Happy Easter to You!

A Very Happy Easter Wish

To all my friends…may this beautiful holiday be filled with family and friends, faith and love, happiness and joy. This Easter I am so happy because there was a rift in my family – but it’s beginning to mend. Everyone will be at the table this year – I am so grateful for that.

 

Happy, Happy Easter to all!

Chinese Lantern Pods: An Old Favorite Re-Discovered

I love Chinese lanterns! These colorful beauties are a natural for fall décor. They can be dried and used in wreaths and floral arrangements around the home. One of my clients, Dottie, gave me a beautiful bunch of these plants last week. As soon as I saw them I was transported back to my childhood.

Fall Colors and Memories Tablescape

Bringing in Fall Color and Memories into Your Home

So today I thought I’d show you a tablescape I did that brings in the last bits of fall foliage from my garden and a few mementos.  I love to bring in memories and special items into any vignette that I do.   (more…)

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

I hope that everyone is getting ready to have a wonderful Thanksgiving.  I am so thankful for having a roof over our heads this season.  Sandy could have been so much worse for us – being a block away from the water – and I want to just say that this year I am so grateful for having a home, power and wonderful family and friends to enjoy it with.  My heart goes out to everyone that is without their home – and the many here on Long Island and the tri-state who are still without power.

Thanksgiving tablescape

 

tablescape on an angleJust a few pics of our table. This was such a hard table to photograph.  I have a new found appreciation of tablescape photography after this.  We are having 15 over for the feast.  I need a wide angle lens (for Christmas, hint hint!)!!!

I will try try to post a few more images later.  Have to baste the turkey and make vegetables appear!
