As I said last week,
I am shaking it up a bit for Christmas...
using fresh greenery..
over the weekend I made this fresh swag
with Laurel from the garden...
and today decked out my mantle...
fresh pine saplings tucked in urns
bookend the mantle vignette...
I wanted my vignette
to have a Christmas Storybook feel...
a warmly lit cottage in the wood
felt like a good place to start...
this sweet reproduction Victorian scrap ornament
is my favorite...
a whimsical delight...
do you believe in storybook magic?
I do...
sailing silently...
lights out...
and goodnight,
sweet dreams my lovely friends...
isn't that is how all happy stories end?
Tonight I am linking to...
and
Thanks for stopping by today!

Your laurel swag is my favorite part of the entire room...probably your entire cottage! The fact that you made it out of laurel from your own garden just woo's me. lovely.
It sure is storybook magical! So nicely done:)
