We decided on a lovely white tree this year; it was the perfect choice. It really fits the color palette of the rest of our apartment, since I wanted to keep the color scheme monochromatic. I used gray, silver, and pearl-colored ornaments. Living in a loft is basically like decorating one large space.
Our loft is decorated in a mid-century modern style, with classic infusion. Overall, we keep a minimalist standard as far as accessories and furniture. Take a look at some of our holiday decor .
One of my favorite ornaments that I bought is this charming polar bear. I got this at a shop in Mystic, Connecticut. I love how he looks like he is balancing on one of the tree branches. I try to make the animals look real, not just hang on the tree. Our tree is only 4 1/2 feet tall, but we gave it extra height with this simple white end-table.

More birds on the tree! I love this adorable white porcelain bird. My mother bought us two of these.
On my table, I have a silver leaf platter filled with pine cones, and sprinkled with silver glittered balls.
On the coffee table I created a little scenery of snow, flocked trees, and this little twig rodent!
I found this amazing Pottery Barn SILVER-PLATED Santa; it retails for $125.00, and he weighs 20 pounds. I found him at Savers for $19.99. YES, this is a true story. How chic is that Santa? He is standing proud next to my silver ball tree that I made.
This is my mini vintage silver tinsel tree, decorated with light blue and silver balls of different sizes.

October through January, the clementine is a tasty fruit that is great for supplementing meals or as a midday snack. Often compared to tangerines, the clementine is perfect snack for children because of it's nutritional value and sweet taste. I even use them in cocktails, try adding cranberry juice to a good vodka , a squeeze of clementine juice , and some zest for garnish !
I think its all about the color POP! I am loving subdued shades of grey, white, and other neutrals, with electric pops of color. I am definitely interested in yellow at the moment, and thinking of enhancing my current palette with some yellow! I always say, stick with a basic color story and add your pops of color with inexpensive accessories that add interest and personality to your space. I love this coffee table in hot pink mixed with this darker palette! It's just amazing. Now this is how you add personality to a room!

I am in LOVE with the white felt bead garland seen here. West Elm has an amazing selection of holiday decor. Check out their website for lots of great things.
When we first moved into our loft apartment, one thing I focused my attention on was the proper drawer liner for the kitchen. With a cork self-adhesive drawer and shelf liner, you can gently cushion and protect fine glassware and dinnerware. The roll of soft, pliable natural cork features a peel-off backing to adhere to a drawer or shelf. The cork naturally resists mold and mildew and easily cut with scissors. You can find this at Target, and other stores.
Since 1971, Guy Wolff has been spinning some of the most exquisite clay creations around. Located in Washington, Connecticut, Guy Wolff makes his gorgeous pots at his studio. I love his work, and I hope to collect many of his pieces. The clean lines and timeless designs make for ideal choices for indoor and outdoor plant vessels. I love his white pots--they have a green patina that makes them look mossy and aged.
