Silver and Sage Revisited

I posted these photos two years ago in Silver and Sage but I love them so much that I couldn’t help reposting them. The house located in New Canaan, Connecticut was built in 1885 and belongs to designer Michelle Morgan Harrison. It was originally featured in Connecticut Cottages & Gardens and makes me wish I had a whole house to decorate for the holidays. I love that the colors complement the decor and aren’t too over the top. Joyeux Noël!

The bookcases are to DIE for! I love that the books are covered and bundled with ribbon. So festive and inspiring. 🙂
I can see why you like this. The colour combination is great.
Those stockings look so nice too. They’re a nice change from the typical red and white.
That cake is making me hungry.

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.Lovely colour scheme.
New Canaan is my hometown and I always miss it at Christmas time. Thanks for reminding me of home. Happy Holidays.
Oh, my!
You’ve posted my dream! This house is like a dream! It’s so “homey” yet so stylish! The porch, the decor.. perfection! It’s a house you can’t forget about.
Have a great week!

How gorgeous, everything is so lovely!
The bookcases are what really got to me, Oh my this is all so lovely. I use white, a touch of silver,gold and celadon in my living room and entry so this is so pretty to me, thanks for sharing,Kathysue
elegant combination …love it
Oh such lovely pics. I wish my library looked like that. It will be my inspiration! Fiona
I’m Jewish and don’t particularly “decorate” my house for the holidays but I love looking at decorations and helping friends decorate, etc.
The green/silver/pink combination of decorations is just so gorgeous. That house is an absolute joy to look at.
BUT, what I’m wondering is: do those decorations in those colors “say Christmas” to people who celebrate? I mean, I know some hard-core decorators whose houses are red and green from top to bottom. While “I” like that green/silver/pink combination, does it “speak” to most others?
So lovely and soft. I would love to spend Christmas in that home. Thanks for posting these images again. A very pretty start to Christmas week.
Thanks Heather!

I am so happy you posted about Michelle’s home – I saw it in person a few weeks ago when we did a project for her and it is more gorgeous in person! She has amazing taste and style and I would love to have her do my home too.
Love the color combination. The rooms are fabulous. If you get a minute, check out my tree–I used sage and orange.
These photos are wonderful, so thanks for posting again
Regards
i love the sophisticated color palette!
