Valentine Vignette

My idea of decorating for Valentines Day is pretty simple...... if I have plenty of time, I decorate quite a bit.....

An After Christmas Kitchen Herb Garden

After packing up all the Christmas decor in the kitchen,   I had a hard time deciding what to do next......
Winter decor? no....I'm already tired of winter......Valentine's Day?  no.....  I just put away all of that red stuff!     

The Reason for the Season

I created several Nativity vignettes in the living room cabinet.....  

A Desert Rose Christmas

 

 
Today I'm sharing a cabinet in the living room that holds lots of treasures and precious memories.....

Living Room Christmas Mantel

  Christmas is just around the corner and
 I'm just now getting the mantel in the living room decorated!    Guess I'll have to leave it decorated for Christmas until Valentines Day to get my money's worth.....lol!

The Christmas Front Room

About this time every year,   I begin to feel overwhelmed with all the hustle and bustle of Christmas.  AND... our home was beginning to look more like a cluttered store than a COZY place to relax and enjoy the season!
I decluttered some of the vignettes around the house that I had created earlier in the season to give them a fresh look....  

Christmas Kitchen Cabinets...Behind the Scene's

 I've finished decorating our kitchen for Christmas,  and before I call it a "wrap" I wanted to share a peek behind the scenes in my kitchen cabinets......    

Christmas Greenhouse in the Sunroom

I created a Christmas Greenhouse inside the armoire that's in a sunny corner of the sunroom. 

I married several pieces together to make my mini faux greenhouse.....The bottom is a little white metal pedestal.....over the pedestal is a white wooden lift ....on top of the lift is a green wooden crate that says "North Pole Greenhouse & Nursery".....and on top of the crate is a metal piece I had on hand that reminded me of a greenhouse!

I decorated around the greenhouse with velvet mushrooms and a brass deer...

Simplified Christmas Tree

In the past,  I've literally spent hours ....and hours.....decorating our Christmas tree.   Now that we are empty nesters,   I want our tree to be "light weigh" (some of those tree's weight a ton. lol)    I also want the decor on it to be completed in a couple of hours and be simple but elegant!

A Cozy Christmas Family Room

I just need to tie up a few loose decorating ends in our Christmas family room and I can call it a "wrap"  

Santa & Mrs Claus Christmas Mantel

The stars of my 2024 Christmas mantel are Santa & Mrs Claus......

Nutcracker Vignette's on the Piano

I created a Nutcracker vignette on the piano "mantel" and for a whimsical touch I put a vignette inside the piano .......

Christmas Sunroom

Today, I'm excited to share the progress I've made in decorating the sunroom for Christmas....

My Christmas Hall Bath

The hall bath is the go to bathroom for all our family and friends so I try to have it decorated for the seasons and holidays.

Christmas Hoosier

The sunny window next to the Hoosier is my favorite place to sit and watch the sun come up as I sip on a morning cup of coffee......
