I have really enjoyed winter this year, probably more than ever. I've enjoyed the cold, bright days and the cozy, dark evenings. But after the holidays, I was ready to brighten things up a bit. I love some of my favorite artwork pieces layered on the mantel. It's bright and cheerful, and that's exactly what I wanted.
A very dear friend gifted me a handmade garland that I absolutely adore. It's happy and colorful, and so perfect in my dining room!
I hope you are enjoying this month, as well. I've already spotted tulips at the grocery store, and I can't wait to by the first bunch of the year!
Your house looks beautiful, Julia. Love the garland - it lends a great splash of color. The house always looks so bare when the tree is taken down and all the decorations put away. I was thinking a few flowers placed here and there might do the trick here. Tulips would be lovely.
ReplyDeleteHi Susan! Flowers always help to brighten up a home... especially my favorite - tulips!
DeleteLove the garland, Julia; I just started crocheting one for my kitchen window. Bring on the COLOUR!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue! Your kitchen window garland looks fabulous.
DeleteYay! Now I don't feel so bad about waiting months to send it! The things I miss most (besides the twinkling tree) are the pillows I made for the holidays. I'm going to have to make some new bright ones soon!
ReplyDeleteHi Amber! I love my garland probably more than you know. It makes me happy every time I look at it. Thank you! I can't wait to see your new pillow covers.
DeleteI am also loving winter this year and think that some colour definitely lifts the spirits. The garland is so pretty. x
