Decorate your home for Thanksgiving with this ideas and have a delightful day.
Creative candleholders
Use repurposed candleholders for easy fall displays of small pumpkins and gourds. Look for candleholders in varying heights at a garage sale or antiques store, then spray-paint black for a unified look.
Harvest mantel
The focal point of this harvest-inspired mantel is a collection of inexpensive melamine plates attached to the wall with easy-to-use adhesive disc hangers. Casually arrange an assortment of pumpkins and gourds between two bundles of dried wheat on the mantel. Include a blackboard or two where you can write an inspirational quote or even your Thanksgiving menu!
Hues of autumn
Footed glass containers show off ribbons, beans and nuts in fall hues. The copper tray adds shiny sophistication and makes the arrangement portable.
Nut votive
Place these pretty votives on your Thanksgiving dining table, mantel or coffee table. Just gather unshelled nuts and layer in a glass cup around a small candle. Save a few nuts to scatter near your display.
Natural display
A pumpkin "basket" makes an imaginative centerpiece for a fall table.
Hollow out the pumpkin, then place a block of wet floral foam inside. Position a pillar candle in the foam and surround with fall blooms and berries to complete this DIY fall decoration.
Nature's artistry wreath
Embellish a square store-bought magnolia wreath with color-coordinated real and faux materials, including twigs, seedpods, nuts, berries, wheat and leaves.

Kitchens - their successful design is an imperative part of a working interior. It really can be the small, simple details - tailored to the way that you cook and use the space - that make it a joy to use. Whether it's having jars of ingredients on open shelving, or something clean white and minimal. From ergonomic islands to modular cabinets and hidden storage.
Orange Farmhouse Kitchen
The kitchen is painted a warm orange, with wooden units. Copper pans are displayed along a traditional shelf and rows of plates adorn the walls. A wooden farmhouse kitchen provides both a work surface and a casual dining spot.
Green Farmhouse Kitchen
The kitchen harks back to the building's origins as a farmhouse. It boasts original terracotta floor tiles and simple whitewashed walls. The traditional wooden beamed ceiling is painted a vibrant green.
Mews tricks
In the kitchen area, traditional and contemporary pieces work together, where a mix match of chairs around the dining table create an informal dining look. Carrara-marble-topped units are painted in 'Hague Blue' by Farrow & Ball.
Modern Country Kitchen with Black Aga
The traditional country kitchen has an Aga and complementing units on either side, with the owners' collection of copper pans hanging along the length of the wall. The table was custom-made and is paired with chairs and a bench. The effect, although welcoming and cosy, is minimal and fresh.
Farmhouse Kitchen with Wooden Dining Table
The kitchen of this farmhouse is painted in a soft green. The traditional units are creamy white with brass knobs and pulls and a gloriously weathered oak table has centre stage.

There are walk-ins and then there are these beauties that redefine what it means to own a luxury closet. The only problem? You'll be left full of envy after taking a peek at these rooms, which feature museum-quality shoe storage and a few chandeliers (because, why not?).​



Bright Skylight 
The skylight in the closet provides natural light, making it easier
                             (and more enjoyable!) to pick out an outfit in the morning.

           Shoe Storage
                 A dedicated space for it, which represents the height of luxury (we agree!).

                              High-End Doors                              
 The mirrored panels and hardware in this closet were inspired by the Hôtel de Crillon in Paris.   and the cozy furniture and chandelier are just the cherry on top.

Boutique Touches
When it comes to boutique design, less is certainly more as seen in this closet. That way, you can actually see what you own.



Black and White
Even the most cramped closets can get a boost from wallpaper (or paint).Focusing on one wall to not overwhelm the rest of the space.

                                                            
  Dressing Space
Channel the glamorous feel of a changing room by bringing in a tufted bench or ottoman to     your bedroom to create a lovely dressing space.


 Your bathroom may be the smallest room in the house, but there's no reason why it can't make a splash. We have put together a collection of beautiful small bathrooms from traditional and country, to the modern, wild and wonderful. Whether you are thinking of decorating your downstairs loo or your en-suite, take a look at these small bathroom inspirations.



A built-in shelf is perfect for keeping bathroom knick-knacks to hand and creating a pretty display at the same time. The use of colour and galvanised metal furniture in this bathroom keeps it spring garden fresh. 




Why not make a small bathroom the place where you experiment with the bold colour you're slightly afraid to put elsewhere. 



A pretty pendant light and a wall mounted towel rail are neat final flourishes that are discreet enough to keep this small bathroom looking airy and light. 



lights float on the surface of the mirror like bubbles in a bath. The motif is echoed in the handles of the teal cabinets.




Dark wood decorates the walls, which are inset with art. A big white bath is a lovely contrast to the dark wood.
