Deck the Halls

The snow here in DC yesterday definitely helped get me in the holiday spirit! Most of my day was spent decorating the apartment. Even though I will be going home for Christmas I still insisted we have a live tree; I just can't imagine not having one! My inspiration for my holiday decor was actually found in Good Housekeeping.

I loved the apple greens and white poinsettias they featured here:




After finding some glittering gold pear ornaments in Home Goods I adopted the theme of "a partridge in a pear tree" for our tree. It still needs a few finishing touches, but I think it's turned out really well! I'll have to share a pic when it's finished. Hope you're all getting into the holiday spirit!

    and once again, we have the exact same taste in decor!! i did blue, brown, and bronze, but i have the same partridge in a pear tree theme going with mine. i bought a ton of goldleaf pear ornaments at restoration hardware a few years ago and adore them.
