Your words always make me think and smile. My green and white palate do not sound neutral, but you're right, they are. At Christmas, I add a bright red quilt to the end of the bed, in spring I add pink tulips, in summer everything is white. In this room especially, one item makes a dramatic difference. I can't wait to see photos of your simple Christmas. Elegance is a given on your blog, so I wait with baited breath!

Unless, of course, the simplify sign has a new spot that it is perfect for. My MIL used to have a wall that held two large prints in her dining room and she found two more prints that were similar sizes and she would swap them out using the same nails, one pair for the cool seasons and one pair for the warm seasons. She was able to change the feel of the room in minutes without pounding more holes in the wall. <br><br>I love the green walls and the pattern on the comforter.

Certain elements that act as the basic theme that you can always live with are those details that each of us can choose to make our homes beautiful and special.

I like how the white, delicate circle seems to fit perfectly with the white and green elegance that is already there. I like your style of decorating, and the crispness of the green and white looks so fresh and inviting! Thanks for introducing me to this "one thing" concept.
