While many of you are already decorating for Valentine's day, I'm still embracing the beauty of winter. What better time to enjoy the subtle colors of white, cream, and silver, with splashes of green ?
Do you like the "ribbon" around my candles?Can you guess what it is?
You probably have some in your kitchen too.
It's foil that I folded and taped to the candles!

This picture is for Sally who asked if I was done with my silver collection.
There's already an addition of two mercury glass votives. They were 90% off. I HAD to buy them.

Thanks for all the inspiration you share with us!!
Everything looks great. I found some faux mercury glass at Michaels a few weeks ago. Apparently they think it's Christmas clearance. OK by me. Mimi
I'm not ready to swap out winter decorations yet either! I love winter greenery and sparky sliver.
Your flakes are gorgeous.
I also love silver and white. I love your mantle and I am enjoying your blog
Joy, you are so creative!! I just found your blog and I am so inspired to finish off some projects around my house. I especially like your tutorials, there are so many wonderful ideas there, thank you so much!! ~cindy s~
you are so creative... foil!!! i never would have thought about that. thanks for the great tip & saving me $$$ too!!!
I love your winter decor. It's very much still winter here as the snow is coming down as I sit here and type.
Very nice; keep showing us your pics.
Your house is a winter wonderland! I love it! And I love the foil around the candles, what a great way to use what you have!
It is all beautiful! My favorite is the glass jar with the let it snow in it~your mercury collection is fabulous also. I love that you have a Landen as well!

Love it, love it, love it!
I love the tin foil idea!
I just found your blog and love it! Thanks for all the cute ideas. I have a question for you. I've been wanting to paint my dining room table black for sometime now. It's just a basic pine wood table, with polyurethane on it, but no stain. Do you think I should just sand it to get the polyurethane off, or should I use something to strip it off? Also, would you spray paint it, or use a brush?
Thanks again!--Rebecca
I love your winter decor. The silver collection is just perfect for the frosty days this season.
