Setting a beautiful holiday table

Setting a beautiful Holiday table is a priority for me, and I thought it might be fun to show you a sneak peek of our initial Christmas pattern concept which would come out next year.  It pairs perfectly with our faux bois, as that is the beauty of the faux bois pattern - its' versatility.  I hope this provides you inspiration for your Holiday table this year.

Antique Copper Rolls Used To Make My Faux Bois Dinnerware

I wanted to share with you a photo of the antique copper roll used to make my faux bois dinnerware collection.  This dates back to when it was originally produced back in 1892 in England.   Amazing that this hand-engraved metal object produces such beautiful transferware.  I personally would use this as an object d'art in my home!

Either way, the effect it made on the cookies lends a touch of sophistication without the hit to your wallet.  Here is used my Vanilla-Bean Sugar cookie recipe - 

Faux Bois [foh-bwah] Rug

I found this fantastic faux bois outdoor rug at Pottery Barn. I use this as an indoor rug just inside the entrance door to my home. I love how it evokes the feel of country and the natural fibers are so great at picking up and catching dirt so I do not have to clean my floors so often. My obsession with false wood continues....
