A Christmas Vignette

This is the beautiful cover of the November - December 2023 edition of Flower Magazine. I especially like the platter filled with pomegranates.

The Chinoiserie Fireplace

Amanda Lindroth

For those of us who live in the South or tropical venues, we may choose a more decorative approach to the fireplace if we have one but tend not to use it the majority of the year.

Here Amanda Lindroth uses a collection of seashells and her wonderful wicker pagodas. This is the last day to take 25% of these and her accessories and linens. My favorites are the pagodas, the pineapple, and the tulipiere.

A Chinoiserie Vignette

This is such a pretty vignette - a gorgeous pair of shell mirrors, blue and white Chinese porcelain, a blush pink velvet tufted sofa, orchids, and the centerpiece - a giant faux clamshell filled with tropical fruit. BTW, lemons, limes, and oranges can be kept at room temperature for about a week, but pineapples just 2 or 3 days.
