How is everyone? I have missed you all terribly! My Connecticut visit was a blast and it is so breathtakingly beautiful there at this time of year! However, while it was great to visit with family, I am thrilled to be back in my own home and bed, and also to have baby Z back on his regular sleeping schedule. I also can’t wait to see what you’ve all been up to.
Have you all started to decorate for Christmas yet? I’m sure a number of you have your Christmas trees up already. I love a colourful Christmas tree and colourful Christmas décor, but I can’t help being drawn to the crispness and simplicity of a white Christmas like the one depicted in these photographs.
These soothing Christmas inspiration pictures are from the portfolio of the talented photographer, Sandra Aslaken. Do you like your Christmas décor to be extravagant or do you apply a bit of restraint? Personally, I have to have some type of drama which usually translates into colour

What a beautiful Christmas wonderland and how lovely to see you back,sweetie
ReplyDeleteI missed your amazing posts!
Glad you had a wonderful family time and enjoy your Tuesday
Hugs
These interiors are gorgeous! Great inspiration. We just painted our living room white and are having a new sofa delivered today. I'm giddy like a little girl (modern doesn't have to be serious, right?)
ReplyDeleteAmazing images! And glad to hear you had a good time :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful. Can I move in? White can be so beautiful and not boring. I love it
ReplyDeleteme too! me too! I LOVE it!!
ReplyDeleteLilac and Grey
I can't believe who short it is too Christmas either! I'm also dreaming of a white christmas - with all the snow where I live, I hope there is :) x
ReplyDeleteI LOVE white...would do the entire house in white if I could! (not practical with 5 children and 2 dogs). Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI also used color for decorating, mostly silver and red! xoxo
i know it's coming SO quick - all these images are EXACTLY what i'm doing with my bedroom - except for white walls i have lavander walls -- but the wood elements and white .. LOVE
ReplyDeletei would LOVE LOVE LOVE a white christmas!
my love for white has no white. My dream house has no color. haha. Hope you had a lovely holiday!
ReplyDeleteOh! It looks wonderful. White Christmas in Texas is far stretched but I will live through these images :)
ReplyDeleteOh Stacey, these spaces are gorgeous!! Love coming to your new blog every morning...such a treat!!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a lovely time and it's awesome to see you back! I love crisp whiteness to no end - if I weren't so worried about getting it dirty in 2 seconds, I'd go for it!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a terrific Tuesday & week ahead!
These ARE so soothing and pretty! I don't think we'll get a tree this year since we're leaving, how sad huh! I will live vicariously through blogs :)
ReplyDeleteThese rooms are beautiful but all white rooms in NH would be to cold feeling since we get buried in snow. Glad to hear you had a wonderful holiday, good to have you back!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous collection of photos. I love the idea of a white Christmas and am dying for a white tree this year. I usually do bold colour but am thinking about something different this year-we shall see. I haven't done a thing yet an am hoping to get moving this weekend- feeling very behind!
ReplyDeleteYes I love this one too. The stools by the kitchen bar are heaven.
ReplyDeleteMissed you too and hope you had a divine time.
Big hugs

Oh my gosh GORGEOUS.
ReplyDeletereally beautiful pics. "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, just like the ones I used to know
ReplyDeleteWhere the treetops glisten and children listen
to hear sleigh bells in the snow..." :-)
These are beautiful! I've always loved white lights and white, glittery trees. Being Jewish, I've never decorated for Christmas, but this is exactly the look I would go for. Of course, there's something to be said for going totally over the top, too.
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday to you too! I love a colorful Christmas. I see photos though, like the ones you've shown, and I like the idea of a clean, crisp holiday. Silvers, whites, maybe some light blues. But then reality comes swinging in (on a string of lights, mind you) and drapes my home in rainbow colors! It's the way my mom always decorated when I was a kid and it just screams "happy!" :)
ReplyDeleteI like it all and have done it all. Lately I've only been bringing out some of my decorations but this year I might get a bit more frilly.
ReplyDeleteYes Girl! A white Christmas theme ROCKS!!!
ReplyDelete:)
I too love a colorful Christmas, so I feel kind of split, but as I wrote earlier today. Next year I´m going for the white stuff only:)!
Lovely post, think I´ll add them to my 2011-Christmas album!
A colorful tree would look beautiful with these pictures as the backdrop! They are stunning!
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jane
there you are! missed you! ahh...a white christmas, so lovely. i mix it up every year, can't decide on a theme...love it all...yay for christmas!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a wonderful holiday Stacey! Decorating for me starts this week, and I so look forward to it every year. Loving all of this white. My favorite in decoration.
ReplyDeleteThis is just gorgeous! I love the living room, those log tables are stunning pieces! I love white decor, but I tend to lean towards shiny color at christmas! xo
ReplyDeleteI am so down with a white Christmas, but honestly we are having a hot pink Christmas here at the Deer residence, hot pink stockings, hot pink ornaments, and then some tinsel and pears thrown in the mix (it works!). Glad you had a great trip, New England is so beautiful this time of year! XX!
ReplyDeletewow, that is a NICE post. super beautiful interior design
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say I loved your comment about the orange bag! Even as I posted the picture, I was thinking: This is such a Stacey colour! ;)
ReplyDeleteStacey these are just gorgeous! You have me dreaming of a white xmas as I sit down here in sunny St. Thomas :) Glad you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! xoxo

ReplyDeleteOh isn't the white interior just gorgeous? So clean and simple. I love the idea of having an office decorated in all white. In fact I am taking my wood desk and having it re covered in white linen! I'll let you know how it goes.
