SILVER AND GOLD IN THE FOYER

This year, I chose to go with Silver and Gold

in the foyer.

If you are like me,

you add something, then another, then another

until you decide, "it's done!"

The vignette sort of evolves......

This is my newest addition to the "Santa's!"
He is a rather fashionable fellow isn't he?

I have had the reindeer for years

and they certainly were the perfect touch

for this dapper Santa!

The embellished christmas trees are BEAUTIFUL!

They come on automatically in the evening

and cast off the softest blue hues.

The wreath is also a new addition

which I had actually planned to use

as a centerpiece during Thanksgiving.

I loved the muted Champagne colors

and it took me a few days to decide if it 

was right for this vignette.

I LOVE sugared fruit at the holidays....it's elegant!

The vintage sheet music

this Santa is carrying is

"It Came Upon a Midnight Clear"...

which brought to mind memories

of Grandmother Estelle playing carols

on her grand piano.....

Now, this darling snowman is from
the Dennis Basso collection....
how darling is he?

And....oh how I love this new Santa...
also from the Dennis Basso home collection!

Well, I changed out the wreath and opted
for a lighted snowy wreath.
I had purchased this for the front door,
but realized it was a plug-in lighted wreath,
so I changed my plans and placed it on the foyer table.
NOW! It's complete and we love it!
It certainly is a winter wonderland!
