Winter Decor

by leanneja on January 27, 2012 · 2 comments

Happy Friday!

I know a lot of you have already decorated for Valentine’s Day, but I still have my winter decor up.
I thought I’d share how I decorate for Winter before I take it all down next week.

For the front door, I just gathered 2 pine picks together and tied with ribbon to make a swag.

On the bottom shelf of the entry table are snowballs (styrofoam) balls under a glass cloche.

My favorite snowman and sled I’ve had for years.

The entry shelf.

A lot of my Winter decorations are hold overs from Christmas and ornaments.

A frosty tree and cute little penguin.

Snowmen seem to be my theme for Winter.

A sparkly snowflake ornament nestled in epsom salt.

My glitter bottles on the mirrored tray.

More glitter bottles and a lantern filled with ornaments.

Fluffy snowballs in the kitchen scale.

It’s great to be back home and back to regular blogging.
I appreciate your love and support more than you will ever know.
Happy Weekend!
