I just love the color teal and copper together, especially for Christmas decorating. It reminds me so much of the beautiful desert southwest, and using metallic copper, gold and silver just adds that special glitz for the holidays. The pictures below are ones that I either found on Picasa, Z Gallery, two of my own, or other Internet decorating sites. I particularly love the metallic glass bulbs hanging from the second level. I'm seriously contemplating trying to make them for the cathedral ceiling in my great-room, which I normally never have decorated in the past years. My daughter and I have been going to Home Goods about every 3 or 4 days, they are constantly putting out new decorations, and they have so many unique beautiful items. I don't know about anyone else, but it seems as though the holidays are coming so quickly this year, so...I think starting next week, I will begin putting up some of our Christmas decorations, and hopefully, to have them all up including the tree before Thanksgiving.

Why....you are seriously thinking Christmas! Giddy up, Girl!
ReplyDeleteLinda, Oh yeah...I'm so ready, well in spirit, have all the work yet to do, but that's the fun!
ReplyDeletesaw this and had to click. This will be the first Christmas I spend in Seaside with B. We won't be traveling this year and are hoping to finally biy our first tree and go all out, even if it's just for us and the pups.
ReplyDeleteLaura....it will be wonderful for you two, oh and the pups...I can't wait to see your beautiful pictures. It's so funny you commented on this page, I just told my husband the other day...just a few months and it's time for Christmas shopping...he just gave me that look!!!
