Twelve Days of Christmas Design Tips – “Hable Style”

‘Tis the season…..

for rushing around, adding layers to my already packed days, and generally trying to do too much!

…which is why

I came up with these fool-proof Christmas design ideas in the first place.

But I’m certainly not the only designer who creates simple, yet beautiful Christmas shortcuts.

In my last post, I mentioned that I had a few surprises lined up for you.

Today, I’m so excited to share Susan Hable’s tips for the season!

Susan is the creative talent behind Hable Construction, a fabulous US-based textile company

that produces fabric lines and other products for the home.

Check out more about Susan on my recent post

Susan Hable of Hable Construction Glitter Houses

Look at her incredible display of "Glitter Houses"!

This is what she says about it,

"My foolproof decorating/design tip for the holidays

starts with my collection of glittery houses that I add to each year.

My children love them and especially sprinkling the snow around…

It’s fantasy and magical and usually I light them with LED tea candles at night

tucked in tiny spots around the houses. This year they are on a fun round marble table

under a chandelier covered in seeded eucalyptus.

Quiet dreamy indeed!

We spend the majority of our holiday in Texas with my family

Isn’t her wallpaper awesome? So festive.

Susan Hable of Hable Construction Christmas Front Door

Susan also told me about her decorating choice for her front door this year.

"Fresh greenery around the front door is a must…

Each year it’s different but this year I have a magnolia garland

that extends around the door – Very simple and basic

BUT I LOVE IT!"

Hable Construction Reindeer Stocking for Garnet Hill

I just had to add one of my favorite designs from Hable Construction’s

holiday line for Garnet Hill

Rudolph would definitely add a "hip" factor to any Christmas decor this year!

Thanks, Susan, for your thoughtful tips to help us

simplify…and beautify

our homes during the holidays.

If you’re like me, there’s still lots to do

so keep in touch
