A Winter Vignette for the Coffee Table

I am doing a little departure from my usual decor after Christmas. Instead of just going back to the everyday decor I am incorporating a little bit of winter! I started with the coffee table. As I put Christmas away I NEED to fill those spaces and now I am doing things a little differently! I found these cute little vintage looking children, perched on snowmen way before Christmas. I saved them knowing just what I wanted to do with them! The little girl is tooting her horn, maybe saying,"come on, let's play"!!!

 She is sitting on a silver bowl turned upside down. The bowl was my mother-in-law's.

 And this is the little guy. I love the vintage LOOK of them and that they are "snowy".

 The snowflake lantern was a housewarming gift from my BIL and his wife when we moved in. I love it. It holds a tall cream candle that casts a soft glow at night. The way the sun is shining through it shows what it looks like at night too!!!

 Everything is sitting on this new runner that I found at KMart! It was the only one but the perfect size for my coffee table! The large sugar pinecone rests against the lantern.

 I added some greens and pinecones to mimic the runner.

 I love the pinecones that are tipped with "snow".

 I also decided that for the pillows all I had to do was flip the Christmas ones  over to the plain side. The other side is all glitzy for Christmas.

 The green and red match the colors of the runner too.

 

Thanks for your visit. I hope wherever you are, you are staying warm. I had to go out last night and it was 12 when I was comig home. Thank God for heated seats and car. I also have a heated steering wheel which I thing is the best thing since sliced bread:):):).

XO, Pinky
