I believe anyone who loves Christmas can share the same feeling of not getting to enjoy the Christmas tree as much as you would want because before you now it, it's "time" to break it down! Wouldn't you agree?
Well, have you heard about Harvest trees? Is a not so new way to get to enjoy and extend the Holiday cheer at home as early as you are ready to decorate it for fall. Yes! If you are wondering where to start please check out my work below so you can get inspired!
For this particular design, my client Desiree W. in Phoenix AZ. was looking for some help with her seasonal decor and she mentioned how much she loved fall's warm colors and how she couldn't wait for Christmas so, I suggested she give a Harvest Tree a try this season. Without a second thought she agreed!
Desiree was looking for something classic, warm and earthy and once we discussed the budget and color scheme I went out shopping. I found some great options for "ornaments" at our local Hobby Lobby and Michael's, Dry Nature / foliage accents at the Flower Market and some home decor items such as candles and accent pillows at Home Goods. While shopping I intentionally selected a few neutral items that could be of use during Christmas time such as the plaid ribbon, pinecones, and some clear drop branches to maximize their use during the holiday season.
Well, what did you think? If you are looking into give it a try yourself, my advise would be to mix up "real & faux" items so it helps the "faux" items look more real life like. Also remember less is more so, a fall pillow here and there is enough to set the tone. Lastly in my opinion, what helped make the look more high end, was the mix of the dry nature and final touch of faux feathered Birds / Quail residents.
Thank you for stopping by and hope by the end of this post you are feeling motivated and inspired to give a Harvest Tree a try this season!
Happy Fall Decorating :)
