"Flora & Fauna" Holiday at La Maison Kirzhner

“Flora & Fauna” Christmas Tree at La Maison Kirzhner. Holiday 2011.

Holiday this year was inspired by a mystical woodland “Flora & Fauna” theme involving furry and feathery creatures and enchanting delicate flowery delights.  One would encounter several curious little characters nestling lovingly within the fragrant 8 1/2-foot tall Douglas Fir, surrounded with peonies, hydrangeas, silk bows, cherry blossoms, dazzling crystal and mirror ornaments, and playful lights.  They’re friends with our favorite little woodland critter, Bonkers, and they come in all range from other furry bunny rabbits, sleepy little kittens, curious owls, pheasants, doves, robins, penguins, chicks, squirrels, to a flying white little piglet for a tree topper!  As part of our gift-giving this year, beloved guests to our annual Holiday party would receive a handmade miniature butterfly terrarium, containing bunnytails, mistletoes, aromatic eucalpytus, and lavender in small handblow glass globes. La Maison Kirzhner has become a signature home that boasts our love and penchant for meshing antique refineries with touches of humor and whim.  Our home comes very much alive especially around this time of year, creating a brand of magic that’s truly our own.
