Anisha of Theme My Party and I decided to put together a special for this holiday season. Table decor for the holiday season. Well, its not just for the holiday season. I am sure you can use some of this as an inspiration for all of next year; until we "tip" you more. Here's what we did - Anisha styled the table with some of the accessories from Room Therapy and with her personal collection of  X'mas decor and not to forget; her eye for detail.

And we gave it a little twist, we chose blue instead of the usual, just to spice it up a bit. Approve?

Anisha is super with decor and detail. She pays attention to the minor things and makes any space come alive. You can contact her here 

and for all the accessories used here, you know where to contact us- that's right Room Therapy

I have always found the most amazing things at flea markets for my home in the last decade {i'm not that old, just like to think i'm very profound}. You guys know me by now- it gives me such a high to put eclectic things togther and make a space look *enchanting* {it is the Saturday Mimosa, that's throwing all these words in}
 
On a serious note, I was browsing through flea market finds and how they have been used all around the world. I found a bunch of awesomeness. Pure eye candy I must add.

Can't wait to see you all at the Flea Market.

I really like the warm feeling that's given out here.

I happened to find a fun glass jar a few weeks ago and wanted to fill it with decorative accessories or pebbles- nice but a little boring right! Meanwhile, I came across TERRARIUMS. It is in simple words a small glass garden or as some others may say, a perfect example of how the Eco system works. The temperature inside is controlled by a very basic principle. Read more here.  My job here is to help you make your space beautiful. Lets leave the science apart for now and learn how to make one. 

You need:

• a glass container with a top preferably
• pebbles
• charcoal- a thin layer
• moss
• soil
• assortment of plants- succulent plants would be great

What you do:

• layer container with materials 2-5 in the exact order
• plant plants, the tallest in the center.
• water the container
• cover the soil with marble chips or small pebbles
• seal terrarium with cover.

 

  

Maintain your terrarium.

No's
• No direct sunlight.
• No over watering your terrarium. if you see too much water on the walls, wipe it down

Do's
• When the plants start to droop, water your terrarium then

Last week, we (my friend and I) were hosting two brands showcase their products at my mother-in-law's garden. We decided to make it a high tea event - we don't do very many of those anymore, do we?! We wanted a rustic look, keeping a decent budget in mind. We worked out a few details to lay the table as well as the decor. I'm going to break this post into two and you will see why!

WORK IN PROGRESS

for the food flags, you need:

to print the description on handmade paper, 

cut it out and stick it on skewer sticks,

cut them to the height you need when your about to serve

THE SETUP

I don't need to tell you too much about my mother-in-law's garden and her green thumb. this garden was one of my first posts- definitely inspiring to blog about. You guys remember this post ! You will see the same accessories in a new avatar(disguise) here.

THE DISPLAY

Now this cupboard has a back story and my next post will give you the details. 

It's was a super fun project that my friend Keerthi worked on.  

And this is why I have to break the post into two.

REST OF IT!

 What are your thoughts? Like it? 

Would you have made any changes? Let me know!

 

How many times do we wake up after a party and realize we have a dozen full of family of whiskey/vodka/wine bottles. You can very well throw them out or use them to create pretty additions to your space. You can add a money plant or an old flower or twig lying around at home to create some bottle THERAPY!
