12 DAYS OF HOLIDAY PROJECTS - DAY 10






Wow! Can you believe we are at Day 10?  It really does seem like the days have fewer hours during this busy time of year!

A bit of a re-make on yesterday's project!  Each year I color co-ordinate the tree decorations, all the wrapping paper and tags as well as the house decorations! This year my colors are Burgandy, Silver & White. It really does look awesome when it is all glammed up and totally matchy-matchy!  My family thinks I'm nuts.  They're likely right!

By the way, burgundy is an impossible color to photograph. The stamped "Merry Christmas" on the tag looks black - it's burgundy. The place setting cards look Cherry Red...you guessed it - they're burgundy as well. The only item that captured the true color is the ribbon on the tag!  The silver glitter paper is SU.

  2. Wow, these look stunning in the burgundy/white combo, Geri! And the colours are showing true on my screen - Merry Christmas definitely doesn't look black and the burgundy card looks pretty much the same shade as the ribbon. Fabulous job!

  6. You colour coordinate everything?!! OMG, you are amazing!! You will have to take a photo...I would LOVE to see how it all comes together!! Between the 12 dishes you are serving on Christmas Eve, and this, I'm wondering if there might be a name tag with the name Shannon on it!!!

  7. I'm seeing burgundy, silver and white, Geri ... so glorious ... and not a hint of black or cherry red in sight! Love that the trees and snowflake peek off the edges of their respective projects ... glistening gently in all their splendour! Fantastic job, my friend! Anita :)
