The last few years I've let greenery and twinkling lights linger through January to beat the winter blahs. As soon as I unwrapped these beautiful metallic snowflake ornaments that Dear Firstborn embroidered, I knew I wanted to feature them in my winter decor.

Today I'll show you how simply I transitioned my Christmas mantel to welcome winter.

Here, you can see I kept the remaining greenery and tiny lights but I swapped the trio of wreaths for my trio of snowflakes and added a frame to showcase them. Aren't they lovely?!

  1. Cecilia, those cross-stitch snowflakes are a perfect winter complement to your paperwhites and greenery. We received the actual thing on Friday - 10"! I much prefer the kind you have, but cozy is key in both situations. Thank you for the invitation to share our winter transitions with readers. It helped me put pen to paper, so to speak, in sharing our new home.

  2. Cross stitch was the first crafty skill I learned as a little girl and it's always held a special place in my heart. Darling! Enjoy your new winter view and stay warm!

  3. I think your Dear Firstborn needs to share a tutorial on how to make those gorgeous snowflake ornaments - gah - I love them so much! They're stunning! I love the thread, the design, the ribbon - I just love it all! Your mantel is really pretty and such a great way to transition from one season to the next. Thanks so much for putting this hop together and for inviting me to be a part of it. I really appreciate it. Sending you hugs for a joy-filled winter season, CoCo
