your chic Christmas in Paris

by Sharon Santoni
Today I invite you to imagine that you are living in Paris and that you have decorated your flat for Christmas.  Your gifts are wrapped, everything  ticked off your to-do list, snow is falling gently on the boulevard outside your window.
The ceilings are high, the rooms full of light, this year you decided to go for a silver and white Noel because it fits in effortlessly with your elegant grey and neutral interior.   Your stunning tall gilt mirrors reflect all this French beauty to perfection
Candlelight of course is essential right through to the bedrooms, the spacious sitting room allows for two trees not one, and the table is laid.

Now tell me, who have you invited to share your déjeuner de Noël?
Tomorrow I shall show you my red and bronze mood board,
à demain mes amis!

This is just beautiful. I could happily enjoy Christmas here
As for guests, you and your date would definitely be included and I if I am correct you have two children, so I shall include them. I know we would have a swell time talking about horses, literature, design, fashion culture.

What a delightful thought

Can I imagine that I'm 30 again too? Of course, you would be my first guest after introducing me to this incredible property! One can dream, can't they?
Have a great weekend!

Insanely beautiful, I would never leave and end up like Proust holed up in his flat! However, if we could have guests, well, I am very much missing my Mom and Sis at this time of year, so to lunch with them would be the best gift imaginable.

PS. Would definitely have to get the candles off the floor for fear of singing my Golden's tail…

A dream indeed! Christmas in Paris and a pied a terre are always on my list for Santa. Someday! I think I would have to have a cocktail party rather than an intimate dinner to invite everyone who I'd what to share that dream with!

Happy weekend!

That's just beautiful It's nice to see something different from white and grainsacks. Although I love that look, I love the sophistication of a beautifully decorated home like this one.
