Bauble Design, Are you holding a current Creative License.

Its almost time to get your Baubles out peeps and it can be a lot classier than I just made it sound.
I am not one for being traditional, I always like a little aaagh and oogh so I always try and mix things up little decor wise and the Holiday’s are always a perfect time for this.
Its the one time where its temporary and Husbands all around the world don’t realise they are giving us a Creative Licence to add things they would never normally say yes to.
Example 1: Husband comes home to branches hanging from the ceiling via ribbon and drawing pins with sparkly balls hanging from it.
Husband rolls eyes and gets on with life or Husband comments “oh how Christmassy it’s looking in here”.
Example 2: Its a random August Wednesday when Husband comes home and sees a flower garland hanging from the ceiling over the side table.
Husband rolls eyes and would say “whats that about did we just move into a terrarium, I hope you don’t think its staying like that”. OK fair call.

So here for you I have an actual creative License and you can add your image in and your expiry date and print it out.
Now lets get our baubles on. I have a great range of ideas to put to use.

Baubles on individual ribbons and no less than Neon to really keep on trend.
Baubles on Ribbons hung in a cascading manner to create their own chandelier.

So you don’t have quite enough Baubles lets just use the ribbon, see that’s our creative License in use right there.

Here is an example of getting your creative License before you have finished your exams.
They knew what they wanted to achieve but the eye for detail has escaped them.
Yes Bauble and lights can go together but its more about the baubles than the wires in between each light that is important. Lets pull its all out and start again. More Baubles less wire.
See where I was going with this, its got a little more finesse.
























Maybe the lights in the vase just aren’t working. Its time to abort this mission and start fresh. Lets just focus on the Baubles, They can look more effective in an awesome vase or Hurricane vase, Cloche or Bowl.

Lets talk about branches, twigs and sticks with Baubles. Thoughts?Well I see there are 2 ways when its comes to our ideas here, So Close and Just right.This one is tricky. So the branches are free but we need to make sure they are the right size and style for what we are wanting to do. I say find the branches and then decide. Don’t decide and then try and find the exact branch you may need a compass to achieve this.Here are some ideas and some not quite’s to get your thinking caps on.
Something strange happened with my text here and I am sorting it out.
Perfect thickness branch for the achieved look. A thin branch  with the size of those baubles would have lost the impact.

Great not over done, suits the styling and not too many Baubles and they are the right size for the branches used.

Quirky yes, probably Nordic but the effect is gone as the craziness of the branches out ways the baubles. I think the feel of Christmas is a little lost on this vine. 
Perfect, just perfect.
So tell me are you holding a current Creative License, what’s on the Christmas decor agenda.
