Christmas Home Tour

Let's get right to it, shall we?  Christmas at my house starts with wintry black, white and silver in my kitchen...











The front hallway almost always has red, which for me, at heart, is really the color of Christmas.




The hallway also frames the living room...


















My living room opens up to the dining room, which is a feature I love about a house.  I love that people can linger at the table while others relax within conversation distance. 










My dining room side piece is so hard to photograph against the window!









I hope you all are enjoying this Christmas season.  My warmest wishes for heartfelt celebrations,

Olive Green Table Runner, on Trend and Classic

  One of the home color trends spotted at the High Point furniture market in October was earthy olive green.  What a gorgeous color addition to Christmas decorating, I think!  Especially on the table...




While this image is a sneak peek at my own Christmas table, the olive green satin runner is also available in the shop.  It is the most luxurious, high end designer satin, and reversible, too.





Truly, it is impossible to capture the gorgeousness of this fabric runner, with its soft, elegant shine.


Use it on bare wood for a traditional look...




Or change it up by layering it on a table cloth with a more modern setting...




For more on this table runner, check it out at 6 Wilson here.

And remember, a great meal starts with a great table!!  Enjoy your holiday decorating, friends.  I will be back with more on how I use this runner in my own home.
