Eclectic Holiday Decorating Tips

By lovefeasttable on December 19, 2011

Holiday decorating for us is usually all about pulling bits and pieces to create a unique look. For us, we don't decorate with a "from the box" look. We like each year to be unique and eclectic. We will pull items from different seasons, like these velvet, Plush Pumpkins. We know they are pumpkins, but the fact they are made with a lush velvet, makes them a great addition to any festive holiday display. One of the things we try and keep in mind when decorating is using items with different textures and made from different … [Read more...]

By Chris Ann on December 7, 2011 6 Comments

I promised a glitter project last week ~ do you have your glue bottles ready? This is a fun DIY Project that will possibly get you back in touch with your inner finger-painting child. It also a great gift idea or decor idea for the holidays! I was first inspired to do this project when I purchased a "glitterized" vintage picture at an antique store and bakery over the summer. I found it at "Kathie's Finds" in Wayzata, MN. I love it so much that I made it the centerpiece of my mantel. Glitterized Vintage Pictures have … [Read more...]

Just Because

By Kristin on October 17, 2011 4 Comments

Just because he loves me, he brought these flowers home. He bought them at Costco and brought them home in their cellophane bundle. They were beautiful, but I decided to add a little more love to this bouquet of fall splendor. First I trimmed each stem, at different lengths, building an arrangement of varying heights. Then I took an empty, large glass jar (I think it once was an over-sized jar of sun dried tomatoes) and placed the freshly trimmed flowers inside. I took one of my vintage tins that was just a bit … [Read more...]

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom ~ Marcel Proust. Welcome Friends & Fall!

Taking Your Work Outside

By Chris Ann on June 8, 2011 6 Comments

Many of you have heard the expression in decorating, "bring the outside in" to breath life into your home's rooms. Well, recently I tried the reverse, bring the inside out. The other day (before our recent historical Minneapolis heatwave) the day was mildly warm and sunny. The kind of day where summer greets you with possibilities. The flowers in my garden were just starting to show their potential. The lilacs were wafting lovely scents in the air. This was no day to be working inside. Much of … [Read more...]
