More Winter Decorating Fun...Simple Projects...

Since we are in a real cold spell here (-15 right now), I thought I'd share some more fun INDOOR winter decorating ideas and simple projects! I've been inspired by all of the pompoms 
I've seen this year and made a few to add to our home...




No one is safe from my pompoms...


I used wool roving yarn for a furry look...you can make them in minutes...there's lots of ideas on Pinterest.


I've added little vintage birds...


 and snowpeople...



I took this covered jar...
added some faux snow and a vintage winter photo...


and glued it (with E-6000 glue), 
to this tarnished silverplate candlestick...



I love how it looks.
It can be changed out for different seasons and occasions...


Another super simple project used this...


I simply wrapped the jute around 
the upside-down can a few times and knotted it...



and they worked well holding my LED candles in the window...


I love re-using things I have on hand for simple decorating!
I have a fun Pinterest board of my projects...
hope you'll stop by sometime!

I am joining~

Until next time...

    What cute ideas - I never really 'decorated' my house for winter, I would just leave up a few of the greens from Christmas and use richer colors than in spring/Summer - but I LOVE these ideas!! Now my brain is spinning, thinking of ideas!!

    I love the candlesticks and the photo snow globe. What a great idea! I have been looking for old ice skates but being in GA and TN you can't find them. Any ideas of where I may look on line?

    I love the vintage photo in a jar idea, Linda! Great ideas to keep busy indoors during the cold spell. My hands are almost too cold to type inside our house! Brrrrrrrrrrrr.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Brr, that is cold, Linda! It's cold here too, barely in the teens, but downright balmy compared to your temps:) Love your jar with the vintage photo. And the pom poms are a fun touch! I remember making those when I was a little girl:)

    I can't believe that I've never learned how to make pom Pomspom because I think they're so cute. I bought my mom a white fluffy pom pom wreath from Joanns Craft store for Christmas and I remember thinking "I could probably make this"... Now I definitely will. :)
    All your winter decorations look amazing Linda. I still can't believe how cold it is there...brrr...stay warm and keep creating!

    I love pompoms and always think I'll make a few but never do? I've used pompom trim and found a pompom scarf at a thrift store so use them. Its real cold here too, and decorating inside helps it feel warmer. Everything looks so pretty!

    OMG! I have never felt temps in the negative numbers before! I couldn't imagine how that feels. I would happily stay inside too. I like the cute projects that you made for your winter decor. It's always fun to think outside the box.
