Christmas Decor

My upgraded tree. I've switched the gifts with a nativity scene, the same as last year's. (Taking photos at night, is NOT a good idea. But, I just wanted the lights on to show you).

...Christmas 2010...

I've been saying how I wanted white & gold and may be silver or burlap for decorating the Christmas tree this year (...saying and not doing hem hem). Well, I tried to resist buying more commercial decor stuffs, and instead, went through my stash of ribbons (I don't hoard, I... collect some hehe). I found these perfect vintage white cotton trims (they are left-overs from my mom's sewing projects back when she was actually sewing clothes for herself!). And several pieces of white/off-white satin/organza ribbons. I was planning on making new ornaments with white felt,using this tutorial. But look at how 'charged' the tree is already. The 'skirt' is actually a white cloth and a gold voile superposed and just draped.

Red& Green birthday cake table decor

Ok...Please ignore the bad lighting... I wanted to share with you a simple cake table decor I whipped up for a family birthday party the other day, using papers. Super easy and quick projects. I used transparent nylon thread (0.4mm) to hang the pompoms and daisies, which I inter-spaced with sequins, threaded on a glittery DMC thread. And save for the tissue paper, I had everything else on hand already!

Flour + Water

I wanted to show you some food sculptures by the chefs& their teams from some of our best resorts, which were in competition for the "Fete du Pain" circa 2010.

Eggs are beautiful

Via Casa Bella

Casa Bella featured a fabulous post on easter eggs. It's funny that I used to find them ugly. In fact, I never liked painting them(even back in kindergarden, when you were "forced" to do easter eggs), however, I've had a change of heart seeing these...

For the sweet tooth

Taking a break from Holiday Decor....I came across these on UO blog, and I had to post. Don't they just belong to an inspiration board!

The Extra Touch for Christmas Decor this year

Via marthastewart.com

What could be better than to go DIY-way for little trinkets that can be used to add a special touch to Christmas decor? After a visit to Martha Stewart's, I have only one word in mind, doily papers! They really can be turned into beautiful things...

I saw this rad house tour on design sponge, featuring the designer behind beethings on etsy. How swoon-worthy is her atelier? Be sure to check her shop, she makes the loveliest prints.

Can't wait for winter to be over-although it is still tropical weather-so I can forgo cardi's and scarfs and break out the sundresses again. I am hearting these pictures from around the blogosphere. Perfect for this week's moodboard!

New Blog

Uncluttering LiveYourStyle has been quite productive, for I decided to start "L'Atelier", where all DIY, Crafts& Design projects will now be posted. Some new and exciting projects to come!

Please bear with me, Blog under construction.

Here's to many inspiring things
Cheers,
Sharon.
