a mood board for christmas - the warmth of red





I had said I wouldn't be doing anything red for Christmas, longing for calm, for sleek looking tones of silver and white.  But yesterday, red got the better of me and I threw together this mood board.   Trying to avoid anything garish I went for tones of red that border on pink, burgundy or even brown.

I used bronze candle holders, tree decorations, old Christmas stockings made from antique tapestry, and two hand painted beautiful silk fans that I found recently and will be listing soon.

What do you think?  Too toned down, or warm and comforting?
Do you plan out your Christmas table, or does it just happen?
I'd love to know what colours you'll be using this year










Another find this week are these little gold edged coupelles for catching the candle wax - love them!







I'm counting on you to tell me when you've had enough of my mood boards!
I'm having fun, so if you don't stop me I'll just keep going until I hear those reindeer bells!

Hope you're having agood weekend
thank you for reading me!
