xmas home

so less then a week till santa comes..and i have done no
chrissy posts( or finished my shopping)! Xmas has certainly snuck up on me this year


On Christmas day a table is set beneath this beautiful old sequoia tree to celebrate Christmas dinner ... 
a wreath of Boston ivy, decorated with ornamental cabbages and flowers hangs simply from her trunk.

 I love the rustic cottage on the property, which the family spends the summer in ... just gorgeous in it's simplicity.

Black and white help to balance the green which could be way over powering on it's own...both glamourous and fresh

while looking for pics for this post, there seems to be  a common thread to achieve balance and harmony
with emerald green You need the grounding  colours of black and white to pull this look together
the emerald green pops out to create a fresh visual delight
For a truly glamourous bold interior the use of magenta and gold takes a room to a whole other level

where will you be using pantone's colour of the year???
For those who need a simple low cost way of introducing this colour into your home, look no further
then your garden...big bold leafy foliage placed in a beautiful cut glass vase will get you the chic look
without effecting your bank balance!x
