WHILE VISIONS OF SUGAR-PLUMS DANCED IN THEIR HEADS!!!

2009-11-14T07:55:00.001-08:00

Rather than just suggest using or purchasing the festive trees in different colors I got some pictures for proof that they are pretty darn cute in any hue. (Target Color: Bubble Gum Pink and Cream). Example 1: For a little girls nursery I want to take this set of 3 trees (2 pink and 1 cream) and put them on a 6 drawer dresser. (Preferrably a vintage or flea market find that you redo in a white shabby chic color and sand a little off on the corners to expose the wood underneath. Then on the top place the 3 trees staggered in the corner with a cute metal lamp with a drum shade and a framed photo of your newborn above. ( Im kinda a visual person). Example 2: Think "Cindy Lou Hoo" (from The Grinch Who Stole Christmas). Pop the movie in or google images... the colors used through out were amazing. Who says you can only use the traditional darker evergreen hue and berry red with accents of silver and gold???? Dude do what you like. People will be jealous once they see your colorfully adorned home or office. I know I am not the only one that watched that movie and wished I could transform my house to look like that for a month. The bubble gum pink trees shown above mixed in with some classic red and vibrant relish color green would look so darling for your centerpiece at the traditional holiday dinners that are quickly approaching. Or mix up the fireplace mantle, holiday village, nativity set, etc. etc. Again this is just my advise, but think of it as you have so little to lose (because your old holiday decor and standard colors are going to be in the basement in rubbermaid totes if you don't like it), and so so much to gain.

An Oldie But a Goodie

Has anyone out there ever found a photo of 2 random people but just felt so moved by it. Well these two really are not that random for me (My grandma and her father on her wedding day). I went to clean out some of my grandma's old photos and feel for this photo. It's a classic I love it.

Numbers Put to Good Use

2009-11-11T07:59:00.000-08:00

Most associate the use of numbers with money, age, their kindergartners math lesson, the clock on the wall, how fast your car was traveling when you got that ticket, etc, etc, but what about the thought of numbers as design. I found this photo from the May/June Issue of the Kansas City Home Design Magazine and feel in love with it. But this could be used in so many different environments: (in the nursery not only would it give a unique touch to the rm. but it would also stimulate your little ones learning, or take your favorite flea market find and jazz it up with some awesome hardware). There are so many things you can do with this idea, for more thoughts check out the design*sponge blog where I saw a feature for this idea on it as well.

festive trees

2009-11-11T06:37:00.000-08:00

Just in time for the holidays I love. love. love. to use these trees for garlands, centerpieces, dresser or console table decor, and even intertwine them through your holiday villages. Visit my esty shop for more items and photos: pinkbeeb0.etsy.com
