Nigel is quite receptive to Darrell’s tutoring on what is currently de rigueur, must have and trending and what is not of a home decor type nature………
…… and as such has noted that though artificial, outdoor hanging baskets may be regarded as quiche kitsch and en vogue in certain circles …….
It looks like a dandelion on the right.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it would look better if there were three flying ceramic ducks underneath.
I'm so with you on this Nigel! I don't 'get' the current fashion for having those round fake leafy balls that light up either! They're so obviously artificial and look pants!
ReplyDeleteUsing artificial flowers/plants is always tricky despite advertising saying they are "life like".....not really my choice but I do have some dried flowers/boxwood topiaries I plead guilty to using; but they have to be kept dust free or it starts looking like Miss Haversham has been hanging out there!.....Fresh greenery for the holidays in Florida is a real problem; the outside wreaths/garlands usually turn full on brown with the dead brown needles all over!....thankfully we can rely on Darrell's sophisticated decorating knowledge to keep us informed!...Love you, Dianne
ReplyDeleteOh well - I love to see them - not something I would do but a bit of colour is always pleasant to see and lifts my spirits no end! JantheFan x
ReplyDeleteI'm with Dianne and Jenthefan here - we have some all green topiary ones hither and thither - and they DO need a little flick over as spiders love 'em and will happily cover them with their webs. Very pretty in today's mist though.
