Noël Nordique..."French-Nordic"
"click on photos to enlarge details"
All chandeliers and ornaments hand created by "Dore" Burlap Luxe.
The sway of winter branches and the beauty of bare wooded trees where the frost of grey rest on its limbs lit up from unexpected chandeliers that celebrate a Nordic-French Noël.
This winters branches has become the quintessential tree of Noël inspiring French Nordic with rural rustic charm few can resist.
The character in this tree has been carefully preserved by nature and its beauty enhanced with original pieces of artful ornaments and garland all created with salvage by "Dore" Burlap Luxe. Silver beads from an old necklace and wire for the making of the crusty painted with age chandeliers and crystal prisms that originally hung from a vintage chandelier now coated with handmade old a patina used throughout the rooms grayish and dull.
I share an endearing passion for living small with my daughter Hannah finding joy with the simple things of the season creating handmade and working on projects that include unfinished pieces adding weathered Nordic and living comfortable with French collective soul.
This tree has been fashioned with formal elements, but created informally giving it a sense of peace on earth.
Adding Nordic serenity to our home for the holidays.
