The holidays are fast approaching, and we've even had a snow day already in Virginia (not at all typical for us) but it made things feel all nice and … [Read more...]

It's just a little over two weeks until Thanksgiving (what?!) and unlike most years, we're going to be guests rather than hosting a big group at our house. Part of the reason is that we're still living in our temporary rental cottage, and while it's darling, the dining room only seats … [Read more...]

If you saw Amy's beautiful fall table in this post, then you won't be surprised that I'm … [Read more...]

I have a fall tablescape to share today. I am not sure it's perfectly normal to design a whole table around these copper wine glasses, but in this situation, that is exactly what I did. I created a simple but elegant fall tablescape that would be perfect for Thanksgiving or fall … [Read more...]

Thanksgiving means gathering friends and family around the table to eat, laugh and talk but what if you don't have family close by? Or what if you have friends you enjoy so much you want to actually celebrate holidays together? The idea of a 'Friendsgiving," a more casual celebration of … [Read more...]

Today I thought I'd give you a mini-tour of our dining room dressed up for fall. Since my decor is rather neutral anyway, it's so easy just to tuck a few faux pumpkins and gourds into the nooks and crannies. On the table, I don't like to put away my blue and white dishes, so I just … [Read more...]

Happy Thanksgiving, friends!

It seems like a good day to talk about food and decorating, after this long election season we need a bit of the lighter things in life, am I right?!? I promised when I launched The Holiday Planner that we wouldn't skip completely over Thanksgiving and go right to Christmas, so today I wanted to … [Read more...]
