I also fold the tree skirt and tulle and place it in the box too.
There you go, all closed up and ready to store til next year!
Now here are the "bare bones" of the room all cleaned and vacummed.
I have set a "Winter White" table with touches of greens that I will share tomorrow.
I have chosen to concentrate on a soothing green color palette for Winter. I feel it is very calming. Today the sun is shing BRIGHTLY after we got 11 inches of snow yesterday!!!
The plants and plant shelf were in the master bedroom for Christmas and have been brought back out here.
I have had this large fish basket for MANY years. It holds large pieces of bamboo.
I have had this bakers rack in here since we moved in but am going to make a change. I have decided I want to put the hutch that Joe made me in here. I think it will be a better fit for the room.
I love the 2 faux topiaries that I found in the Fall at Tuesday Morning. The green, pagoda shaped lantern holds a candle on a timer. It gives off a beautiful, soft glow in the evening.
Thanks so much for your visit. Now that I am home and getting organized I will be able to blog again!! I hope you are all staying warm: it was 3 degrees when I got up with wind chills between minus 15-20!!! BRRRRR. XO, Pinky

I LOVE it! I also love how the sun shines in that room. It looks so warm with all that snow outside.
ReplyDeleteI love the piece that Joe made for your eating area in the old house and think it will look great in your morning room.
LOVE! YOur sunroom is just that! A room that the sun spills in and glows all over everything! No wonder everything love to grow in that room! I need your green thumb!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Can't wait to see what you've done for a winter table.
ReplyDeleteI love your saying of the house taking a deep breath. I feel my home doing the same thing as I turned towards spring and sunshine and warmth. Here, and in my other home in England, it's been relatively mild...thank goodness...and I'm starting to see signs of spring everywhere. Your fresh, green plants and that clean crispness is very refreshing. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely room, so sunny and cheerful and your plants really work so well in there!
ReplyDeleteAlways so sad when Christmas is put away...your house is lovely! Thanks for sharing on the blog hop!

I love the light in your sun room and with the temps dropping I'm betting you love it too. Those topiaries are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteLove the bakers rack in the room Pinky…so much beautiful light in the room that makes your plants to happy!…hope Joe is feeling better!
ReplyDeletePinky,
ReplyDeleteThe green plants, live and fauz, are just stunning in your sunroom, dear friend!!! A welcoming sight after the Christmas is put to rest for another year!
I'll be back to see the switch in furniture, accessories and the Winter tablescape, soon!!!
Fondly,
Pat
Your room is filled with life and sunlight I love it!!!! Thank you for sharing at the Thursday Favorite Things Blog Hop . Big Hugs
ReplyDeleteThe green looks great! I'll take any color but white!! LOL... It's nice to see the sun and your room looks so nice lit up with it. Tearing down Christmas is the worst...I always question my sanity for putting all of that stuff up at that point! Hope Joe's back is better soon!
ReplyDeleteThese days I don't have much Christmas to put away as I've significantly cut back on decorating. Even so, it makes me happy when its all put away. With your Christmas tucked away, your room is sunny and bright.
ReplyDeleteI really like the calm and serene look you have going, Pinky. I always do that, too, after all the color & glitz of the holidays. Letting the house take a breath is a great way of expressing it.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks great Pinky! Thanx for coming to THT.
