Little Scenes Around Our Home This Winter

It can be fun to look at the house with fresh eyes after all of the glitter comes down when Christmastime is over. 

This year instead of keeping a neutral and creamy palate, I wanted to actually decorate for winter.  

I kept up some of the greens and added in winter trees, a orangy pink and blues. I really do love the cozy that it's brought to our house post holiday. I'll show you around: 

Our Laundry Room / Mud Room : 

I know I have a lot of pictures of this but it's even more adorable in person and impossible to capture. 

I added 

💙 'snowy' greens with twinkly lights above the cabinets. 

💙 on the little step stool, a mini garland of glittering snowflakes 

💙 A wooden house with a cute light inside next to a paper tree 

💙The candle is Antique Candle Co - Pine Trees 

💙 I keep it convenient with my laundry sheets right up there along with my dryer balls, so easy! 

💙 Even our cleaning supplies are right there ready to be grabbed to clean bathrooms, counters, messes

Our Dining Room: 

With the big Christmas tree down I knew I couldn't keep this room empty. So I took out the ornaments that were in the centerpiece and left the rest until Valentines Day. I still love the same color scheme in there. It all matches our Hitchcock furniture perfectly: greens, golds, orange... 

🧡A few rose colored winter paper trees in there just add a new look for January 

🧡I don't think I could ever get tired of this centerpieces with the sprayed gold pinecones, glittering fruit, greens, magnolia leaves, brass candlesticks... 

Our Kitchen 

New 'curtains' from beautiful block print napkins on our brass bar really brightened up this space and I love it! 

🧡I kept the little snow covered antique houses on the windowsill 

🧡The teapots came back - I missed them 

🧡I don't have a close up of the art hanging but it's an adorable winter scene from Lore Pemberton and it makes the so charming right there

❤ Little mittens on the crock that holds all of our wooden spoons and a peek toward the baking center

❤ That Hot Cocoa pitcher I found at an antique shop and squealed out loud I loved it so much - I'll almost be sad when winter is over and I have to pack it away 

❤ This signed print too, found at an antique store - I adore that sled in the snow

❤ Grab and go cinnamon sugar and preserves in our jelly cupboard ready for all of that homemade bread I've been baking (another post on that soon) 

❤ On the other side of the kitchen (near the table) I have open shelving and I kept it simple for winter, all of the ironstone creamer, pitchers, and some ivory paper trees. 

Our Family Room 

💕all of the patterns I could find around our house I wanted in this room 

💕birthday flowers from my mom 

💕a big fat soy candle lit 

💕sugared apples and pinecones are still winter and a soft fabric winter tree too! 

💕The books I love to have out are back 

💕 I love how the mantle turned out - I kept all of the brass candlesticks, twinkle lights, and greenery and added in some wooden houses for coziness 

💕I made that paper garland from paper I found at an antique store

💕 another scene I'll be sad to pack up come spring

I don't have pictures of everything. More to come when I can. I do love this time of year. When it's bitter cold outside or when there's snow or ice, as long as we can be inside, it's delightfully cozy and warm.
