Renovating and decorating our new/old house, a cozy cape cod built in 1940. It won't happen overnight, so join me for the journey.
After trying a couple different vases and such, I ended up using a thrift store urn I found for under a dollar.
The buffet is a work in progress...I'm still messing around with it, but the branches will stay. I don't think I will want to take them down when Christmas is over!

Those ornaments are darling!!! And your home looks beautiful in these pictures! My house always feels so bare too after the holiday decor comes down!
ReplyDeleteThe ornaments and branches are so lovely; I would leave everything up 'til March if I could! Alas I am behind this year getting everything up, so it will hang around a little bit longer in the new year!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!!! I just love the branches. Perhaps you could re-use them as a spring motif?
ReplyDeleteGreat idea Caroline!
ReplyDeletethose look fabulous, londen! i have my advent calendar on branches like that, too and love the look of the branches in the house- so airy and natural!
ReplyDeleteI love it! I plan to paint some branches to use this weekend. I agree you could repurpose for Easter. It would be cute with eggs hanging from it.
ReplyDeleteThose branches with the silhouette ornaments on them are SO fun. Everything looks great! :)
ReplyDeletevery lovely. in the past i've used branches to decorate for christmas and every year would paint them a different color. white, gold, silver and one year i glittered them. i think they are v beautiful.

I love the branches and ornaments. I wonder how you are keeping the branches in the urn...floral foam? I'd love to do this...it's beautiful and natural! :-)

ReplyDeleteI am so happy you stopped by my blog today since it allowed me to discover yours - it's fantastic! I love the design and am now a new follower. I'm a chicago suburbanite too! Happy holidays.
ReplyDeleteI love the branches, they look so clean and light. I'd be tempted to keep them out year-round too! The silhouettes are a perfect touch.
ReplyDeleteI would keep the branches up year round! It looks great, London and I love those silhouette ornaments. You've done a beautiful job with your home.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE everything about your buffet area! I think the branches with ornaments would be lovely after Christmas!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I received the frog tape package yesterday. I was not expecting there to be so much and am so excited to try it out! Thanks again!
Just wanted to say Good Morning! I love the winter branches. I've used some branches, even painting a few white, with my topiaries - so fun!
ReplyDeleteNow this is the prettiest vignette I have seen this season so far!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend sister stick lover :) I think you buffet looks great and I can't believe you found that urn in a thrift store. It's perfect. I'm planning to keep my sticks around after the holidays too.
