Winter Window Candlescape with a little bit of Love!

Christmas may be over but it's still winter so I changed our bay window to a winter candlescape theme.

My, little, white sled, an assortment of votives and some shiny green leaves, from our camellia tree, were the beginnings of the creation for the new look. 
Red and white are almost always my go to colors. 

Our, old, white painted, fireplace screen adds an interesting depth to the background in the window.

I love a red berry wreath especially when adorned with hearts.

The owl that was on display as a part of the window's Christmas decor is sticking around for the rest of winter. He's just too cute to put away!

An inverted ironstone compote with a red transferware plate created an interesting base for the vignette on top.

Red transferware saucers are placed underneath  many of the votives.

Candles are always just so romantic any ole time of the year.

Epsom salt covers the outside of this votive jar.

A canvas banner of love made it's debut again for Valentine's day.

I think the white rustic crate really makes a great impact to the overall setting.

Another piece of transferware is tucked inside the hanging lantern for a little surprise.

A bouquet of miniature silk roses hangs in a spot that needed just a little something.

 The Waterford heart came from one of my sweet girls for Christmas several years ago. It always makes me sigh when I come across it every year!
I'm looking forward to creating a new tablescape and celebrating an extra special day of  "Love" this year.

Christmas Window in our Window

I've fallen quite a bit behind in my posts for the Holiday season. The unexpected trip back home and having my daughter here from NY were priorities. 
Now, I can get on with sharing the decor that I actually started on Nov. 1st!

Our bay window all decked out for Christmas in the kitchen.

 I love creating a window in a window display as I have done for seasons before.

Our little personalized stockings, that I made last year, accent the eight paned display.

They hung from our mantel for Christmas  last year.
 

The bay window's ledge is doubling as a sideboard for plates, flatware and napkins.

I added the grain sack stripes to the napkins for our Christmas tablescape last year, too.

 These plates were a score, last summer, from the Salvation Army. They're vintage plates by 
Everyday Gibson.
I'll be using them for our tablescape for "just two" for our Christmas dinner and I'll be sharing it after we enjoy our very special time together.

I brought our outside lantern in.

A fluffy white owl is displayed on a vintage wooden hanger that I shared in an earlier post.



 I love this penguin sitting in my Pfaltzgraff bowl.
 
T. Bear, my beloved, antique, german teddy is driving a Christmas delivery truck.

 I think it's worth another look...

 or maybe two.

And here's everything in full view.




Wishing you all a very Happy Holiday and New Year!

 Love, Hugs and Kisses,

JP

"Owl" I want for Christmas is... a Christmas Display Idea for You!


 "Hoooo," can resist a fluffy white Christmas owl?

Not me! 

My project started with a vintage, wooden hanger that I painted white. I turned it into a really adorable Christmas display.

Now, I warn you...it's cuteness just might make you want to make a similar one, too!

"Owl" I want for Christmas is YOU!

He is so darn adorable!

A strand of wooden cranberry beads, hot glued into place, created the strand for the simple paper banner. Mine is basic...you can get a lot more creative with yours. 
The possibilities are endless!

I was in a rush to get our window done...you'll be seeing that whole reveal, soon

and this adorable little guy

and more of this, really old, tiny one, too!
  Love, Hugs and Kisses,
JP
and Gucci, too!

Can you see him? He's playing "peek-a-boo!

I love your sweet comments, but my reply's won't always get to you.
