Birds.Glitter.Yarn.Please.

Today's Agenda:  Enjoying the view of the snow from my office.  Ah. 

So, I thought about leaving my white christmas tree unadorned and simple with pretty white lights.  Our home has white walls and it just blended in so nicely.

Well, that lasted about a week.

Until I found these cards at Anthropologie. 
And imagined dozens of them on the tree...and proceeded to buy dozens (hello? sale!).  They had a bird on the cards, glitter too, in pink and wrapped in beautiful vellum with a red and white petit string of yarn.  It was fate.  {They have artwork by Parisian based artist Nathalie Lete and are beautiful -- her other work is beautiful too.  Check it out here.  And some work she has done for Anthropologie here.}

So what was once simple.


Is now adorned.  
 
 
 
 
I then felt compelled to create a whole holiday dining room nook. 

With comfy chairs and plush blankets, it's perfect to curl up with magazines by the tree with a glass of wine.  And I'm all ready for a dinner party. 

 

 
 
 {Yes, I did get a chuckle out of having the white elephant as the only thing under the tree so far...}

And everything went with my wreath from last year!
 Why not put it on the back of your door so we can enjoy it!  {and the star wreath hanger has a star on the front of the door to be festive for our neighbors but not annoying festive :)}

Happy Holidays, everyone!
