"Christmas at SMW Design . . . "

Greetings,

We're finally pulling into the proper Holiday season - and I wanted to share a few images I took last night at our new offices here at the San Francisco Design Center.  We moved into our new digs in early October - and we only have a few boxes left to unpack!

After my many years at Ralph Lauren - I truly missed being able to design and install 'windows' for the Christmas season - luckily our new home has a proper window display space - and I've been plotting these window from practically the first day we moved in . . .

It's not quite the drama of the unveiling of the Bergdorf windows . . . but come . . . join in a bit of holiday cheer from SMW Design and SMW Home . . . 

 We are ALL about colour and pattern this year!

An antique Georgian Secretary was the perfect centerpiece for the

window - and the Schumacher wallpaper creates such an amazing, vibrant

backdrop!

I also took advantage of our lovely products from SMW Home

to create something truly special . . . like our Meacham Tartan Decorative

Pillows and Wool/Angora Tartan Throws. 

Since everyone deserves some holiday cheer - I wanted to add one of our

SMW Home Dog Beds in Ryder Tartan.

I'm still at that marvelous point in creating SMW Home where I've hand-selected

practically every single piece in the collection - from a Vintage Child's Sporran to

an assortment of English Biscuit Barrels - and even a few pieces of framed Artwork.

For the trees ('cause one always needs as many Christmas trees as one can get!) - it was a 

mixture of vintage tartan ornaments with faux flowers and fruit. 

And what window display would be complete without a few pieces of

Antique Tartanware in the mix.  I love this copy of the works of Sir Walter Scott

bound in Antique Tartanware. 

Thanks for stopping by our wee Christmas display - and I hope you're already having an amazing holiday season!

cheers,
Scot
