Layer soft goods on a high-backed bench to energize the spartan lines of a wood furnishing, as Jeannie does in her dining room. Arrange the bench at an angle to echo a corner shelf above. Spread woven fabric on the seat as a cushion, and set a plush figure in the corner. Boost visual interest with red plaid textiles, and include a few pine branches to provide a lively lift.
A slim side table in the dining room gets Jeannie’s Christmas treatment with careful selection of greens. Unadorned trees border its surface, with a long-needle swag between, and a swan figure bears a natural accent. A folksy Santa up on the rooftop of a prim lighted house nearby brings a smile.
Jeannie and Bruce welcome friends and family in their front hallway decorated with festive faux greens, setting the tone for a natural theme that continues through the house.
