December Flowers!!!!!

One of my absolutely favorite things is to decorate our house for Christmas.  I have to admit I am much better at some parts than others.  For example, the outdoor decorating.  I really am challenged when it comes to making the front of my house look festive.  I have tried..I really have…garland, lit, unlit, wreaths on every window, light up deers flanking the front door.  I am just not good.  Luckily for me I called Megan McSherry!!!  She is so talented and she came over, swooped in and decorated my planters that are on either side of my front door and garage.  It took her no time at all and the finished result is beautiful.  I just need to add my wreaths and we are ready for Santa.  Megan is based in Bronxville, NY but she will travel to all neighboring towns and even into Connecticut to do YOUR garden pots.  I promise you, you are going to LOVE her work.  Here are some of my favorite designs that she has done.  Please contact Megan HERE.  She books up fast so I would email her sooner than later but she is very quick, efficient and VERY REASONABLE!!!!!  Bon Weekend!!!!
