Joyful wishes to you~

Sharing Rachel's holiday home with you today~ 
 

Glittered silhouettes of my grandsons hang on the tree; and more special touches - like their photo 'framed' in the jeweled wreath

 Canvas bag with French graphic hung in the entry, along with their stockings~

 Little chalkboard clips identified the stockings~

 Easy, make you stop and look touches: French botanical print on the wall inside the wreath

 The 'clipboard' reflected in the mirror holds their holiday greetings - easy to browse~

 The brightest color used? Simple aqua tapers~

 Each cabinet top was layered with beautiful finds~

Wreath it - love~

 Glittery garlands in jars

 Botanical everywhere - note the tin bird clip!

 Special little packages - while wrapping, she remembered having an earring that was just perfect~

 This package is wrapped in a colorful magazine page!

 Comfortably entertained; she makes it all seem so easy.....

 More simple touches: two glittered birds held a baker's twine garland across the buffet table. (Note the slight tear in the paper cloth - behind the bird?  Two little boys....)

 Who doesn't like a swizzle stick - fun!

Cupcakes baked right in the liners, glaze drizzled on, top with crushed candy cane.  Who likes chocolate and peppermint?

 A nice deep kitchen sill holds a lantern frame

 Vintage postcard inside a glass lamp base

 Paperwhites in the dining room window

 Ooh - Rachel always gives me ideas.  Gray chalkboard paint!  Expect to see it at the shop soon~

 'Simple' - tucked everywhere

Wishing you calm, joyful days this season.  As for me, I'm 'back in the saddle' today - the Atelier is open today through Saturday (Th-Fr-Sa, December 27-28-29 - we're probably closing early on Sat the 29th. ~TERESA
