Hi all!!! Hope you all had a blessed week... I had a busy one , so not posted or partied in awhile!!!!! I also have the Christmas Cold...tis the season!!! Lol . I hate to say goodbye to the holidays so.... I don't !!!! I keep up greens , burn holiday candles , and put up what I call my " Winter Decorations" !!!!! I think it eases the sting of the post holiday Ho Hums...am I the only one that gets those? Lol So here are some Winter ideas that still keep me in the Christmas spirit a little longer!!!! Happy New Year my friends!!!!!!
So pretty!

Gorgeous!It seems like I've come out in the summer version of your cold - raging sore throat, gritty eyes, headache supremo! Lol Haven't had this in years, so I'm feeling a whole heap of sympathy for the two of us! ;-) I love your idea of hanging onto the holiday spirit, but living in the 'sweatbox' of an Australian summer, and having to deal with higher than average humidity this year, I'm afraid I didn't wait to put the whole bling-thing away for another year! I feel somewhat guilty for saying this, but I'm loving my bland white walls again!! Lol Here's wishing you and yours a wonderful happy and healthy new years. heather x

Your winter decor is very lovely - I'm pining for a dough bowl as big as yours - my Santa forgot mine this year ;-)
ReplyDeleteYour winter decorations are so pretty and charming! Love the holly imprinted candle!
ReplyDeleteComing from Masterpiece Monday! Blessings to you in the New Year!
I definitely do Winter decorations and leave some of my 19 trees up. I have 5 trees up and decorated for Valentine's Day and a winter tree or two.... I also do winter outside decorations too!!
ReplyDeleteYours are so pretty!!

Visiting for the first time today; you have a lovely home. I love the "hope" on the mantel. Pinning so I don't forget that idea!

Very pretty! I won't be taking everything down either, I need to keep it cheery for January...usually the dreariest month. I love what you've done.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
Saw you sharing at Life on Lakeshore Drive

Very pretty! I love that you still have your greenery. I took all of our Christmas things down because I want to get started on a few painting projects before I head back to work. Our greenery was too dry to keep, but I am still using our mercury glass pieces and pinecones for a bit of a wintry feel. Wishing you all the best in this New Year.
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful post! I love red and white! You have created such a warm and inviting cottage feeling in your home.
Thank you for sharing and for hosting, my dear!
Blessings,

Hi Debbie!
ReplyDeleteI'm totally in love with your fire place! I love all the winter decorations and same as you it's sad to see holiday and festive atmosphere go, so I'm keeping them as long as I can ;)
Since I only use fresh greenery for the holidays I had to take mine down. It was a little (lot) worn and weathered and not the shabby kind we like. :). I put away anything red from the holidays but kept the white sled and anything to do with snow and brought out the snowmen for the month of Jan and Feb. I am totally in love with your white tulips. :) xo
ReplyDeleteThat mantel is amazing. Love the contrast and the colors that spark interest. All your Wintery touches are just so beautiful!

ReplyDeleteYour winter decorations are so pretty and fresh! I love your touches of red without having it be overpowering. Just lovely!
ReplyDeleteYour displays look so pretty. What a great way to decorate your home after Christmas. I love the tiny ladder the most I think. The linen and candles on the steps are a wonderful touch that I have to remember.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. I want to do a winter theme also, but I will take most of the Christmas decorations down. What's left will be the base of my winter theme. Thanks for the inspiration. Dropping by for the Clever Chick's party!
