christmas in paris...

I wish!
Sorry to tease you with the title ~ just thought I would share some Christmas touches I put in my Paris Hotel Suite.
I am getting ready to put the tree up in my den so I had to move my white farmhouse chair.
I put it in my bedroom and added the lavender sachets I won from Jami ~ I think they look like packages...
White linen packages tied up with string...

It is right next to my tree...



It is tall and skinny and I do not decorate it, but I just love the way it twinkles at night...


As I mentioned the other day, I am keeping it very simple this year...



Just adding a little sparkle with some of my favorite things...




I may tuck some greens in, I may not...


I will not be in Paris for Christmas, but there is a little Christmas in my Paris Hotel Suite here at home now!


Thank you for visiting today!
I am joining Kathleen at Faded Charm for White Wednesday.
After you enjoy some winter whites over there take a minute and visit Sandy over at My Shabby Streamside Studio.
She has put together another one of her wonderful videos celebrating the season!

    Your tree looks like heaven with all the little white lights on. I really like the way they are interspersed on it. And the sachet bundles are completely charming. They look like little bundles made by real live santa's elves. I love the little vintage looking santas too... simple sounds really good to me this year...

    Oh wow, Sandi .... your Paris Suite looks so beautiful! I think alot of us are keeping our decor simple and more "nature" centered this year for some reason. I adore that look. The chair next to your tree looks so sweet!

    I do not know if you have gotten any of my comments. I just keep trying but they come back by email and say you didn't receive them.:( I am a computer dummy so I don't know how to fix it. Just know that I am trying. Your tree is beautiful! I like them without ornaments too or just a few. I plan on decorating simple and minimal.

    Sometimes the Simplest of Styling makes a huge impact... this looks Lovely. I have minimalized the Holiday Decor this year {well, it's more minimal FOR ME anyway} and the Crew here are glad I didn't overdecorate as usual. *Winks* So much easier, quicker and less work... I could get used to this!!! *LOL*

    So simple and pretty - there is something to be said about keeping decorating light and you have the right touch. I love that little icy blue santa, too!! I would be very content spending time in that Paris Suite!!

    I'd pay to stay at this Paris hotel suite any old day! It all looks perfect, Sandi, surrounded by your favorite things. I'm trying to keep things simple this year, too, but it takes me a while to figure out what stays and goes. :)
