You know how some days everything clicks….like there’s magic in the air. This was one of those days.
There was the signature “wow” table – this time the colored chairs were pink! The tapers were blue and the touches of holly said “holiday”!
Eddie and Jaithan – holiday handsome!

Watching Eddie work
Susan of Shandell’s (as seen in The Best in the November issue of House Beautiful) brought her gorgeous decoupage tissue box holders, matchboxes and more!
Cara of Oliphant Designs showcased some beautiful holiday jewelry. Look for her in an upcoming issue of one of your favorite online magazines!
Eddie’s presentation was the highlight of the day! He shared past projects from House Beautiful, Martha Stewart and Woman’s Day that had our guests feverishly taking notes.
Eddie shared tips on gift wrapping, place settings and holiday decor.

To all of those who came to kick of the holidays with us…thank you! And remember to “Celebrate in Style”!
ps: I’ll be sharing Eddie’s sources next week!
Gorgeous! I love how he took what could be a summery look and made it perfectly Christmassy and feminine!
Thank you for taking such wonderful photos and sharing them with us!
It really was such a great day! You, Eddie, Jaithan, and the other fab vendors…a force to be reckoned with and the REAL DEAL! Hope you get three seconds to put your feet up between now and Thursday! xoxo Sue

I really love adore those table arragnements! They're so wonderful! From color, which is my favorite one up to the meticulous matching of table wares into lovely arrangement! A wonderful sight.
