A Charleston Christmas

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many of my favorite photos were taken from <i>Southern Accents</i>, which ceased publication in 2009. I found the following pictures while looking through my clippings file for holiday inspiration. I love adding greenery and berries to mercury glass containers or antique bottles, which Becky Davis of <a href="http://bdbotanicals.com/">Becky Davis Botanicals</a> has done in the Charleston, South Carolina home depicted below. If you would like to see more of her work, my September 27th blog post "<a href="http://aflippenlife.blogspot.com/2012/09/a-touch-of-green.html">A Touch of Green</a>" highlights <a href="http://gardenandgun.com/article/pressed-botanical-art">her recent feature in Garden and Gun</a> (October/November 2012). The Christmas decorations in the following photos complement the historic house and collections of interior decorator <a href="http://jackyelanham.com/">Jackye Lanham</a>. The space she has created is both elegant and welcoming - the perfect Southern home.

I love his use of green, gold and white, as well as the serene beauty of the devotional art and the Spanish Colonial antiques he and his partner, Harry Greiner, have collected. Vitale is the author of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Divine-Home-Spiritual-Objects/dp/B0048ELD9Q/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top">The Divine Home: Living with Spiritual Objects</a>.  </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT8ZaAxAQTxlH__uplcxb9NsYqFh830Vgk7jczLvPoisgb3b9rIXYGpQkLvbYf2fUe3oK6CVlUC_YLDPM6DlugU_5MhK2oOmHFX59uGvYBw2hbAqW15rtyVyjSg8H0NbE_LQ2bmeg8Ncuv/s1600/BlogPeterVitaleChristmas3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiT8ZaAxAQTxlH__uplcxb9NsYqFh830Vgk7jczLvPoisgb3b9rIXYGpQkLvbYf2fUe3oK6CVlUC_YLDPM6DlugU_5MhK2oOmHFX59uGvYBw2hbAqW15rtyVyjSg8H0NbE_LQ2bmeg8Ncuv/s640/BlogPeterVitaleChristmas3.jpg" width="496" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"During the holidays, the walkway to this updated Pueblo-style </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Santa Fe home glows with <i>farolitos</i>."</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Interiors by Peter Vitale and Harry Greiner.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Photography by Peter Vitale.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Text by Kimberlie Waugh-Bloodworth.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"Christmas in Santa Fe" produced by Mary Jane Ryburn.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.veranda.com/">Veranda</a> (November - December 2007).</span></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAwc8TBtkyrmNQPGZdlVJwb1Zyb8gM7gsC3epkpSE0VLtLt35TSgJ8aHmKzdyBc670eD9gmwppq3cGsywGM4j-zCwjpnVASRXLKUHlSQ5ITYLJ7WCRqG4QSi6oenXjs7PKRE7qXdH5Bqto/s1600/BlogPeterVitaleChristmas4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAwc8TBtkyrmNQPGZdlVJwb1Zyb8gM7gsC3epkpSE0VLtLt35TSgJ8aHmKzdyBc670eD9gmwppq3cGsywGM4j-zCwjpnVASRXLKUHlSQ5ITYLJ7WCRqG4QSi6oenXjs7PKRE7qXdH5Bqto/s640/BlogPeterVitaleChristmas4.jpg" width="566" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"In entry, 18th-c.
