It’s the Monday before Christmas, which means it’s time for our last holiday inspiration board of the season! After the Thanksgiving jewel tones, the icy splendor of blue and gold, and the softly shining pastels, we have this quiet palette of pinecone brown and sage green. Beautiful for holiday decorations, gorgeous for a winter wedding. Happy Monday!

Time for another Christmas inspiration board! After last week’s neutrals, I wanted to do something colorful, and I think this one fits the bill! I love the soft take on red (pink and coral), and love that it’s mixed with pale blue, jade, aqua, and gold.

It snowed this weekend! In North Carolina! In December! Granted, nothing stuck, but it was still exciting for this New England girl. On top of that, I had a weekend filled with Christmas shopping, Christmas carols, gift wrapping, Christmas movies, and hot chocolate (and a trip to the flea market!): there was no other option but to break out the winter inspiration boards today! I hope you love this one — I love that it incorporates rustic materials, like pinecones, but that it’s still elegant and formal. The icy blue and gold palette helps with that.

Thanksgiving is this Thursday!! So many things to be excited about: seeing family, a short work week, delicious food, a chance to make a pretty table setting, and an opportunity to stop and give thanks. This board encapsulates most of that for me, with a color palette inspired by lovely Eddie Ross centerpieces!
