Christmas Inspiration #3...Cosy Winter Vases!

I love this idea of creating cosy knitted sleeves on vases for a really wintery feel for your table! I scoured clothing stores for cable knit leg warmers, complete with pompoms, and socks to create these beige and soft pink vases! Another option, for those of you who enjoy a little rummage, would be to hunt through some charity stores for some cable knit jumpers and make good use of the sleeves!! I added some cream roses but you could have any colour combination you like!

  

 

Have fun getting creative! Check back tomorrow for more Christmas ideas!

Christmas inspiration #2..roses & cakestands!

 I love red roses at Christmas and together with simple greenery from your garden you can create this easy centrepiece. If you prefer you could use white or even soft pink roses which would look equally beautiful. I used 2 vintage glass cakestands and a footed glass bowl to create the stand and then added small favour boxes and roses and foliage in small glass votive holders on the tiers. Hope you like!

I can't believe it's almost December...I hope you're getting excited and not too stressed with the shopping!! Look out for another idea tomorrow!
