Balsam Hill

 

Natalee Bowen & Balsam Hill Collaboration 
Bring Luxe Holiday Style to Life

At Indah Island, we believe that style is not just about decor—it’s about
creating an atmosphere that makes people feel at home. This Christmas
season, Natalee Bowen, founder of Indah Island and Hamptons Living
magazine, has teamed up with Balsam Hill to do just that.
Known for her beautiful Hamptons-inspired aesthetic, Natalee’s
collaboration with Balsam Hill blends timeless elegance with a cozy, festive
charm that turns every home into a holiday haven.
Balsam Hill has earned its reputation as the go-to source for realistic, highquality holiday trees, wreaths, garlands, and seasonal decor. Their
dedication to craftsmanship and quality makes them a natural partner for
Natalee, whose design ethos is centred on creating beautiful, inviting
spaces that feel luxurious yet approachable.

When it comes to holiday decor, Natalee is all about timeless elegance and quality
pieces that can be enjoyed year after year. Balsam Hill's selection perfectly
complements her Hamptons-inspired interiors, with options that are both versatile
and unique. The brand’s commitment to creating lifelike and beautifully designed
pieces ensures that each tree and decorative item adds a touch of holiday magic
without overwhelming the space.
In this collaboration, Natalee styled several spaces, sharing her expertise on how to
create balanced holiday arrangements that work with existing interiors.
Her design approach features soft, neutral palettes mixed with classic touches of
greenery and metallics, ideal for creating a cohesive look throughout the home. In true
Hamptons style, Natalee incorporates natural textures, fresh blooms, and thoughtful
layering to achieve a warm and inviting holiday atmosphere.

Bringing the Outdoors In
Balsam Hill's lush wreaths and garlands make it easy to extend the holiday decor to
porches, entryways, and dining spaces. Natalee showcases ways to effortlessly bring
the outdoors in by combining Balsam Hill’s lifelike greenery with her signature
aesthetic. Her tips include layering garlands around doorways and mantels, arranging
wreaths in unexpected spaces, and adding personal touches, like ribbon or lights, to
make each piece her own.

Tips for Creating Your Own Festive Look
For those looking to recreate Natalee’s holiday style at home, she suggests
starting with a statement tree from Balsam Hill, paired with minimal yet
impactful accessories. Choose a palette that complements your decor and let
each piece shine. Natalee encourages using greenery to add texture and warmth
throughout the home, creating a seamless and sophisticated holiday look.

A Final Word from Natalee
"I love how Balsam Hill’s pieces instantly add a sense of warmth and
sophistication to any space. This collaboration has been such a joy to bring
together, and I hope it inspires others to create beautiful holiday memories in
their own homes," says Natalee.
This partnership between Natalee Bowen and Balsam Hill is a perfect example of
how two brands can come together to offer something truly special. As the
holidays draw near, we’re excited to share this journey with you and hope it
inspires a season of warmth, beauty, and togetherness.

Transforming Hallways: From Passages to Stunning Hamptons-Inspired Spaces

Hallways

The Overlooked Canvas of Your Home

Often dismissed as mere passageways, hallways hold incredible potential to enhance the flow and style of your home. With a little creativity, you can transform these transitional spaces into captivating areas that reflect your personality and embrace the timeless elegance of Hampton's design.

What to Call It

While "hallway" is the most common term, consider calling it a corridor or foyer, depending on its layout and function. Regardless of the name, it deserves attention!

How to Style Your Hallway

Play with Colour: Choose a bold or soothing colour palette that complements your home’s aesthetic. Light shades reminiscent of coastal hues can create an airy feel, while deep tones add drama and warmth, capturing that classic Hamptons vibe.

Artistic Expressions: Turn your hallway into a mini-gallery. Hang a curated collection of artwork or family photos to tell your story and spark conversations, all while keeping with the sophisticated style of Hamptons interiors.

Lighting That Inspires: Illuminate your hallway with striking light fixtures—think wall sconces, pendant lights, or a statement chandelier. Good lighting not only brightens the space but also highlights your design choices, enhancing that airy Hamptons feel.

Function Meets Style: Incorporate functional elements like coat hooks, a stylish console table, or a bench for added convenience. This makes the hallway practical without sacrificing the elegance associated with the Hamptons style.

Bring in Nature: Add a touch of greenery with low-maintenance plants. They can enliven the hallway and improve air quality, making the space feel fresh and inviting, much like the beautiful landscapes of the Hamptons.
