A French Country Christmas

Here is another of Charles Faudree's wonderful homes - his weekend home, better known as 'The Roost'.

Even though I gleaned these pictures from one of my old Traditional Home magazines (2002), they still look as classic today as they did then........and the timelessness is what makes it classic. 

I was mesmerized by his talent then and I still am.

Enjoy!

A Charlotte Moss Christmas!

These images are of Charlotte's private brownstone townhouse in New York.  There's no big tree in view, but it could be there out of view, or perhaps no tree at all, as the family spends Christmas at their winter home in Aspen.

Looks perfect!

Enjoy!

Tabletop Trees

So many of my friends today no longer have the desire for large trees, nor do they have the energy it takes to go out and find the tree and bring it home to decorate.  

Here are some beautiful small trees that could be placed on any tabletop without too much ado!

Enjoy!
