Christmas and the reindeer

Inspiration, Occasions and Holidays | 21. Dec, 2011 by Ludmila | 3 Comments

There’s a tight connection between these two – have you noticed? Of course you have, a reindeer has been the symbol of a Christmas for a very long time now. I must say, when I see a reindeer next to a Christmas tree I instantly feel so much joy and holiday cheer and I know it wouldn’t be the same without the reindeer part. So no matter the style you’re going with this Christmas, put there a cute reindeer (plastic, paper – it really isn’t important) and you’ll add to your holiday even more festive vibes!

Christmas mania

Inspiration, Interior Design, Occasions and Holidays | 28. Nov, 2011 by Ludmila | 1 Comment

Or should I say Christmania? I have to confess, although last week I said why hurry to winter holidays, this week I’m quite hooked on everything Christmas related. This was always my weakness – baubles, glittery decoration, the tree, the presents – all this magic puts me on a very festive mode (which I’m in these days). I keep seeing how people decorate this year their Christmas tree and guess what, looks to me the main colors are pretty much the same like last year’s palette – mint, teal, silver (check my last year’s post here), although the glamorous golden doesn’t look bad either.

Here are some images from Emily Henderson‘s holiday guide (LOVE it, by the way!):

Color me pretty {holiday style}

Color+Inspiration, Inspiration, Occasions and Holidays | 20. Dec, 2010 by Ludmila | 6 Comments

Christmas is right around the corner and I know how stressful last minute decorating might be. So I’m here again, with my two cents and the hope to give you an idea or three. Luckily, I’ve got some help from Leslie and Holly (two amazing women who are simply fabulous, motivating and inspiring to no end! p.s. see my interview with Holly here) and the always gorgeous Color me pretty posts on decor8. While browsing through that loveliness the other day I spotted some Christmas inspired posts, perfectly styled by Leslie who used different color schemes to create various holiday inspired looks for your home. I selected three color palettes and I do believe they’ll leave you speechless and overwhelmed with prettiness (that’s what they did to me!). Enjoy, but don’t forget to check Color me pretty on decor8 in its full glory, so many wonderful images (I adore Leslie and this column!).
