Did I mention that I am obsessed with fresh natural touches
for Christmas?
Pomegranates, pears, nuts and apples & oranges and wee little tangerines
with leaves attached- I love them all.
And I love to include them in holiday vignettes.
I thought I would share a few easy and simple ideas
today- a few from recent posts and a few from Christmas past.
The best part?
They are easy to put together in a few minutes- especially if
you have guests coming and want something charming quick-
you can just shop the fruit bowl.
#1. On the Table
Fresh fruit is perfect for adding to a garland on the table for a festive holiday touch.
For a more bold look-go for red.
#2. On the Mantel
Gorgeous natural colors of Christmas are perfect for mingling on the mantel with fruit.
I am loving muted bosc pears with green and gold.
#3. In the cupboard
Dressing up your dishes that are on display for Christmas?
Yes, please.
I love using tangerines with those pretty little leaves attached
in a display in cupboards or open shelves.
In the antique cupboard in the kitchen-
a bowl of pomegranates was all this piece needed.
A closer look at both of these cupboards and their stylings coming soon.
#4. On the porch
And another place for citrus fruit which I shared a closer look at recently
is out on the porch.
Oranges or apples are perfect for adding to planters
and the base of evergreens for a festive touch.
#5. Out on the rock Fireplace
Green apples, artichokes and a string of cranberries mixed with fresh greens.
I will share more of this years look using fresh fruit coming up soon
and you can see more in my holiday home tour

I am joining Country Living Magazine & Hometalk for a Holiday Blog hop this evening
