Hi there!
The last part of my holiday home is here with a little tour of the living room and office. I continued the theme with white, gold, a little bit of black and some red pops as I did in the other areas of our home. You can see the it all on my last post right here.
That previous post ended in the kitchen, so let's continue it right there, looking towards the office aka my wrapping center at this time of the year.

The gold frame it's been here for an entire year, and I like how anything I put inside it looks so good. The wooden star with all it's chippy charm is gracing that spot this season.
As soon as I get done wrapping the presents I will set the table with a pretty holiday tablescape. Yep. this space serves dual purpose. Although, it's used more frequently as an office.Taking a wide shot of this room has always been a challenge. The colors come out so weird. It's hard to take pics directly at windows. though, the one that's looking fabulous is my fiddle leaf. 🌿
The easiest arrangement to have at hand is this one below. I bought three bunches of greenery at Trader Joe's, as soon as I got home they were put inside this huge vase. Every time I need clippings to adorn presents or to decorate other parts of the home I come here to grab them. 👍
The white boxes under the table hold Christmas tags, ribbons and gift wrapping tools. I like to have them there, out of the way and ready for when I need them.
A set of Advent cards I found at a thrift store for three bucks, makes a huge impact on that little wall between the two windows.

Here, from the foyer we can peek at my daughter's wall/working area reflected in the mirror. I didn't included it because she likes to pack it full of stuff and I didn't want to bother her.
Finally, this side of the room and more specifically, this chair, belongs to Louie. 🐶 That's where he keeps guard. :)
Well my friends, that wraps up my holiday home. This past weekend I was finally able to decorate the Paris room for my daughter's friend. You can see me there in action on these Instagram stories. And that's was coming next here to the blog.
I hope you have a great week and warm and wonderful holiday!
