As we close out this holiday season - I was looking through an album I created on Instagram full of ideas for the 2021 Chalet Christmas decor. I hope you find these images inspiring too! Enjoy! Click image for source.

Love the idea of covering a round mirror.

I’m loving this mirror and covering it in this lovely greenery is delightful.

This gorgeous greenery has me thinking about what I could do on the upstairs railing or possibly a swag underneath our stairwell handrail.

More gold accents - I love this look of a nontraditional color.

Nothing works better at making a statement than a large grouping and while I don’t own glass trees - I could use bottle-brush trees.

This deer was brown before paint - it reminds me to think of what it can be.

This glorious ribbon and greenery is lush - I love the use of eucalyptus. I definitely need more ribbon next year.

The pine-cone wreath and a nontraditional ribbon color elevate the space.

The use of a blue and white ceramic planter to anchor the tree is genius!

Focusing on a single bold color is brilliant.

These sweet ornaments made me think - maybe I’ll use my tabletop tree in the upstairs hall cabinet next year with a fun theme.

Another reason why I need a cloche. This is so simple and no dusty ornaments.

This ribboned nutcracker has me thinking of where I might add something similar and finally this table is offering more thoughts for the cabinet in the upstairs hall.

So much originality and inspiration in this images. I hope you saw a thing or two you found delightful and maybe filed way for next year too!

We were blessed to share Christmas Eve with family who are in our circle and though our Christmas Day was quiet with just we three here in the Chalet it was lovely to spend the day in our PJ’s playing games and relaxing. We very much missed spending the day with family but, count ourselves so fortunate that our loved ones are well. I’ve spent most of the last week lounging on the couch reading, watching movies or playing board games when I haven’t been eating delicious treats! So all the way around I feel Christmas 2020 was a success!

I wish you a wonderful New Year!

Thank you for taking your valuable time to be here and be part of the Chaletmomma family I truly appreciate it!

Til next time stay well and Cheers!

I love taking deep dives into color stories or design point of views. This week it’s all about White. I’m always drawn to white in design. It consistently looks lovely and fresh. White is a color associated with positivity - brilliance, cleanliness, faith, goodness, illumination, innocence, light, protection, purity, safety, spirituality, sterility and understanding.

Other words that represent the color white: alabaster, antique, cream, chalk, cornsilk, ghost, ivory, lily, linen, milk, old lace, paper, pearl, seashell, snow.

In most western cultures white is traditionally worn by brides to show purity. In many eastern cultures white is the color of mourning. Did you know the idea of a white picket fence offers a sense of safety?

Here are some phrases associated with the color white:

“white elephant” a rare unwanted item.
“white flag” to surrender.
“white knight” someone who comes to the rescue.
“white knuckle” something fast, exciting or frightening.
“white sale” a retail sale of sheets, towels and other linens.
“whitewash” to cover up or conceal.
