Broderie Room for Christmas

Post 3 on the Phipps Conservatory Christmas Show 2011.
The Broderie Room as I have described in previous posts is often described as the wedding room. During this exhibit it was decorated to represent Clara's love for the Nutcracker that helped transform him from a doll to the Prince. It was even recommended that you make a wish in the wishing well to find your own true love.
The set up was simple but still gave a dramatic effect with the red and white poinsettia against the green hedges. Height was given by urns with poinsettia trees along the sides.  Red fabric swags gave a romantic quality against the windows surrounding the room.  Again I strongly suggest that you go and see this exhibit, and who knows your wish may come true.

I love the look of the fabric with the windows and plantings
