{ Refreshing Winter Dining Room Decor }

Happy Friday pals!! This vacation week has flown by...Like where does time go?! I can't believe Christmas is over too, not enough t i m e!! I feel like this year's holiday season has been a wash. From being sick for 3.5 weeks two which were nearly immobile, accidents, etc.. I got maybe a week of cozy magic in. This leads me to today's post..WINTER DECOR!! Now, before I get nasty emails, I always start Christmas decor November 1st & take down Jan 1st. This year since our holiday season wasn't the best, I took the Christmas decor down the 26th. I needed a fresh start so I transitioned from Christmas to fresh winter decor. For some reason I crave fresh greens, ticking stripe goods, whites, creams & warm textured items.  Today I'm sharing a little cozy corner in our dining room I styled...I got the piece just before Christmas & was going to paint it, but loved the rich tones especially since it matches our barn door across the way in the dining room. I styled it with some of my favorite dishes & added a chippy white mantel. Come see more below...

 

The warmth this little rickety homemade piece of furniture adds so much charm to our dining space. The cozy vintage inspired dishes, ticking stripe cloths & white dishware complete these old shelves.

 

"Sunday Specials". Kate Spade dishes from @homegoods .


 

I love pine trees, so winter decor is right up my alley. My mom dropped off this adorable little white vase with a simple painted pine tree & well it fit perfectly here. 


I needed a bit of heights to this area, so I layered an old white chippy shelf I had. I set a bronzed pig bank from @potterybarn up there along with a cozy little lamp, faux baked goods etc.. 


 


 

Although all our Christmas decor is put away, the bare pine trees will stay up until February-ish..



 

What do you think about this "after" Christmas winter decor? Do you decorate for winter or even like winter decor? I sure do, & it can be so refreshing. 

HAPPY FRIDAY!
