Guld och vitt

När man tänker på guld är det lätt att man bara ser det putsade, glittriga och skinande guldet framför sig men det kan ju egentligen vara all sorts gulmetall. Allt från mässing till koppar och brons. Det kan mycket väl vara lite oputsat och rufft och det blir riktigt snyggt till vitt och lite enkla lätt slitna detaljer. Lägg märke till grenen av lärk, så fin att ta in med sina kottar och allt.

Gold does not have to be shiny and glittery. It can be like this, rough and shabby which looks great to the rustic white style. Notice the tree, isn't it a great idea to bring it inside.

{ Tips: A Christmas silverplate }

I use my silver plate all year around for table decorations, just changing the look of it every now and then. And even though I know it's not December yet, I just couldn't wait any longer! I had to make a Christmas theme on my silver plate, and I think it's so nice to finally get some Christmas decorations in our apartment.

 As you can see in the background, I have also decorated my ladder with a light garland and an artificial spruce-garland.

Have you started decorating for Christmas yet? 

 Thanksgiving was great by the way. I´ll show you some pictures during the weekend.

Wish you all a lovely Friday!

Thanksgiving Inspiration

I'll be spending the day baking with my children and getting ready for Thanksgiving. My entire extended family is coming to my house so I want everything to taste amazing and look perfect (just a little personal stress!) I thought I would share with you a few inspirational Thanksgiving table photos I have been saving, to help you with your Thanksgiving tablescape.

Martha Stewart steals my heart above with a beautiful wheat sheath tied with a satin ribbon upon a linen tablecloth. I love the simplicity of this - I just wish I had a linen tablecloth and a wheat sheath - Definitely putting it on my list for next year!

I adore this next linen tablecloth with the inspirational script. I love the dried corn tied with ribbon and the bowls filled with nuts and candles. Simple and lovely from Country Living.

I can't recall where I located this photo, but I love the pheasant feathers and the setting in front of the fireplace. We have too many people coming but if you have just a small gathering, the spot couldn't be more cozy. Finally a great way to use your pumpkins left over from Halloween. I am going to get several bunches of fresh flowers at the market today and have my very talented sister (the organized one) arrange them inside my Halloween pumpkin.

After a very stressful Fall, I am counting my blessing and have much to be thankful for. I count you, my readers high on my list. Wishing you and your families a very joyous Thanksgiving.
