Christmas Inspiration #7...Fruits & Flowers

Well first let me apologise for my absence over the last couple of days...I knew it would be impressive if I actually managed to blog a Christmas idea every day!! I have been racing around decorating a party on Saturday, a wedding yesterday and a gorgeous engagement photo shoot today at Stancliffe Hall. Keep checking back for photos as I guarantee they will be amazing as they were taken by my fabulous friend Jade Alana! It was a Tuscany inspired shoot (yes I know it's the middle of winter...and there is snow on the hills up in Matlock...and the couple nearly froze to death)...but I promise you'll feel a touch of the Italian sun when you see it! But I'm back now with another Christmas offering...this time, fruits and flowers in modern cube vases. I used white avalanche roses in 2 cubes and some plum and pink tone glittered and glass fruit decorations in 2 cubes but you could use any colour combination that you like (within reason!!) Let me know what you think!







Hopefully I'll manage to blog a little more inspiration tomorrow in between cleaning my very neglected house and decorating it for Christmas!! See you then!x

Christmas Inspiration #6...Winter Woodland

I absolutely love these miniature Christmas trees and conifers which look great in these vintage cream urns! Add a little sparkle with some mercury glass baubles, glittered walnuts and cones for a simple winter woodland on your holiday table!







I hope you're enjoying your Christmas preparations...my kids are all excited about putting our tree up tomorrow...in honour of the occasion I have painted a wall in my living room a beautiful Christmas red today!!! Does anyone else have mad moments like this too??!!! It's so cosy, so no regrets yet!! Let me know what you're doing to make your home all festive this year!
