For the 2010 season, West Elm have curated an original holiday collection that oozes sophistication thanks to it's modern-meets-traditional feel. The collection is the result of a collaboration with David Stark (this guy is such an inspiration to me) and includes garlands, mirrored baubles and paper trees. What strikes me first off is how inventive it is: circle garlands and paper flowers are used to wrap presents as well as adorn walls, whilst small leaves made from old books are used to decorate trees and as napkin ties. For me, West Elm have created a timeless, classy and comforting collection of decor that can be used year-on-year. Now all I need to do is find a way to convince them to open a store on this side of the pond!

Love the mirrored wreath and that white nutcracker would look great in my white living room :)
ReplyDeleteThose flowers are great! Such a fun twist for the Holidays. And the mirrored wreath is a wonderful piece, too. Lots of fun decor! West Elm is amazing!
ReplyDeleteOoh I love the mirrored wreaths! I wish we had West Elm over here!
ReplyDeleteThe mirrored wreath is fun and fiesty - would be gorgeous with flickering candlelight. What is going on with all these poor old books/ newspapers being torn up and turned into decorations? This started as a little idea and is now turning up in all 4 corners of the globe on everything. Enough! Let's try something new!
ReplyDeleteI wish you could see the displays in person. They're really nice. And green!
ReplyDeleteMirrors, silver, gold and white. Classic Fresh Christmas never goes out of style.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I really love how holiday decorating seems to be evolving into something more sophisticated and subtle.
ReplyDeleteI think West Elm's Holiday collection is so fantastic! They have really done a great job of affordable, interesting AND classic pieces. I'm partially glad we don't have a store here. That would be bad. Very bad ;-)
ReplyDeleteOoh, I want that mirrored wreath!! That really takes the glam factor up a notch :)
