Winter Vignette




This is another vignette that I put together using some of the things I used for Christmas. The wire basket was in the dining room filled with ornaments. I filled it with greenery, pine cones, and antler sheds. I had a tiny wreath hanging here on the mirror and then I found this wonderful white pine one that looks very real. I found it at a new to me shop that does interior design and they have some great things in the store. Most was pricey, but the Christmas stuff was 40% off before Christmas so I snatched up this wreath. I brought the buffet lamps in from the dining room and will show you what went in their place in the dining room another time.

See how real this wreath looks. The owner said she has to preorder them early because they sell so quickly.
She only carries greenery that looks real.

This shows the tiny wreath I had here for Christmas. Well, until I got the new one.

I have had this little bird for years and decided he would be cute sitting on top of the greenery.






Well, that's another winter vignette. We will see how long it stays this way. wink

Very pretty. Every year after Christmas I find it a relief to clear out everything...and before long I am stressing what to put in place! It's never ending!

Kim, I love this! That wreath is spectacular - I never would have guessed it wasn't real by looking at it. And the wire basket filled with pine cones and antlers is perfect for winter!

Yvonne @ StoneGable said...

Kim, You are a smart one!!! I love any decorations that can be used for more than one season. Love the realistic faux wreath!!! Much less messy!

Looks wonderful, Kim. The wreath is fabulous!

That is a beautiful wreath! Love it on the mirror too. That's a nice way to bring some warmth into the room during these cold grey months. Although, today is warm! LOL! I'm sure this is just a tease from mother nature though.

beautiful, Kim, as always ... also thank you for hosting such an inspiring party each week!

Olive said...

Love it Kim. Wreaths are awfully expensive. I snap them up anytime they are a good price.

Pamela Graham said...

I'm loving it all! What an inspiration you are!! Pamie G.

Shari @ turnstylevogue.com said...

It all looks so well put together. Beautiful. I love that wreath and thought it was real when I first saw it. I tend to use real green since I have such easy access to them, but they always create a mess to clean up by the time Christmas is over. You are much smarter than I am :) Have a great day!

Great find on the wreath. We have one very similar that I put away after Christmas but I just might get it back out and put some pine cones in it myself! -Tonya

Laurie said...

That wreath is so realistic, I love it, what you have created looks perfect for winter without looking Christmassy! Does that make sense?? It looks very out doorsy natural, my favorite look!

Elizabeth (Blue Clear Sky) said...

Wow, it does look real. Lovely winter look and I'm a fan of greenery and pinecones any time.

Sarah said...

Love the new larger wreath on that gorgeous mirror, Kim. Your winter vignette looks welcoming.

Looks perfect Kim, and I agree the wreath looks real. It is so nice to find one like that, you can use it for years and never tire of it.

Susie T said...

What a beautiful foyer vignette! Love the white pine wreath - you would never know that it is faux! hehe. I love all your other natural elements. It still has the feel of winter but without the Holiday vibe. Love It! Susie
