INSPIRATION V]ZWROg
1. RIDE OUT
THE SEASON
An antique sled serves
as a nonperishable
centerpiece and a
pedestal for other
decorations in stylist
Alexandra Hedin’s
dining room. Its
weathered wooden
slats hold pine
branches and establish
the natural theme.
2. FOREST OF COLOR
Rather than using
traditional red and
green, Alexandra pulls
together a woodsy
scheme of brown,
khaki, and olive.
Wood-grain-pattern
napkins on the
diagonal are used
as place mats.
;i\jj\[;]fi;>l\jkj Simple, long-lasting touches keep casual spaces guest-ready. Stylist Alexandra Hedin shows you how. 2 1 by PAIGE PORTER FISCHER photos BILL HOLT produced by JANNA LUFKIN BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS DECEMBER 2009 81
