Urban Nest

Holiday decorating is still in full swing here, and this week I added a few fun flourishes to the kitchen.  I made 2 rectangular boxwood wreaths at the Deck the Halls event that Stephanie told us about.  It was a fantastic event, by the way, and I will definitely be there next year!  I decided to hang the wreaths in the kitchen, and I love how they look on our two windows.  

I added some glass balls and glittered pine cones for some sparkle and color.  I decided to go with the turquoise and kelly green scheme I had been considering for the dining room (I have a new plan for the dining room – more on that later). 

The pine cones were fun to do, even though my kitchen and I were covered with glitter when I was done.  For such a simple detail, they’ve really added a festive punch – even my husband commented on them.

The kitchen sink got a little love with it’s own wreath, pine-scented candle, and a few more pine cones on my Pinkkiss Pottery spoon rest. The final detail is a glass ornament perched next to my dishes.  Now I just need to finish the living room and dining room!
