Holiday Greens

I love surrounding myself with real greenery this time of year. The fake stuff has its place, but a real evergreen wreath on the front door just cannot be beat.

I found really nice greenery at Trader Joe's this year! And it was all such a great price, too.

The swags came complete with burlap ribbons. Easy!

Just look at those juniper berries! Stunning!

I collected a lot of greenery from our own yard, too.

Sometimes, I will look outside and find a fallen evergreen branch. I suspect that Jemma is doing some pruning. She's such a helpful gardener.

I grab greens, add some fallen pine cones, and instantly I have winter woodland Christmas!

I think the front porch still needs something. Maybe a few pops of red. A nice wool blanket for the rockers? Maybe a red pillow or two? Hmm. I'll have to go hunting in my stash today!

Indoors, I added this sweet smelling rosemary tree to the tabletop. Simple and so pretty!

I like my holiday decorating best when it is simple and real. A little greenery, a holiday mug, and a book for inspiration.

Blessings, cafe friends!
