Winter Decor
~ Our Breakfast Area

It’s only mid 40° outside today (brrrr!), but at least the sun is shining!
It really brightens up our breakfast area, and lifts my spirits too.  This is where we begin most of our days and also enjoy most of our meals.


Of a morning our Kitchen and Breakfast area usually gets lots of light, and of course if it's a sunny day it's even better!  Currently I have this look since putting away all the holiday decor.  I like it light and bright, and the creamy whites give it a calm neutral feel.  I've added a pop of color with the greenery and touches of gold, and some black with the iron pieces.




  
A closeup of the breakfast table decor and to show this beautiful tray, a gift from my youngest daughter for Christmas. I absolutely love it!
- I switched out the smaller tray I had here before and I’m enjoying the glow of this large, beautiful, golden tray and using it as part of our breakfast area table decor.





I enjoy styling this area and finding thrifty decor to change it up for the seasons!
- I painted our old step ladder with chalk paint a while back, it’s perfect for a corner and to display some treasures.
- I used some gold metallic paint to transform my terra-cotta pots for the topiaries up on the shelf.
I love what a little paint to do!
- I must have flowers always, and greenery. Whether fresh of faux, they bring me joy and add beauty to a space!






A closeup of this corner with my painted ladder and thrifty finds. I found that large pine cone out in our backyard.

I’m thinking about next month and Valentine’s Day. I usually have hearts around my home all year, it’s a favorite thing of mine ‘cause I love hearts.
::: This will be an easy transition to Spring!





A message on my chalkboard for now, "Warm Winter Wishes."




~ Warm winter wishes to you!
