At Home With Laurie Ann: December 2008

Wow, it's been quite a month! Christmas is right around the corner. I still have so much shopping to do! Not to mention cooking and entertaining! What a fun and exciting month December always is. It can also be very hectic, so make sure you take the time to just be with those you love, doing the things that you love to do. My house is all decorated, thank goodness. This year, I decided to go with a more natural theme. Lot's of greenery, pine cones, warm tones and of course I (as my Mom would say) "poked a little red in". Red berries scattered along the tops of my kitchen cabinets, and in a garland along my mantel. Just to get that "pop". Decorating in a "natural" way is so easy and fun. Any color mixes is nicely with greenery and pinecones.

As most of you already know, we've closed our Cedros store in Solana Beach. While sad to say goodbye, we're excited to move on to new and exciting ventures. Keep tuned in, there's lots in store. Make sure you visit us at our old Poway location at 14149 Twin Peaks Road in Poway. We've been having our "Deals & Steals" over there for the last three Thursdays and there are some great buys! The last one for December will be next Thursday, the 18th. Call for future dates. Remember, we're here for all of your interior design needs.

Last night At Home with Laurie Ann had our annual holiday dinner. Here are just a few photos we wanted to share with you.
