Something I Am Reading

Do you get out your favorite Christmas decorating books each year and look for some inspiration?  I do.   This book is White Christmas by Tricia Foley.  She is one of my all time favorite stylist for Victoria magazine.  Here is one of my first attempts at over-exposing my photos.  It isn't that over exposed!  It looks sort of dreamy but, not distorted.  Really, where I am the most comfortable.  But, tomorrow I am distorting my photos on purpose.  Yikes!  
The teacup is by Ralph Lauren.

Sherry, this is one of my all time favorite Christmas decorating books! I've had it for years, and take it out every Christmas-in fact it's sitting on the floor next to my bed right now :) Happy reading!

I don't have any of these books but I enjoy looking at them online. Your photography is making me nervous -- ALL of my photos look worse than your "bad" photos.

I don't have any Christmas decorating books I just rely on looking at magazine, catalogs and on line sources. That looks like a great book though!

Hi Sherry,
I always get out my magazines, they are so full of inspiration. And that is a lovely teacup, by the way. Thank you so much for your prayers for Jeff. I really appreciate it and he certainly does too! Thank you for coming to my Christmas tea and enjoy the rest of your day.

Christmas blessings,
Sandi

I love blue and white dishes (teacups). I need to play with my blog photos more... usually I am in a hurry though.
