Centerpiece For Winter on Our Dining Room Table

A bright and sunny day always makes me smile, even if it is winter…and beautiful flowers do that too!

Winter vibes in our dining room. Some evergreens tucked into a previous flower arrangement, and a layered look using a white wooden riser, evergreen charger, and a golden dish for this simple winter centerpiece.

~ I hope you’ve had much to smile about today!

Cozy Winter Decor

Keeping it simple with a little refresh here for winter.

I enjoy using pillow covers to easily change up my decor. And, it’s such an easy way to add color to a neutral space.

I chose to use two sets of pillow covers here, the black and white checked and solid green. The wall shelf is easy to change with the seasons and holidays.  A pair of mini trees add a nice touch for winter.  A window mirror with a simple wreath attached, a pair of candle holders, and I added some checked ribbon to the trees to match the checked pillows.

I’m currently dreaming of ideas for spring while staying cozy and warm.  We’re in for freezing temps this weekend with a winter storm bringing the possibility of snow and ice!

Simple Winter Styled Shelf

Winter vibes!

My love for green and gold with this simple and elegant shelf styling.

It's January, so I've kept a few pine trees around for my winter decor.  I'm keeping it simple with this winter styled shelf.

A pair of gold glass candle holders on pillar candle holders, and a mini tree in a pretty box up on a pedestal. 

 

Just enough to chase away the winter blahs!

Christmas Table Decor

Time to set the table!  Christmas is right around the corner, and one of the areas I enjoy decorating for the Christmas holiday is our dining table.  Setting a pretty table is a real joy for me, I enjoy the creative process and endless possibilities.

This year I am loving lots of green, gold and creamy white.

These evergreen pine chargers I've had for a while, they work well for the holidays.  I used them under my candle holders and centerpiece this year, and I really like the look.

I layered each place setting using a round placemat, pretty charger, stack of plates, a green cloth napkin and gold glass pinecone ornament, and I tucked in a little pick of greenery with a gold pinecone.

To this end of the table I added a small tiered tray I decorated for Christmas.

Here's a close up of my Christmas themed tiered tray.

I am ready for Christmas!

  

 

Christmas Holiday Decor ~ Our Family Room

Decorating for the holidays has always been fun for me.  I enjoy opening up my bins that have been stored away all year and start the process.

I don't always have a plan, and I don't always use everything that I have either.  I have collected plenty of holiday decor over the years, and well, I suppose one of the good things about that is I have options.

And, I've often purchased "after-Christmas" sale items that have been forgotten about until I see them!  That's always a fun surprise too!

Our fireplace area and mantel is a favorite to decorate, I enjoy changing the look to this space throughout the seasons as well as for the holidays.

I went with a green, gold, and cream or white color scheme this year.  I purchased a new wreath for this year however everything else I already had.  I liked the simple wreath and figured it would be perfect for after the holidays for winter decor too.  I have an iron piece layered over the mirror which I hung the wreath from.

I added an evergreen garland that had twinkle lights, a couple of small Christmas trees, and dressed up my candleholders with ribbon, pinecones and greenery, a pair of mini wreaths on the corbels, a gold beaded garland, and a "Merry Chrismas" sign completed the look.

Across from the fireplace is this cozy area of our family room.  I continued the same color scheme over here.  I used a variety of my pillow covers in green, gold and cream and a fun Christmas tree pillow.

Up on the wall sconces I used a pair of tree shaped plants tucked into terra cotta pots I'd painted gold long ago, and added a mini ball ornament on top of each plant so they'd look like mini Christmas trees.

I had purchased the pretty gold wreath back in the fall and decided to hang it on the metal wall piece, I loved the look for Christmas and that it worked well with the gold potted mini trees on the sconces.  Gold metallic leaves on the end table added more pops of gold, while more greenery and mini wreaths added more green!

   

Christmas will be here soon!

 

 

Simple Christmas Table Decor & Centerpiece

Playing with table decor ideas for Christmas...

I was wanting an easy table setting that I could use for everyday, one that had my table looking festive and fun on the ready throughout the holidays.  

I'm enjoying green and gold this holiday season so I went looking through my stash of decor items and put this simple look together.

I had the green table cloth and the pretty lacey golden vinyl placemats, I recently ordered the gold table runner for the center and it's perfect.

Also I changed up my box centerpiece with some holiday greenery and gold ornaments.  A pretty candle holder in the center snugged by a mini wreath completed the look.  I've had loads of fun changing this box seasonally and for the holidays.

Now I can easily dress the table with plates, napkins and tableware as needed.  I can keep this simple look the rest of the time.

Happy Decorating!

Fall & Thanksgiving Table Decor

Decorating my home has always brought me joy.

Adding seasonal and holiday touches gives me a creative outlet, it fuels my soul.

And, styling a table is always fun, whether a simple casual setting or a more elaborate fancy or formal look.

From the imagined creative plan to seeing the end result, my heart is happy doing it!

~ My simple Fall & Thanksgiving table decor.  In keeping with the gold tones I've used for this fall season, I added a fall floral pick with golden leaves and a creamy colored mini pumpkin.  My gold flatware and crystal glasses were the perfect touch to fancy it up a bit.

Thanksgiving is almost here!

 

Fall Centerpiece

It’s been a “leave the back door open” kind of day…A warm November day, beautiful and sunny. We’ve had a few of them this week.

This view along with a little fresh air and sunshine is making me smile today!

I've enjoyed this box and changing it for the seasons and holidays.  Here I've given it some fall picks with golden toned leaves and cream colored pumpkins, and a pretty cut-crystal candle holder in the center.

I'll be sharing my fall & Thanksgiving table decor soon.  I love to decorate the table!
