Inspiration Monday: Your holiday swag

by / Monday, 02 December 2013 / Published in INSPIRATION STATION

I’m back from a short holiday break and fantastic Thanksgiving with family and friends.

You may have noticed a few changes:

1. We decided to test drive a new blog theme and merge our website and blog together.

2. We are new members of the the Better Business Bureau.

3. And we updated a few galleries in our portfolio.

As for today’s post…

If you have a teen in the house, chances are you are familiar with the term “SWAG”.

Just to be clear,swagThe above image is not the type of swag I’m referring to for this post. 🙂

 

I am referring to the beautiful greenery that can enhance your space in a variety of ways.

Like this living (aromatic) swag made of eucalyptus and red berries.

Or the ones with a vertical orientation

 

Vertical swags
There’s also the long swags, which are great for staircases, banisters and fireplace mantels

Here are 3 tips for decorating your holiday swags.
1. Enhance your greenery with lights for a stunning look as they flicker in the evening.
2.  Add decorative large scale bows in vibrant colors for a festive look or burlap bows for a rustic sensibility.
3.  Attach pine cones (florist wire/thread) to your greenery for added interest and depth.
Have you decorated for the holiday season yet?  If so, share your pics!
