The Art at the Gathering
For many, it is the most wonderful time of the year…the holiday season.
It’s a joyous time many, because lots of people are in the spirit of giving and spreading love. Of course this looks different for everyone, but it’s common to expect some of the following:
an invite to a loved one’s home for dinner
to receive a card in the mail in celebration of the season
to give and receive thoughtful gifts
to travel home or go on vacation
to deck the halls with greenery, lights, and soothe your space with scents that include traces of pine
The holiday season is the time for family and friends to gather, spread laughter, and talk about art. Just kidding. Well, just a little. But, really… how are you adding a bit of a unique touch to top last year’s decor? What are some statement pieces in your home that usually gets your guests talking and giving you compliments on your personal style?
There’s the typical list of topics we transition through during these gatherings, from politics, current events, tv shows, travel, relationships, social media, TikTok trends, memories, and so much more, but before we get deep in conversation, we first talk about the decor! We’re visual creatures, and walking into someone’s home for a festive event without mentioning the decor and art just seems wrong.
Hosting dinner parties is always about bringing people together, but the ambiance becomes a key factor in the equation of having a good time: people + food+ decor!
So, tell me.
What are you bringing to the table this holiday season?
How exactly are you decking the halls?
How do you coordinate the art at the gathering?
Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones. May the days be filled with peace, love, joy, and art!
