Green Glamour
St. Patrick’s Day can easily be a holiday you skip over when you’re transitioning out of the pinks and reds from Valentine’s Day, and start thinking about Easter. If you choose to add a little luck by decorating for St. Patrick’s Day, you can easily overwhelm your space with an explosion of green and gold. For a sophisticated approach to decorating for St. Patrick’s Day, Kim walks us through her home and her small touches that bring lots of luck.
The first thing you’ll see in the entryway are simple spring branches with white flowers that are a great transition arrangement from winter to spring. Hanging glittering shamrocks adds a small touch of luck that doesn’t overwhelm the room.
In the formal dining room, a stained glass shamrock adds just a simple touch of green amongst another arrangement of spring branches with delicate flowers.
This three tiered pewter tray is a staple in our kitchen where everyone gathers, and it’s an easy versatile piece to make the centerpiece of our space. Antique green glass and this tea set bring the comfort of history and memories, while green apples, succulents and daisies add the touch of green and spring indoors.
Glittering branches from February were swapped out for fresh large Boston ferns to welcome in the spring.
This Italian ceramic slipper is a small touch that doesn’t take away from lush greens of the ferns, but is a simple statement piece for the mantel.
We are ready for corned beef and cabbage with this cozy dining set up by the fire. Touches of green glass and gold utensils keep the theme of St. Patrick’s Day, while welcoming spring with delicate daisy bouquets.
Our style boards for the week include elegant touches of green and gold that you can bring into the home as accent or statement pieces:
