“The One” Holiday Ornaments

I’m back in search of the perfect design element, this time, ornaments for the tree!  Actually, ornaments can serve several purposes during the holidays, some become hostess gifts, others become napkin rings, the list goes on and on.

So here are a few that I found especially beautiful and unique this year!

Happy Decorating!

“The One” Mirrors

“Mirror, Mirror on the Wall, Who’s the Fairest One of All?”  How much of a statement can a mirror make?  Depends on how good looking it is and what it is reflecting, of course!

Here are my some of my favorite styles for today…mostly classic pieces that inspire for decades to come.

Notice, my two favorite silhouettes, beautifully scaled floor mirrors and classically elegant starbursts…what catches your eye?
