Holiday decor

Welcoming the holidays with a wreath,



inside or outside the home



is perfect for the beginning of fall season

right through the holidays.



On this traditional style wreath

I especially liked using rose hips instead of the

traditional berries

and the quail rather than a dove.



For a coordinating look in the dining room,

cut a burlap runner and layer it over a white tablecloth

then create a garland down the center

with similar greenery and embellishment.



Consider embellishing with burlap roses with pine cone centers,

and quail eggs with found feathers.



Holiday decorating continues around the cottage...

  1. Hi Paulette, I love your door wreaths, the top one has a California holiday feel to it. It reminded me of my front door wreath a few years ago. A mother bird made a nest in it. I couldn't figure out why I kept hearing birds. After about a week, I realize that every time I opened my front door, they were actually in my living room.
