Mantel decorating idea for the holidays
We asked Christine Flynn, designer and shop owner of Love the Design, to share her fave Christmas traditions.
“I love decorating with a nod to my childhood days spent on a farm. One of my favourite pieces, especially at Christmas, is the antique stag head. And a row of sage taper candles to make the whole room glow.”
Favourite holiday tradition:
“Every Christmas Eve my sons, my husband and I load up on candy while we make an elaborate gingerbread house.”
Under the tree I hope to find . . .
“A statement necklace from J.Crew in blush-toned gems.”
