A lovely store in Clovis, California |
Are you feeling the need
for some white
in your decorating this season?
Some years I like a lot of reds and greens,
less often I go with blues and silver,
but in recent years I am really liking
silver and/or gold
mixed with white.
A friend of mine, Kathy, has the most beautiful house,
all whites and creams most of the year
with a scattering of
lovely houseplants adding in green.
She and I both like the Shabby Chic look
so we have pinks scattered in our pictures
and pink roses on our china.
I have often thought that her home and gardens
would look lovely in shelter magazines,
but she is pretty private.
Today I thought I would share
just a few photos with you of her
amazingly beautiful home
at Christmas time…
Each Christmas she adds in some red and it just pops!
This is her home below:

Sometimes don’t you just get the urge
to go all out
and decorate every little surface?
This is how I feel after visiting her home.
I get totally inspired
to fill every nook and cranny with baubles,
and ornaments, and crystals…
