Are you ready to see my new foyer colors?
It has been a long time coming!
and truth is...
I still have a long way to go,
but, Christmas wasn't waiting so I am on break:-)
the new wall color is Pink Granite
by Martha Stewart...
the color is moody..
sometimes grey, sometimes pink..
the wall below and behind the stairs is the same color..
the woodwork is now Deep Cream
by Ralph Lauren...
the room is a shockingly different than last Christmas..
I wrapped the stairs in more Laurel garland
from the garden...
it is surprisingly fast to hand make garland,
and Laurel leaves are
easier on your hands than pine...
our little tree this year,
is a simple untrimmed pine...
a bell for Clarence is always a must...
a hand full of small vintage balls,
simple and sweet...
old fashioned strands of tinsel are also a must!
I am usually a glob it on girl,
but I restrained...
simple tissue paper wrapping,
with sprigs of last years Lavender,
and fresh Pine..
Pine and Lavender are my new
favorite fragrance pairing!
twinkle, twinkle...
Tonight I am joining...
and
Thanks For Visiting Me Today!

Beautiful decorations. I love your paint colors. I was excited to see that you incorporated lavender. I have lavender in my Christmas decor too.
Your new paint colors are stunning especially with that gorgeous garland you made and I love the simplicity of that tree.
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!
So pretty! I love your garland on the stair rail and the tree is just sweet.
The stairs look amazing! I love the before compared to now.
I love your tree, not the usual huge and fluffy, it's so perfect. Your photos look beautiful!

I really like the banisters this year. It looks so fresh, clean, and light. Merry Christmas.♥♫
The stairs look beautiful and the garland is wonderful, the scene is "Picture, Perfect"
Oh my goodness, Bella! No wonder it's taken so long to complete that job! I can't even imagine painting all of those railings and posts! lol! But it turned out just beautiful! What a huge, wonderful difference. :)

Bella, I have been away from blogland the last month or so (with only a couple of posts & not many visits) but, I miss my friends so much! I had to come visit & see what you've been up to. LOVE the mantle all decked out. And your simple tree is elegant. I think you are on the right track for sure. ENJOY! Merry Christmas! HUGS!

How nice to see your new colors! The white is YUMMY!!!! I love love how you are decorating this year! That wispy tree is dreamy luscious. And your close up photos are so so pretty. Just delightful!xx
It's all so beautiful Bella, like your name xx jeanetteann
Oh it looks so pretty. I love your tree. That garland is different, I love the green and white and of course no one can go wrong with white lights.
I went and looked at how it used to look in that corner and I just love the color changes. Great job, such a difference.
Completely love everything about the look. The wall color is ethereal and wonderful, the white is perfect, and the simple little Charlie Brown tree, with minimal fluff, is so so pretty and natural and peaceful. The greens on the garland are a heavenly match to your wall color... it's all fabulous...

Such gorgeous simplicity with that tree and little chair. Love it!
Your stairway is beautiful also!
Absolutely beautiful...pinning away!
wow...it is beautiful! Painting my stairway (my newel post is so similar to yours) is one my one-day-get-brave-and-just-do-it list! I'm gonna show this to husband.
Merry Christmas!
