As many of you know, I am the Vice President of the DC Chapter of the National Association of Productivity & Organizing Professionals (NAPO-WDC). So clearly, I spend a lot of time learning from my knowledgable organizing and productivity colleagues. One thing I have learned is that season-specific decor often creates clutter. In this issue, we will share tips for simplifying the foundational pieces used in tablescapes and ideas for easy seasonal decor updates throughout the year. 





NEUTRAL BASE
What do clear glass, white pottery, silver, wood, and wicker all have in common? They are all neutral! These materials make great base vessels to hold your changing decor throughout the year. Whether it is a bowl, vase, jar, or tray, you do not need to change this base – even when the season changes or when you just get tired of the filler. No need to go out and purchase new vessels, just shop your home for them. Cake stands and glass floral-delivery vases are two of our favorites.



EASY FILLER 
One can find beautiful holiday and seasonal decor inspiration online and in shop windows. However, most of us do not want to store these one-month or one-season items for the rest of the year. Look to nature and everyday items for ways to customize these vessels year round. Items such as candies, fruit, leaves, and nuts are all easily accessible and affordable. We especially like to use items that are compostable after the season is over. The Samara Interiors Décor Guides provide many vase, bowl, and basket filler ideas.
