Holiday DIY Tablescapes

11/07/2016 By Bre

It’s no secret around here that I love creating tablescapes! You’ve heard me say it before, and I will probably say it again. Which is why I am so excited to share a NEW mini-course created just for Holiday DIY Tablescapes, and just in time with the holidays right around the corner. This instantly available course was created by Jen Wagner, and is available through Jeanne Oliver. You may remember a course I taught with Jeanne and other friends all about the Art of Home. One thing I know for sure, is that the course Jeanne provides on her website are from the most thoughtful, creative and genuine women, who truly want to inspire and help others create! It’s a beautiful network of artists, and this course happens to be particularly close to home. There is nothing I love doing more than creating tablescapes, but trust me, I know for some the thought of it is daunting, or perhaps even un-inspiring. The good news is it doesn’t have to be that way! Whether you’ve dabbled in it before, are completely new to the concept, or love creating inviting tables for your guests to come and sit at, I think you will love this course.

One of the first place’s I go to decorate for the seasons is our dining room table. It’s a great way to add a seasonal touch without having to change out the bulk of my decor. I know sometimes figuring out just what to put on your dining room table can be tricky. So today I’m sharing a simple fall tablescape idea that will last through Thanksgiving. I’ve also teamed up with some friends who are sharing more easy ideas to decorate for fall with.

When I think about gathering around the table, it’s a tradition. One that can sometimes get brushed aside in the busy schedules, but one that has great importance and a huge impact. It makes life more meaningful. If you ask both my kids what their favorite “family time” activity is, they will tell you – gathering around a table and sharing a meal. I’m glad that it’s meaningful to them, and impacts them in such a way.

Easter Inspiration

I always feel a huge sigh of relief when the word Easter starts making it’s way into conversation. It’s like that light at the end of the tunnel of a long dark winter. Thankfully this winter hasn’t been anything close to what it normally is, but once Easter arrives I can usually stop holding my breath that a possible snow storm could happen. Yes we may get a flurry or two, I’ve had lovely wet snow fall on my birthday which is the first week of May, but nothing to worry about it’s usually back in the 60’s in the following couple of days. So with Easter, comes my sigh of relief …

How to Style a Coffee Table

01/30/2016 By Bre

It’s no secret around here that I love to create tablescapes. I create a new one for each season, and sometimes multiple ones in between. I even hosted a thanksgiving tablescape tour this past fall, and had a bunch of my friends join in with me on the fun and share their tablescapes. While creating tablescapes are fun, and truly a way I express my creative art, styling a coffee table is much different. When I create a tablescape, I’m envisioning a space that is inviting and interesting for my guests. A place that is elegant and beautiful for all to sit and enjoy. However, for most of them they are temporary. So their design can be a bit more elaborate because it doesn’t need to withstand everyday life. Coffee tables on the other hand, aren’t meant to be grand or inviting, but we don’t want them to be boring either? So where do we draw the line on what’s too much, and what’s enough when it comes to styling a coffee table? Today I’m going to share with you my go-to’s for styling a coffee table, that I hope with help you as well. When I’m not decorating for a holiday, primarily christmas, I have some hands down accessories I go to every time I style our coffee table. Some items could be considered seasonal, but for the most part theses pieces will last year round.
