christmas is coming

I wanted to share a bit of holiday cheer with y'all by way of these gorgeous images from http://www.desiretoinspire.net/ 

I am such a sucker for holiday decorations and kinda freaked out when I stumbled upon this gorgeous succulent wreath image. 

Luckily I have just the friends to turn to in moments of creative inspiration/crisis.

The lovely Liza of Quince Flowers in Portland http://www.quinceevents.com/

and her equally adorable studio partner Julie of Studio Olivine-Letter Press http://www.studio-olivine.com/

After many slices of pizza, and our fair share of beer and wine, we followed Lizas lead through the creation of our own succulent wreaths.

They are beautiful! And the best part is you don't have to throw them out after the holidays. they will keep on living through the year!
