Christmas

CHRISTMAS WISH LIST:: DESIGN BOOKS

December 16, 2018 by Denise McGaha

The countdown is ON!!  Only 8 more days until Christmas and I still have a few gifts to purchase before everyone arrives.  If you are like me,  having a stash of gifts perfect for anyone is a major need as the days close in on Christmas.  My favorite gift to give is a beautiful book! Often I will lean toward design (shocker I know) but I also love art, cooking and more.  I like to make sure they have beautiful covers and spines so they look great displayed in the library or on a coffee table or shelf.  My collection is vast and I have also started placing a new book in a place of prominence each weekend so my family and guests can peruse it while sitting in our living room or sitting at the bar while we prepare dinner.  Follow me on Instagram to see which book is on our book stand this week.

I recently created my own shop on Amazon to curate the books I have ordered or have received through the year.  Go take a look and wrap up your holiday gift giving now.  They will arrive in time for Christmas giving (and with free shipping if you have a Prime membership) and you can even have them wrapped!!

Happy Shopping!

FRONTGATE TABLE DESIGN – PART 4

December 11, 2018 by Denise McGaha

It’s almost time to start setting the tables for the holidays!  Only 14 days until CHRISTMAS!!!  I know, I know.  That stresses me out a bit, but I have already planned what table settings I will be using when we entertain.  We always host Christmas breakfast at our house, so it’s a casual and fun affair with several traditions, one of which is Scott’s popovers with strawberry butter.  We also have a mix of dishes I like to use and now my daughter is in on planning our table as well, which is so much fun!

Today I am sharing the fourth and last table design that I did with Frontgate. This design is more of a traditional Christmas themed table. Together with the red dinnerware, Christmas trees, and reindeer, it ties the whole holiday theme together.

I hope you enjoy this table as much as the others. As always, you can shop the table by clicking the items under each item or you can click the images of the items at the bottom of the post!  It’s not too late to add a few new and special dishes to your holiday entertaining.  But hurry!  Only 14 days until Christmas!!

Hi Friends!

Can you believe it is the week after Thanksgiving?! The time has been flying this year! Today, we are talking about another Frontgate tablescape. This theme is far from traditional. It has a more of a beachy, casual theme if you are wanting more of a relaxed look for your holiday table this year. As always, if you love the items, they are linked below the images as well as at the end of the post! Enjoy!

FRONTGATE TABLE DESIGN – PART 2

November 15, 2018 by Denise McGaha

Thanksgiving is only a week away and I am planning my holiday tablescapes this weekend to help make entertaining a breeze!  I hope you all enjoyed the first tablescape I posted last week.

As I mentioned, I had the pleasure of working with Frontgate to create 4 beautiful tablescapes for the holidays! I will be posting one a week and today I am featuring the second table design here. It is important to have the perfect table for entertaining and this one is a rustic, casual vibe. If you love the look, click on the links under each photo or any of the images towards the bottom of the post to see the product!  You still have time to pull it all together for a polished holiday table!
