A Breath of Spring

Faux Maple Tree

I was in Target yesterday and their garden shop was open here with lots of beautiful faux trees. I have added several artificial trees here at CCC and absolutely love them. Faux trees are like artificial Christmas trees - both have come so far in recent years and look so real! If you are in the throws of winter where you live, what better way to add a breath of spring to your home?

Autumn and Chinoiserie DIY

Jonathan Adler

 I have shared this one before, but it is always so popular that it bears repeating. Get a pair of these fantastic and cheap Chinese Chippendale planters at Home Depot available in both 14" and 18." Spray paint them orange - I like Rustoleum Orange Gloss. Use them indoors with a pair of fiddle leaf fig trees, palms, or ficus, or outdoors with mums or boxwoods. This is fall decorating with Chinoiserie Chic style.
