A very Audree Christmas

 

Welcome!! Come and step inside my little vintage 1959 Fireball trailer, lovingly named Audree, and experience just how unexpected Christmas can be! 

I had such a fun time using the vibrant unusual color scheme for my holiday decor. I scoured flea markets and thrift stores to find vintage ornaments in hot pinks and aquas. Many came from Today’s Country Store, where they stock many unique vintage holiday pieces.

 

 

 

Milk glass vases make me think of snow, and they are a perfect pairing to display these wonderful vintage tin ornaments that double as flower buds in the vases.

 

 

Ephemera and a holiday corsage cover my fun bulletin board that greats guests as they come inside to visit.  

 

 

 Seasonal throw pillows in jewel tones from discount stores like Marshalls are a great inexpensive way to add more interest and a bit of a modern touch to this vintage gem.

 

Hot cocoa, anyone???  One of my favorite seasonal pastimes in the trailer, a steaming cuppa and a good book……

 

 

Stealing away to my private little Christmas getaway is a fabulous place to wrap presents so snooping little eyes don’ t see!

 

 

COLD BEER, alternative to hot Cocoa!! Come inside and visit, the choice is yours~

 

 

 Happy Holidays to you and yours!!! May all your days be very Audree and Bright!!!

Modern Marie Antoinette

 

I recently had the honor of taking senior portraits for a talented painter and pencil drawing artist, Hannah Souers, daughter of the jewelry artist Lisa Souers. Creating an art portrait for an artist is incredibly rewarding. That is a real background I did a painterly effect on. I love the juxtipose of the turn of the century master painting feel,  the antique props and the oh so rocker glam Doc Martens. It’s almost as if she was a modern Marie Antoinette in this photo, after a night of  magical partying! I am so glad you love how it turned out Hannah!!

Enjoy!
