and a joyful spirit.
Welcome to my site! Parsimonious Décor Darling is the moniker I have adapted to convey the sentiment you do not need to be extravagant to be fabulous! I love DIY projects, gardening, tablescapes, and incorporating thrifty finds and antiques with finery! My aesthetic is classic and traditional, with a touch of whimsy. Let's share!
Hello, friends!! I hope this post finds you all in good spirits and ready to celebrate the festive holiday season! I absolutely love this time of year, don't you!? Even with the public health and political climate of America being mired in uncertainty, I can't help to still feel that same sort of magic I feel this time of year. I am a bona-fide, certified Christmas freak, lol.
I have been sharing that I am trying to go with a more whimsical theme this year to bring a sense of levity and fun, and today I am bringing that feeling to the table. I hope you enjoy!
This table began with a wonderfully patterned topper by Ralph Lauren. I love the conifer foliage and berries, so pretty!
A garland of green dances down the length of the table
with ornaments, candy cane-inspired candles and trees,
The centerpiece consists of a darling sled filled with striped ornaments and wintery faux Dusty Millers.
Each setting plays joyfully along with either a boy
or girl gingerbread flatware cozy.
A gingerbread spreader and dish ready for whipped butter,
compliments the table, as so do the sweet gingerbread boy and girl S&P shakers.
From my collection:
Have a beautiful day!!
Until next we meet,
