My Christmas decorating this year is on the minimalist side. Some greens cut from the yard, candy canes with blue wool bows and some shells are what I came up with this year. I had grand plans, but in the end simple won. It usually does.
I draped some woven place mats over the backs of the white chairs to add some color.
Somehow blue kept coming up in the color mix. It is not a traditional Christmas color. It just sort of happened and I went with it.
I’m calling it Americana meets the seaside …
and a bright green cupboard.
It’s eclectic.

It’s perfect!
love all the greenery- so pretty! my dining room post is coming tomorrow, too!
This is perfect! I have declared this year a “simple” year, and hope I can follow through. I just discovered your blog, and have loved everything you have done! I look forward to gleaning more ideas:) Thanks so much for sharing!!
If I do any decorating at all this year it will definitely be a minilimist style. I like your idea of fresh greens, and your green cupboard is still one of my all time favorites!
How gorgeous! I love the candle centerpiece that you made, and the berries in the pitchers are so pretty, too. Thanks for sharing the inspiration! (Your wall of plates is amazing, by the way!)
Beautiful. Just beautiful. Less is certainly more, and I love this. I have not done much decorating at all, but have been thinking simple, simple, simple for days. You just can’t go wrong. I love the candy cane tree. Brava!

I like it! Your arrangement of plates is wonderful.
I love the tabletop tree. I remember the plate wall too. Still love that too.
Everything is so pretty and I love your plate collection. Thanks for linking to the Open House party.
I love what you’ve done in your dining room. The greenery looks so pretty in your containers and the pop of red on the backs of the chairs are perfect.
