{Winter Whimsy}: A Palette of Red + White
{Red + White}
So I have a small confession. Okay, please don't judge me, alright? So the truth is that I've been rocking out to Christmas tunes for the past two weeks. I know...I know... the shame. I just couldn't help it. I'm admittedly one of those crazy Christmas people who just looks forward to the holidays all year and then when the smallest nip of cold is in the air, I turn into a super duper holiday freak. I held back as much as I could. I tried to embrace Fall for just a little longer... but my heart is already in December. And can you blame me? The holidays are the perfect time to bring out your favorite entertaining ideas. And naturally they just go hand in hand with weddings. {continued...}

So today I give you my ode to Winter. A small sneak peek into what's to come this December! I'm whipping up all kinds of pretty holiday inspired boards. Great for weddings or for any holiday party for that matter....So bring on the egg nog and the chunky sweaters, I say. Oh, and be sure to check out my previous Winter boards, my '25 Days of Christmas' boards I did back in 2009, as well as my other Christmas boards. So tell me... what are you looking forward to most this season?

I'm with you in the holiday spirit! I'm looking forward to spending our first Christmas together as husband & wife :-)
Perfect. We are fools for Christmas, too! Red and white reminds me of traditional Christmases; it's classic and stunning! {A}
Beautiful board, sweet =) your ideas are so inspiring.
Love this for winter...the colors are just so bold and beautiful!
So pretty & festive!
Can't wait until it's official Winter. I'm with you :) Looking forward to it also.
I am the same way! I, too, listen to Christmas music and bust out the snowman PJ pants when no one is around. It's such a wonderful time of year, so I say embrace it. Lovely board. :)
I justify the shameless Christmas joy by reminding others that time passes by so quickly you need a head start on the Christmas tunes! I love the simplicity of using just these two colors which are perfect for a wedding in December.
Love, love, love red and white together! Bring on the holidays!
I love this combo! What a great post and perfect for the holidays.
That image with the bird is so amazingly striking!

Oh, my! I'm so looking forward to the holidays!!!
well...I've refrained from Christmas tunes so far...but it won't be long ;) I bought some eggnog for my coffee this weekend.
Love that candle diy! reposting!
You're not the only one-I've been listening to Bing since July!
this is believe it a very sexy palette!
have a great week!
Oh, you should be ashamed! :)
It is always hard to get into the Christmas spirit in LA, where it is always warm and sunny. But with the little one a bit older for Christmas this year I am getting excited, even though he still can't understand the fun yet. Enjoy your Christmas tunes! xx
lovely and so inspiring .. as always
Love this!
I always wait until the day after Thanksgiving to listen to Christmas music but if I didn't do that I would totally be listening already ;)

I love holiday tunes and this color palette puts me in the mood!
Isn't this just perfect?? Love it!
I feel the need to listen to some holiday music after seeing your board. ♥
Such a beautiful and elegant Winter/Christmas board. I love the tradition of the Christmas tree...finding the perfect one, hanging the ornaments...buying too many ornaments! :) Happy Thanksgiving friend!
Lovely board :) That palette makes me want peppermint hot cocoa while snuggling up by the fire! xoxoxo brynn
I'm so excited about Christmas - so no judgement here! :) Love your picks. Especially the cranberries and the and candy cane sticks!
Love those potted candles! Gets me into the holiday spirit...seems like everyone has started decorating and embracing the holidays this week!
Strawberries and cream, maybe some rhubarb or summer fruits? Can imagine some great wedding catering options with this scheme.
