Festive Foraging

Foraging is usually associated with food and those ‘wholesome’ types that couldn’t possibly pop anything artificial into their gobs, so instead they fanny about roadsides and ditches looking for that perfect mushroom to settle down into front of the fire with.

But that’s not what this is about – OH NO!

This is about foraging for a far more important reason – for decorating your home with! YAY!

Lately I’ve become fairly obsessed with Scandinavian décor and after much internet study have come to the conclusion that those guys love to put a focus on natural textures and neutral, white-wash hues. Even at this time of year, when everyone else has lost the run of themselves and has covered their apartments/houses in oodles of red gingham and purple tinsel – the Scandinavians keep to their calm palette and focus on bringing nature inside in a rustic but chic manner.

So get foraging! Go to your local park and look out for fallen tree branches, big and small. Grab fern cones and any other interesting looking bits you can find – bring them home to dry and on the next blog post we’ll talk about how to integrate them for a stylish Scandi-inspired festive home.
