~~~Decorating My Best Friends House~~~

Good Saturday morning my friends! It has finally stopped raining around here but it is COOOLD! The sun is shining but it is 36 and dropping:( I am NOT a cold/winter person at all but I know that some of you have temps in the single digits so I won't complain:) I went and decorated my best friends house the other day so thought I would share it with you. She has a beautiful home. As you can see, she has tall celings in her living room so I gave the illusion of a higher tree with some red and gold sticks. We also used red poinsettias, white and cream berries, red and gold ornaments and some beautiful leaf stems for filler.

Here are the leaf stems and some sugared grapes.

We also do her stair railing and there is a LOT of railing! Large bows, sugared fruits and poinsettias here too.

it goes up....

and across the loft.

She found these gorgeous beaded pillows at Pier One. I just love them.

We aslo did her mantle, of course! The deer are waiting for some poinsettias to join them. We actually went out after we were done and got them.

She found this gold tree at Home Goods a few years ago.

We wrap her candlesticks with gold berry garland and they are topped with sparkly gold pillars.

She also found this gold and silver ball garland at Home Goods.

This pretty Santa sits on a small table and you get a glimpse into the sun room.

I should have gotten a close up of the tree skirt, it is really pretty!

I put this arrnagement together from things we had left over:)

There is a ledge that goes down the hall from the front door and around to the kitchen, so that is decorated with their village. We also found a GORGEOUS sleigh with Santa for the other ledge while at HG. It is beautiful but I didn't get a picture of it.

I love this piece in the sun room.

His and her chairs in the sun room, facing a TV in the corner.

She found these pillows that are PERFECT!!!

I just took these shots to show her mirrored backsplash. I love, LOVE it. That is why I wanted the mirroed backsplash down stairs in our bar. It really opens up the space.
