HALLOWEEN IN BLACK AND WHITE

 My kitchen is already black and white so it made sense that my minimal Halloween decor followed my kitchen's lead.

RETAIL DETAILS CAN TRANSLATE TO YOUR HOME DECOR

I've shared many times before that you can translate store merchandising techniques to your home decor too. There are many strategies for unifying a space and creating a pleasing cohesive style.  For this sale @ Buckeystown Design Co-Op, I focused on color and texture. Try grouping the treasures in your home with this in mind.  Let me know how it worked out.

I just restocked the European bread boards.  There are natural wood tones on the bread boards, beads, and tray. The woven planters add texture and repeat the raw wood color to unify the display.  

BREAD BOARDS AND WIRE BASKET

I still have some blue and white botanicals in stock.  How wonderful are these weathered shutters flanking the prints!  They're from a Victorian home in Pennsylvania.  Blues and oranges complement each other.





Earth tones make this work.

EARTH TONES IN FOX COLLAGE AND CANDLESTICKS

Gold sprinkled in a space always ties it together.  There's lots of texture on the vintage mirror frames and on the wicker covered bottles too.

Natural materials make this work.  The spheres and beads add natural texture.  The roses surrounding the vintage plaster compote add texture and a nod to nature.
WHITES AND WOODS AND WOVEN GRASS SPHERES
I repeated yellow in this grouping. Yellow appears on the chair seat and the book cover.  A yellow faux tortoise shell is propped next to the chair.  Above the shell are two prints with ochre tones.

Nature-related items in earth tones unify this space.

  Just repeat green.

The vintage document boxes and the red bead garland repeat the black frame and

MY KATE SPADE- INSPIRED CHRISTMAS TREE

Christmas has been a long time coming to our house.  We've had a one-month renovation that stretched well beyond two months.  I was waiting for all the construction traffic to be gone
 before I put up the tree.  Hence, very late with the decor.  For the first time in forever I don't have a live tree to decorate for Christmas.  I have a small vintage feather tree instead that I placed on the landing in the foyer.  I couldn't wait to add my Kate Spade-inspired ornaments to it.  I knew the black and white with pops of pink would really stand out on the white tree.


VINTAGE FEATHER TREE

I placed some of my Kate Spade office boxes under the tree.  
Adding ribbon makes them look like gifts.

The striped ribbon that I wove through the tree is very Kate.


I added some tassel ornaments to the mix.

Merry Christmas to my readers.  Thanks so much for following along.
See you all next year.  Have a wonderful holiday.
