silver snowflakes

I did so many of my favorite things today I don't know where to begin to tell you about them all!!!

We are officially open at the Gateway now and I was scheduled as a receptionist instead of my usual consulting so I thought the day was going to drag along sloooowly.

THEN! To my complete joy I was given the assignment to decorate the place for Christmas!!! OK, twist my arm!

I was pointed towards a tote full of glittery surprises and I went to town building all kinds of things. The snowflakes hang over the bridal consultant desk area in a clean straight row that looks very sleek and shimmery. The snowball/silver globe mobile hangs in the front of the store next to the lobby.

It was a great change of pace to create real things that I can see the end result for instead of spending hours on drawings of things I wish would become real at the end of the project. It also took me back a couple years to the fun filled days at Traditions where I got to create floor displays all the time. I can't ever live enough days spending time getting covered in glitter and hanging out at the top of a 16' ladder.

I love decorating for Christmas....I hate cleaning it up, however.

You are truly one of the Christmas Elves spreading magic and beauty with the snap of your finger. People will flock to your store just for the ambiance, if nothing else.
