I'm Dreaming of A Green & White Christmas


Well, it's finally here, The most wonderful time of the year :)  So that means it's time to deck those halls!  I must confess, I've been in love with green and white, green & cream, green & silver, and green & gold color schemes for a while now. There's something so soothing and ethereal about this combination.  I suppose it also has something to do with the fact that I'm a floral designer and for us, it all starts with green :)



Nothing says welcome like this cream door all decked out in greenery :) The wreath is made with reindeer moss and the swag is made with evergreen boughs.  I just love this.

Need a green and silver inspiration for your table, look no further than this setting. Lady Slipper orchids, green & white roses, & kale bring magic to this green, white, & silver
tablescape.



Both real and wax evergreens make a serene Christmas forest scene.  I love these candles and have some very similar.  I can remember my mother having candles like this when I was growing up.


I love this green, cream, & silver crudite tray.  What could be more green than vegetables and an herb dip :)



An assortment of green and white ornaments on a white painted branch, how lovely.


Mercury glass adds sparkle to these evergreens.  I love the white twinkle lights to catch the light of the silver.  The contrast of the silver and rustic greenery is perfect.



A white gumdrop wreath hung by a sage striped ribbon is sure to bring visions of sugarplums to your head.


I just think these green glittered birds perched atop birch wrapped favor tubes are adorabale :)
