Holiday Wishes...
During these last moments before the holiday celebrations begin, I'd like to express my gratitude to all of you for making The Gilded Bloom such a pleasure to create.
Sparkling Lights and Natural Whites
December is here and its beginning to look a lot like Christmas! This holiday season I'm keeping our decor very natural and rustic.
The Colors of November
The glorious fall trees have colored my world in beautiful shades of red, orange and yellow just in time for Thanksgiving. We have a late autumn here in California but when it finally arrives it is spectacular!
Autumn in the Garden
It is that time of year when the garden is fading and the cold rainy weather begins to cleanse the earth for next spring's beauty. I am now trimming, cleaning and preparing the yard for winter.
Pomegranate Harvest
It's that beautiful time of year again when the pomegranates begin to ripen and are ready for harvest. My husband brings out the tall ladder and climbs up to get them while I prepare the patio where they will sit in the sun a bit longer turning red before we distribute them to family and friends.
Boho Chic Dahlias
The glamour of Boho Chic style with its mixed prints and bright clashing colors has a certain appeal and visual interest that may be lacking in more conventional approaches to fashion and interior design.
