Neutral Winter Decor

Oh, how I really love winter.

I love all four seasons.

Winter is second only to autumn as my favorite.

It's still winter here, and can be until late March,

though our snow is melting rapidly for now.

Most of it melted just today.

I do hope the snow comes back soon, though;

 it's SO pretty!

If it must be winter, I say

LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW!

******************************************************

Post-Christmas winter decor

 is kept simple and light around here.

Lots of whites and silver all around

keeping things fresh enough for the time being.

I have a bajillion candles too -

and burn them all day and most of the evening as well.

And most of you know how I love my birdies.

One may pretty much find them everywhere around here.

I am not one to totally get rid of all our Christmas decor

the minute the holidays are over -

just the really obvious stuff.

The white and neutral winter decor stays out

 until February when the St. Valentine's decor takes its place.

So out it goes in February, but not any sooner than that:

 whether/weather!

Snow flakes, snowmen, pine cones, etc.

keep things delightfully WINTER.

Because it is still winter!

It's going to remain winter for a long while, too!

See the white heart shaped plates hiding under

my white wire teapot above?

They'll be replacing the pine cones ones soon enough.

I'll either be putting some live herbs inside these crocks

or put them away for another year.

But for right now there's extra large tea lights inside

to help keep things in a warm glow during short days

and long cold winter nights!

The foyer changes often, as it doesn't even look like this now.

I put my French antique bisque clock back in the bedroom

and placed my tall white feather tree there in its stead.

I will try to show you it later, it's just too dark to try now.

(Sorry to tease.)

OK here below is now how I have it.

So I didn't tease you very long, haha.

Still apologize for all the shadows and graininess.

Having a very busy day working and didn't have time to get out the lamps for pic. : - )

I have lots more to share, so stay tuned!

This is getting too long,

 so I must share winter decor in parts.

I am still upset at myself that I never showed you Christmas!

I had every square inch of this house decorated, too!

I am determined not to let winter completely go by

without sharing at least a few more decor posts this time!

Sorry I have been away so long.

Romeo and I have just been busy

 watching the snow.

Hope to be back soon with Part 2 of this post!

As always, thank you for stopping by.
