Hello sweet friends!
My house is back to normal after the Christmas Holiday decor which was every where!
I've enjoyed a week where all is clean and now I'm very rested. Although it looks plain and colorless, I still like it, it's as it has grown and there's so much space now all over, specially in the den where the big tree was standing!
Here are some pics of our house clear of the holiday decor.

| I loved this raised blue and white Oriental planter I found in the European Antique shop the other day. |
 |
| I have this lovely blue and white big plant pot for at least fifteen years. Alejandro gave me as a present when I had my half-hysterectomy operation done. I had a palm plant there that lasted a couple of years than got sick and died...therefore, I found this lovely bouquet of the "lucky bamboo" and bought it yesterday and immediately loved it for the pot! |
 |
 |
| I do love blue and white, it's very elegant. and it pics up the blue in the vintage artwork that was my Mil's. All the blue also makes it look Wintery as well. |
 |
| Vintage English salad bowl. |
 |
| In this end of the Italian style buffet I always keep displayed the Meissen two tier server, so again, in the European Antique shop I just found this reticulated bowl and small box to match, which I envisioned them together and loved it! |

 |
I'm storing some diet sugar in the small porcelain box. |
 |
| The entrance had the Carolers and lots of C'mas decor. As you come in there's the foyer to welcome you to the rest of the house. |
 |
| The flooring is black and white marble. |
 |
| The den is the part that it's mostly full with the C'mas tree, mantel, tables and even presents under the tree! So back to normal it looks neat and clean and serene, just with my Oriental planter as a 'new added blue and white piece.' |
 |
| A close up of the planter which is raised on a removable pedestal to collect the water that may drip from the pot. The plant looks droopy cause it was just planted. |
 |
| The formal living room looks plain and colorless, but I'm glad the red and green situation is over! |
