and white Christmas tree in the foyer. This tree is one of six I have up, It’s an eight foot Martha Stewart tree, beautifully shaped and pretty easy to put up with each row of branches being color coded. I do the whole room in white and silver for Christmas and carry the color scheme to the porch. Now lets take a little peak!

Simple white ribbons tied on the branches, lots of silver icicles, sand dollars, silver, white, crystal ornaments and of course white lights, are all that make up the tree.

A new/old addition to the foyer all decked out in white.

And a night view, and of course very hard to photograph.

Guess that’s all for now, See you tomorrow.

Diva

 

As I have said before I am a volunteer guide at Middleton Plantation in Charleston, but from the latter part of October to December the 23rd I work at a little shop in town. Christmas is a huge deal at this little shop and we are already decking the halls. These pictures are from my phone, so not the best, I will try to remember my camera tomorrow. This is the Diva tree and matching mantle.

Hope you enjoy! Not one inch on this mantle is not used, I just love the legs and the burlap together.

 

We have several trees in the store and all are decorated completely different. You can see the red tree in the back, we have an elf tree, woodlands tree and several more up and at least two more to put up.

See you soon with more Christmas ideals and better photos.

Warming Things Up



Seems like I am always creating work for myself and constantly trying to arrange and make the long hallway in this house look a little more cozy and warm and not like a bowling alley. This is how it looked a couple of weeks ago. The walls were a bright white, which did help lighten things up a bit but made the room feel so cold.

 

 

And the walls now, with a few accessories added.



 

As you can see we still need to have the floors sanded, which will happen after the holidays. 

 

 

 A night view and I love the warm feeling the area now has. I hope to have a full  shot of the area in a week or so. I still have paintings and a little more touch up painting to do.

 

  

 

   

  

   

   

 

Ok back to work organizing bookshelves.

See you soon,
