I was born here.
A sunshine state baby, while my parents and all of the rest of my family hail from Virginia.
The love the Blue Ridge mountains, while i love the blue water. They can keep their mountains (it's a nice place to visit as the saying goes) but i will keep my beach. And i can think of nothing prettier than a low country town decorated up for the holidays.
I will take Savannah, Tybee, St. Simons, or Charleston. I will use shells and sand coral while they decorate with snow and icicles.
Thinking about a couple of different ideas. Using my black PB lanterns from Homegoods on the front porch, with my starfish and some evergreen.
Maybe move the pre-lit dining room tree to the lanai and put a live evergreen in a galvanized pot in it's place and decorate with some burlap and starfish and shells and i'm thinking feathers. Is that crazy? Is burlap overdone? I'm thinking pheasant feathers - natural colors like creams, browns, sages.....not sure yet.
Anyway, off to bed. We're still in Tallahassee for the holiday. Heading home in the morning. Enjoy the rest of your weekend girls :)

Hi Sheri,
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw the first picture, I thought it was your hallway!
Thought you'd like to know! Hope you're having the loveliest of weekends.

Pretty, pretty pics. I'm about as landlocked as they come here in north Texas, but I do have shells in the kid's bathroom.
ReplyDeleteLove the new header!
These are all fabulous images. I love to see the coastal influence in Christmas decorations.
