Christmas is coming!

I'll soon be decking the halls with creamy white roses, frosted snowberries, mercury silver, fresh pine, bay leaves, holly and candles. The table will be set with crisp linens, polished vintage silver, gleaming crystal and fresh sprigs of herbs. With the smell of woodsmoke and crackle of the fire I'll be wishing for snow again this Christmas! Here are a few of my favourite finds and Christmas inspiration.

Grey

From subtle tones of the palest ash and silver to the deepest charcoal grey; the iconic French Grey, and the delightfully named Greige - that divine combination of grey and beige, all become part of a soothing and restful colour palette. Here are some of my favourites.
