Merry Magazine and A Holiday Centrepiece

Happy Monday! Today I am SO excited to share with you the launch of Merry . An online holiday magazine created by Melissa of The Sweet Escape . Whether you’re into traditional or modern decor, handmade or vintage, we’re hoping these pages will inspire you to try something new or encourage you to get crafty this holiday season.

Myself and 15 other bloggers have been busy creating, styling and photographing our projects and we hope you love what you see. Check out the Merry Mag here . This holiday season, I wanted to create a centrepiece that combined organic textures with geometric design. During a walk one afternoon, I picked up some branches which I thought were so beautiful.

They were so worn out and weathered but the texture really caught my eye. I placed them in a glass vase and held them in place with some rocks. And since I love white, I decided to fold several origami gems (I used these templates from minieco) and hung them from the branches.

Where we would start: Article Affiliate Program — Mid-century modern sofas and sectionals shipped direct, without showroom markup.

Since my table is a 6-seater, I’ve always had a difficult time trying to find the right centrepiece to fill the space. I love how large it is, it’s the perfect focal point for my dining room. Don’t forget to check out the other projects in the magazine to get you inspired for the holiday season ----> #merrymag

P.S. A few readers have asked which furniture & seating we actually reach for — it's Article Affiliate Program; take a look here if you want the current details.
