The Glam Pad adores the colorful, whimsical style of interior designers Lance Jackson and David Ecton, the dynamic duo behind Parker Kennedy Living.   Five years ago, Lance and David relocated from Atlanta about 70 miles northeast to the small town of Commerce, Georgia, where they purchased the century old residence of former Georgia Governor L.G. Hardman. Listed on the National Register, Lance and David have impeccably restored the Mediterranean Revival style Governor’s Mansion, documenting their progress on Instagram @thegovernorsmansion. The home has been transformed into a magical showplace, reflective of their style which they describe as Southern Regency with traditional Palm Beach overtones.

Today Lance and David are sharing a peek inside the Governor’s Mansion – in all it’s holiday finery! – along with instructions on how to make their exquisite vintage Christmas tree topiaries.

How to Make a Vintage Christmas Tree Topiary 

1. Pick your favorite planter or cachepot

2. Add a styrofoam cone to the inside – hot glue down

3. Pick your favorite glass vintage ball ornaments – shiny brites are the best.
4. Start from bottom up adding the shiny brites to the cone with hot glue.
5. Add larger shiny brites first & with your way to the top of the cone with smaller sizes.

6. Add tinsel garland to the openings between the shiny brites with hot glue.

Enjoy!
