Today, I am featuring my foyer….
…..although you will only see one side of it as the large tree is not up yet.
This year, I tried to incorporate a lighter color palette…
…..rather than the traditional red and green that I used the foyer in previous years.
How can I describe the “theme”…maybe a Southern Woodland Theme…
…..is there such a theme…did I just make that up?
This owl was on my mantel last year…
This year he is comfortably perched on a bed of cotton atop a candlestick…
…..and his friend perched below.
I have added my cotton to lend to the “Southern feel”….
and added “sparkly evergreen” picks to the sconces…
Lighted twigs are placed in the white vase…
I added evergreen and white poinsettia floral picks at the base of the candlesticks…
I had won a Christmas decorating contest last year and received some beautiful ribbon…
…..resembling birch bark.
I decided to wrap packages with this beautiful ribbon…
…..and use cotton to make “bows”
Great idea if I say so myself!!! 🙂
I wrapped more packages with craft paper and the birch bark ribbon…
…..and placed them in a basket under the table.
So, that is the one side of my foyer decked for the holidays…
…..hope you enjoyed it!!!
So what did you think of my “cotton bow”???
