I am not sure if all my readers know my background…right out of college I went to work at Tiffany & Co. in the marketing department.  It was one of the most amazing experiences.  I started working as a temp during vacations during junior and senior year and left when my son was a toddler.   Tiffany is such a magical place. When I read that they opened a restaurant on the newly renovated 4th floor, I had to check it out.  During Christmas week, at Tiffany, all the employees were asked to volunteer on the sales floor, as greeters.  I did this for soooo many years.  I loved it.  Answering questions, welcoming people into the store, directing them where to go was so magical.  Just to be part of all the comings and goings was something to behold.  Last week I decide to visit Tiffany and check out that new restaurant.  It was such a special visit for me because I had breakfast at Tiffany’s at my desk everyday for almost 10 years.  I also always loved the amazing Holiday decor year after year.  I had to share this year’s with you.  Oh and we cannot forget that blue box….SIGH!!!!!

And how awesome would it be if Audrey showed up at your door this Christmas!!!!

I made that wreath with my daughter this year at a wreath making class at our club.  The bulbs are battery operated and really sparkly and my dad bought them for me at a florist in Little Italy years ago, one night after dinner.  I bought the gold reindeer to use as  centerpieces for a holiday lunch that I used to throw every year when all our kids were soo young   They remind me of what fun I had with my girl friends and how I have to start the tradition again. 

 I have a silver theme in my front hall and I cannot remember where I got the silver wreath but the lucite reindeer are so old and were from Mecox Gardens in NYC.  One guy is missing and antler and a leg but I love them so much!!!!

Here is my bar cart!!!!  The glasses are Jonathan Adler, a christmas gift from my mom a few years ago.  The Santa lights up and he is from the 50’s.  I love him so much.  The decanters, stirrers, wine openers ice tongs and gold coasters are all vintage, some from my mom, some I bought.  My favorite thing is the candy cube from Linda Fargo’s curated shop at Bergdorf Goodman!!!

Here is my mantel…I change it up from year to year but the reindeers and trees are from Hoaglands and the feather wreaths are from Nest Inspired Home.  The garland I got this year at McArdyles!!  I used to have a Merry Christmas sign to hang over the fireplace screen, but it ripped so I am on the lookout for another.  The fireplace tools and andirons were my grandmothers, but I am not sure if you can see them from here, which might be good because they need to be polished!!!

This tree is so old..I love it..its definitely has seen better days.  But I got it when my son was a baby and I cannot bare to get rid of it.  The reindeer ornament was a gift from my book club swap and I just think it fits perfectly there!!!
