Christmas Luncheon Home Tour...

 Wanna see a lovely home?  And all dressed up for the Season?  

Me too - let's go!

The home owner is actually an artist (who loves antiques).

Her studio was my favorite room - so let's start there.

This vignette of snowflakes, candles and statuary took my breath away.

(Almost literally - I embarrassed myself with a big gasp when I caught sight of it!)

 

 Across the room... don't miss her bottle brush trees on Wilton cake tiers.  

And her chandelier is huge and gorgeous and... I love it!

 The window she paints by

 with a great view of the courtyard...

Yep - her brushes are stored in style.

On to my second favorite room with this awesome fireplace...

 

 Apparently this home was once a school house. 

I don't know if the ceiling is original - but it's amazing...

  

Behind the yellow settee was this delightful trug arrangement on a silver tray.

Some collections are just meant to be on display...

Details make such a difference.  Christmas in a jar...

 

The food was served buffet style in the kitchen.

Loved her presentation!

 Everyone should have a cow in their kitchen?   

Isn't he great?

 

Some parting random shots of loveliness...

(I think this is my favorite bathroom vanity ever!)

 A favorite painting she keeps above her bath...

Everything she paints is beautiful...

Tired after all that?  Yep - she really sleeps here. 
Thanks for joining me on this lovely tour.
I was honored to have the opportunity to share it with you!

Enjoy your Christmas Eve - hopefully with family and friends!!
