Deck all halls with boughs of holly
fa la la la la lala la!!
........after Thanksgiving for many years I have had the pleasure of transforming homes with the elements of HolidaY.
Clients go out of town or to the city overnight, for theatre
or shopping spree and return to a funfilled fantasy next day.
My family has missed me for many years and many hours before Thansksgiving- but my daughter and I have had the traditional experiences of creating such extraordinary transformations for businesses, residences and resturants all those years - choosing many trees and boughs for staircases, has been a most fascinating experince, cherished by all of us.
luminaries
were prepared and gathered to light the way for the christ child- to guide him through the night, to symbolize the star that broke the heavens with angels refrains.
many renditions of the sack luminary is portrayed by different
cultures and occasions-
christmas, easter, halloween weddings,
anything extraordinary with 'special attached'
all and any celebratory lighting with silloette
approach on parchment
Holiday Movie sets
so much of our design inspiration-
comes from elevated moments in movies-
the feeling- the warmth -the tears -
the reality of past experiences through
others life's
my very most inspiring elf designer with a whimiscal
touch for white things-
Buddy- what he does with a piece of paper
and lights is beyond fusion...and he knows "Santa"
Home for the holidays!
Creating your nest for the Holidays- is always a delight - for if it is your first approach as a newly wed or
to the tradtional gatherings of elmental decor
given you from family and shopping events-
all are a essential moments for your reflection and memories of family, places-music or inspiration past.
Putting on the carols with the warmth of a cocoa cup between your hands, and the squint of the eyes to make certain your lights are evenly distributed-
ahhh the holidays.
Fireplace gathering is the most intriging of elements
this fabulous Cole and son wallpaper, of trees in woods with logs are a backdrop for winter fantasy with yet a semi elf Buddy inspired penguin moment. While the urn and gold are brought back to a natural elegant element with warm testures of pinecones.......
light globes and formal scale -
all can be approached with even the least amount of patience and whim- from target purchased balls and gathered pinecones- while clipping a neighbors pine tree, nature and outside environments
provide elegant dippings for your enjoyment... just commiting to the purchase of a fine large glass "vaaa-aase"
you ought do it!
"happy decking"
