Decorating a Brooklyn Apartment for the Holidays
Most of our customers are working with a mantel, a windowsill and not much floor. At Tarzian West for Housewares in Park Slope, this collection is built for exactly that: pieces with presence that do not need a great room.
Advent Calendars. Wooden calendars with drawers and white-house scenes from One Hundred 80 Degrees, the kind that come back out every year.
Lights. String lights from Tag in laurel leaf, pinecone, twinkling star and vintage LED styles, plus LED house lights and battery-operated water globes.
Candles. Nutcracker and twig tapers, glittered tree and berry tree candles, deer head and Christmas tree tea lights, Pyropet scented candles and Tag pillar candles, taper holders and a proper candle snuffer.
Trees & Branches. Bottle brush trees with lights, Cody Foster's Rainbow Tree, heirloom glitter star tree toppers, sleigh bell branches and bell stems.
Dried & Natural. Wheat, lavender, gypsophila and bunny tail bunches for a mantel that lasts past December.
Scent counts too. Paddywax Cypress Fir room spray is the fastest way to make a small apartment feel like the season.
