winter table

a winter tablescape so soft it whispers. it looks like it would be such a magical setting for a big gathering 

friends and family this holiday season. the white & blue seem an unexpected but welcome choice. 

 I especially love how stunning it looks with the evergreen tree at the corner of the table

flowers for friday

i am starting to design my first wedding of this season. i have been thinking a lot oabout how different textures layered one on top of the other add such stunning visual interest, even when punctuated only by one or a few blooms.

I am struck by how well sarah winward accomplishes this in the beautiful arrangement pictured here. to check out more of her gorgeous arrangements go here.
