Christmas is practically around the corner.
Traffic is peaking here in Atlanta and you can't get anywhere. Kind of makes it hard for a gal who still has errands to do for clients!

It looks like I won't be wrapping things up until Christmas Eve but after that….the fat lady will sing.
I have another batch of my semi Christmas decor pictures to share today. I admit that after seeing so many incredibly decorated homes in blogland this season it's pretty easy to feel inadequate.
Like I'm sure some people are thinking "oh isn't that cute" she put balls on a tray and stuck some greenery in a few containers.
Bless her heart.
According to reports let me just say the most irritating word for 2013…..Whatever.
This area got just that….greenery.
A few topiaries and a paperwhite.
Everything grows in this sunny spot!
It's like a mini greenhouse:)
Yup…more greenery in a vase. Will the creativity ever stop.
This has nothing to do with Christmas but I put these cuttings in with some water about 4 months ago…..look how they have rooted.
I saw these cute trees at Home Depot and pounced.
I can't remember where I got this basket but again….stuffed with greenery and a few pinecones.
I'm starting to bore myself.
I'll have the last batch to share on Monday.
Yawn.
4 shopping days left.

I think it perfect! I love the greenery!
I personally love the greenery and simplicity. And you will be loving life when all of the other bloggers like me spend the week (or month) after Christmas tearing everything down!
oh i love the ornaments and pinecones in the pors- a perfect touch to the entry! i love your home!
You are too funny! I'm not really feeling it this year at my home, but the live greenery has helped. I actually like what you've done. Festive, simple, and warm. I'm looking forward to seeing the next batch of photos. By the way traffic seems to have doubled here in Los Angeles! Is that even possible?

love your front door! as always, you inspire me.
Don't sell yourself short, Sherry. Your home is lovely and welcoming.
The paperwhites will last longer if not in direct sun. Good light is all they require. Merry, merry & Happy, happy!
Love all the natural elements!
I agree with Sarah! This is my favorite way to decorate. The natural, pretty feel that greenery brings is so perfect for the holidays! Your front entrance stopped me in my tracks. Well done, my friend!
:)
Shartistic visionary is right! It all looks "beautious," simple and perfect, especially your entry, LOVE!!!
Sometimes less is more. I like your understated approach. I happen to love sand dollars too.
It all looks good to me. Love the trees on the front porch.
i am going to agree with everyone above. i am finally coming across all the rooms i have repeatedly repinned on pinterest and they all belong to your home. extravagant holiday decor or not your home is fantastic
I love all of it :-). And yes, Atlanta traffic is the pits today.
I'm a fan. I'll take greenery over a eleventy billion santas any day. The only thing I do big is the porch thingy and it's covered with - you guessed it - tons of greenery.
I love all the natural greenery. Your front looks so pretty. I love the black planters.
I love all of it. I don't care if you do just stick greenery everywhere. I just like seeing pictures of your house any day.
I love your keeping room. So textural and kind of butch. Front door is pretty nice too.
Stop it, I absolutely love your home; greenery in a bowl n' all :) Your home is beautiful, can't wait to see more.
That may be your best "Shar" name yet...lol. Nothing boring here...simply beautiful, peaceful and gorgeous!!! And your front porch and door...WOW. Stunning. xo
You are always so funny! I enjoyed seeing more of your natural Christmas décor. I love the betwixt pillow in your sitting area too. I have the light tan color myself. Your front door is decorated very nice. I was out in the traffic today myself. It's AWFUL! I think everyone is off work and out of school so it's a little crazy now.
Your house looks amazing as usual. :) love it!
Dear lord you never cease to truly crack me up. The front pots and door are gorg, and no, there is no yawn here. I love your home. Just love it.
You aren't kiddng anyone...you make it look so simple...I have to laugh at your humor girl...my decor really is minimal (way more minimal than yours) this year. Isn't it a pity that we feel we have to produce something for our readers!!
Simple and beautiful; love it!!
I love the front porch. It's gorgeous! Those trees!! Wow! It is all beautiful.
Merry Christmas!
Yep! Less Christmas more Winter and it stays "up" sometimes past Valentines Day :-)
Sherry you are so incredibly funny and so incredibly talented. You are the farthest thing from boring. It shocked me that you said you felt inadequate. What the what?? You do?? Don't sell yourself short, you are on the other end of that stick lady! Love your blog, your home is amazing and you are simply one of a kind. I look forward to each and every post you write.
I think it's all absolutely perfect. I could move right in and not change one single thing. Looking at photos of your home truly feeds my soul. Wow. That was pretty deep, huh? Keep 'em coming. And thanks so much for sharing.
could not be better, really!
who needs red, glitz, glam......when you have a gorgeous setting? that bit of green is perfect, but cannot wit to see what else you do

I'm with you! Less is more! Not only from the perspective of effort but just the look in general.if I had toddlers at home I would want to spruce things up a little bit more. Now that my children Are adults, they can handle not seen a Santa at every corner.
Blessings to you and yours!, Barbara

At least your balls made it into the container....
Love the simple greenery and that sunroom is wonderful!!!
We are having a heat wave so all our snow is melting!
Karolyn
gimme this scheme and strategy anyday over the yards of tinsel and trees so heavy with metal ornaments u wanna strike it with a nice roundhouse kick to make it go away. i like all the breathing room you leave and the natural touches that never feel anything but timeless. simple is not that easy, creativevisionarysherry.
joy to you.

Well, your humor is always appreciated and without reading the other comments to your post, I will say that I love your unforced style in adorning your home for Christmas!! Perfect in every way, Sherry. It takes a more critical eye to achieve this look... so no fooling me! Happy holidays and thanks for sharing the spirit of your beautiful home!

Everything looks just perfect! restrained yet festive --- one thing how do you keep your topiaries alive???xo
I ooh & aaahh every,time,I see your house! Love too much to list. I spit my tea out when I read your name! Seriously, I almost sharted...
I love all the greenery!
Absolutely love your use of aqua as an accent to your decorations! The front entry looks very nice with the potted trees and the glass baubles placed there so casually.
One question : ( I must live in a bubble ) Where /what is Scotts?
Happy New Year!
I am having a serious case of fear when it comes to selecting and purchasing curtains for my 1920s home. I have been visualizing the bamboo shades and sheer white cafe curtains for my front window and tonight I stumble on this image on your site!! Please share some details.
Agree! Would love to know where these bamboo shades came from! I loooove your style! I don't have the decorating gene so I'll just copy you. Mmmm k? :)
Where is the slipcover on the wing back chair from?
Hi! Was wondering where you got you blinds from?
Thanks Kelsey
DId you purchase the wicker basket how is/ or did you DIY spray paint it to freshen it up? If so, what color spray paint did you use. Trying to replicate the browns you have here that match so well with gray.
Thanks!
Please please please - where are bamboo shades from? Looking for the perfect color is killing me and these are gorgeous!!!!
