Back in September, I decorated an odd, little niche in our bathroom. Since it was fall, the theme had to fit. So...a split gourd, some dried flowers (plus a couple of silk ones) and a lantern filled the space perfectly. Then came along October with Halloween and November with Thanksgiving. Everything stayed the same except I added a couple of tiny pumpkins. I was beginning to like this idea of progressive decorating! Now, Christmas has sneaked in and caught my pumpkins by surprise! It was time to change.
It took a grand total of about two minutes to transition into a different holiday! Out came the fall leaves and orange flowers. Away went the pumpkins! Those would never do for Christmas! A nice bow in red and black plaid topped the lantern, pinecones replaced the pumpkins and a wooden cardinal came to visit. Greenery was poked into the gourd and a crocheted doily made by my grandmother provided the perfect base. It is nothing fancy but neither am I nor is the Little Bayou House. I am sure others would have much better ideas of how to deal with this weird spot but this suits me fine. Progressive home decorating is the way to go!
