Christmas Decor Designs

I am booking for Christmas tree & decor services now!!!  We can use your decor and add special touches or start from scratch with any color or theme design.  Check out some of the photos below for a few ideas....

A Simply Southern Christmas Tree -  Burlap,  Fleur De Lis, Mercury Glass and Magnolias.......  

The Mercury Glass and Fleur de lis help to give the tree a beautiful sparkle.  I love using the mercury glass as it is not gold and not  silver.  It is a perfect mix of the two giving the tree a champagne, shimmery,  glow.......

 

      Burlap ribbon and flowers as well as the glittered magnolias give nice texture to the Christmas Tree.  They all help to contribute to a simple and organic Southern Christmas Tree........

    Burlap Wreath........ Accented with a wide shimmery ribbon and a glittered magnolia 

  We hung the wreath over a mirror to give it a special home for the holidays

( this wreath can be used for different seasons/holidays by simply changing out the bow) 

 The final touch for this home was the Burlap stockings trimmed with an off white linen cuff.  I simply added glittered initials to personalize each stocking.

A Formal Christmas Tree    Golden and Bronzed..........

Bronze is a  modern take on the traditional red.  It also helps to give a warm contrast to the bright gold ornaments.  Together these colors create a beautiful, glowing tree.........

 A Traditional Christmas Tree ......... Red and Gold

We used red, gold and glass ornaments from Frontgate as well as a few larger ornament accents from Pier One.  There are  3 different styles of red and gold ribbon with varying widths.  We let it drape and curl down from the topper and throughout the entire tree.   The ribbon softens the tree and gives it such an elegant feel. It also gives the tree more presence and makes it feel fuller...

     

    Tree Topper .... with poinsettias, pine cones and branches with red and gold ribbon.  This tree is actually only a 9 - foot tree but with the topper it is close to 10 1/2.  

        

  

We added red and gold accents throughout with  greenery, ribbon, glass balls and garland to carry our theme throughout the home.  

    We used shatter proof ornaments on the garland as there are small little hands going up and down those             stairs.

A Whimsical Christmas Tree -  RED, SILVER and WHITE and CANDY CANE STRIPES!!!!!

We used red and silver mesh as a bow/topper with long pieces flowing down and meandering through the tree.  This tree has lots of twirly, whimsical decor accents that are placed through out  the tree as well as candy cane and peppermint balls on wire sticks mixed into the topper.  It looks good enough to eat!!!!

   A whimsical center piece made with Nutcrackers, Glass (candy filled) jars and red berry greenery mixed with candy canes and peppermints......

Lets Get Creative!!!! An organized "Craft Room"

Challenge: This craft space needed to serve as storage and work space for a busy, creative family.

Goal:  The primary goal was to implement labeled storage that gave each item a home as well as organize it into zones:

 Books   - Arts/Crafts  - Paper  - Wrapping - School/Office supplies  - Sewing/Knitting 

                                       Before 

All items were removed from craft area and sorted by type.  Once I knew how much of each item, I could create a space plan to accommodate those items and maximize the storage space  

                                                            

                                        After
Zones were created by putting like items together to make it easier for the family to find the items they need as well as return them to their home.  For example, the horizontal stacked trays became home to the different types of paper the client uses.  The containers above the paper with smaller drawers are for small arts/craft items such a goggle eyes and other small craft items.  The top shelf became home to all the family's arts/craft kits - such as beading kits, mosaic, etc.

                                         Before
Client had already purchased storage containers, but they were not storing or organizing efficiently.

                                    


                                        After
Again, All items were removed from closet and sorted and then put into labeled storage containers based on size and type.

The shelf to the right was the perfect depth to store the clients movies so we actually moved them from a box the homeowner was storing.  Now they family can see the videos they have and are more likely to watch them.
                                           

   



                                        Before
                            All books were taken off shelf and sorted by type and size.

                                          After
After the books were sorted and organized by type and size ( ex: board books, chapter books, etc) they were returned to the shelf.  We utilized the top shelf space for the client's mailing and work supplies.  This also kept these items out of reach from little hands.

On the floor, beneath the books, we created 2 storage bins labeled with each child's name.  It creates a quick home for mom to put their school  or art work in and she can go through  it later and decide what she wants to keep.  This will help keep the clutter off the counter space.

                                                             After
