From Shop to Home

Breaking out festive red sheets, twinkle lights and my favorite music box candle from Illume.  

I bought one at the shop last year and we have a few left in stock.  Makes a lovely gift.  

Comes in a charming plaid box and winds at the back to play holiday music.

Smells just like a Christmas tree and reminds me of being in the mountains.

These are my favorite type of candles.  Soy-based.

Here is where I find some of my inspiration for creating a festive holiday bedroom.
Updates coming soon.

I absolutely love this!

I have been asked for years to share our shop Christmas playlist

and will be adding it to our blog this week.

Coming soon!  Wishing you a happy Tuesday!

This was a room that rarely got used and now I think it will become one of 

our favorite spots to entertain.  See more here.

The chocolate dipped wrapped Oreos were the biggest hit!

Found here in the  Gourmet Food Import section.

Jonny liked them so much that I'm going back for more.

Wishing everyone a happy Monday!

Holiday Table Setting 101

Here are just a few tips for setting a charming holiday table.

Use a table runner to set the stage and the color palette.

Candles are a must.  Nothing too strong, but I love the twinkle they give.

Festive candy is an inexpensive way to add color and is fun for children.

Add green.  Real is best, but sometimes not practical.  Try an evergreen candle for illusion.

Most of my items are from here.

Remember the most important thing when decorating is to have fun 

and add your own personal touch.

Thanks for visiting!

Happy entertaining!
