New Year’s Eve gave reason to celebrate… and decorate!  Hosting an intimate dinner party meant warm and glowing centerpieces were in order.  Happy 2012!

There is an awkward window in Cary and my kitchen, which when adorned with Christmas baubles in mid-December seemed to awaken from its generally stark state.  However, now that it is time to take the baubles down I have been seeking an alternative decor to freshen up the rectangle but not look like we neglected to undress the apartment after the holidays.   Yesterday, I came across the perfect solution – hanging vases!  Crate and Barrel’s CB2 sell gorgeous glass vases that hang on a spunky ribbon or a clear thread and hold the simplest bud.  When hung together they make a gorgeous window arangement or “table” display as seen here.
