My Winter Mantel
Create a Winter Mantel to bridge the seasons! Christmas is put away, and Valentines Day is still weeks away…so what to do…let’s decorate for winter.

I think there is never a bad time for decorating. It helps me to look forward to the changing seasons and upcoming holidays. It’s especially helpful during the loooooooooong winters/springs we have here. Basically our winters start in October/November and they don’t end until May…for reals. And it can be (I mean IS…who are we kidding here) very very tedious and depressing. So I decorate. It makes the house cheery and puts a smile on my face.

This year, like in other years mantels, I ‘shopped’ around my home. I certainly have enough stuff that I don’t need to buy anything new…so I scoured my decorations, and went room to room looking for things that would work. I knew I wanted white, and earthy…





Do you decorate all year round?








Thank you for the inspiration! We just tucked Christmas away and the mantel is looking a bit forlorn. I just love your snowflakes. Did you make them? ~Kelly

Love the earthy elements mixed with the whimsy trees and snowflakes. Also love those “snowballs”! Super.
Oh my gosh, I just want to go in there and sit all day. Beautiful!
Absolutely beautiful! The yarn snow balls are such a great idea! I may have to steal that one!
