It was an easy decision to go with a "Winter Wonderland" look for this challenge, because I love the cozy feeling that it brings. And, even though I don't live in Texas and couldn't personally shop in Decorator's Warehouse </span></span><span style="font-family: helvetica; text-align: left;">60,000 square foot space, I was able to order all of my fabulous trimmings from their <a href="https://decoratorswarehouse.com"><span style="color: red;">website</span></a>!</span></div><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">When decorating my tree, the first thing I added were these incredible <a href="https://decoratorswarehouse.com/twinkle-cluster-lights-warm-white-760-led-lights-with-timer-24-9ft-green-strand/"><span style="color: red;">cluster lights</span></a>. They're tiny (but mighty) and sure do make your tree sparkle, especially thanks to the multi-flash patterns.

Valentine's Day is over and Spring has yet to arrive. That might leave some of us wondering how to decorate our homes for the "in between." As tempted as I am to get out our bunnies and seasonal colors, I'm going to try to hold off a little longer. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">In the meantime, I decided to go for a simple, hopefully cozy, look. To achieve that, I shopped our house. Like here in our great room, where I borrowed an ottoman from our bedroom and *scooched* it up against one end of our sofa so that it resembles a comfy chaise. Of course, I strategically placed a throw to cover up the fact that they are two separate pieces. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdKRDBrR0e7p4v3g39FGYEH8aLF80_-Pnq9Em9osy5xFOfnzH4_U-Lxio-ALF6MOYdr0dZkYpTpaihp_BWyna6nA8yp_76lbncaY7zI-2Fb6FVZivZ_YImiebgtEcmDx8cDi8ayKxf3gM/s2048/earlyspringgreatleft.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdKRDBrR0e7p4v3g39FGYEH8aLF80_-Pnq9Em9osy5xFOfnzH4_U-Lxio-ALF6MOYdr0dZkYpTpaihp_BWyna6nA8yp_76lbncaY7zI-2Fb6FVZivZ_YImiebgtEcmDx8cDi8ayKxf3gM/w480-h640/earlyspringgreatleft.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">I also brought in this little round coffee table, which has been hiding in our downstairs storage room for months.

I know so many enjoy a simple January "reset," and some like to keep the cozy holiday vibes going by creating a Winter look.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">So, what exactly "is" a Winter vibe? For me, it boils down to layers and ambiance for a cozy feel. Did I achieve that? Not sure, lol, but this is what I came up with in our great room.

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Oh my goodness, can you believe that Christmas is one week from today?! I can't ... time is going by too quickly! Well, before the season ends, I wanted to share our holiday home tour!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Welcome to our foyer, where the star of the show is this fabulous sign from Ginger at Teal Barn Signs. After I hung it, I knew that I wanted to play off of its vintage feel ... so I added our carolers, snow, deer and music notes down below. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Then, I added lots of red, green and white ornaments to the tree, along with both "vintage-y" and plaid ribbon to tie it all together. On the wall, I hung picture frames that I lined with plaid wrapping paper and nostalgic Christmas carols. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As we leave the foyer and step on into the great room, I attempted a cozy, lodgey look! To make our little flocked trees seem a bit "bigger," we added mirrors behind them ... love the reflection of the Christmas lights!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Over on our mantel, I grabbed the tape again and mounted these paper bats to the mirror. I then added a couple of black trees, pumpkins, mercury candle holders and just a little pop of orange to finish it off.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This little black and white polk dot pumpkin adds a little more whimsy into the mix (yay for Target Dollar Spot). </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Suffice to say, I think we're officially ready for Halloween ... well, except for candy. We tend to wait until the last minute to get all of that ... if we didn't, it would be devoured by my fellas, lol! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hello, hello ... is this thing on?! My goodness, it's been awhile ... hope you're doing well! Yes, I’ve been neglectful of my blog lately, so I'm back to breathe life into it again!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">"Welcome" to our Fall home tour, where this year, I decided to incorporate both neutral tones and traditional seasonal colors. I'm mad for plaid, too! </span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Since we don't have a large front porch where I can scatter straw bales, I added a couple of them here in our foyer, instead. I then tossed in several pumpkins to tie in with the cute sign. One big colorful Fall arrangement in the middle finished off the (hopefully) whimsical look.</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In our family room, a neutral palette won again ... as did more plaid and a bit of mercury, too! I also brought in this larger rug from our basement to layer over the seagrass rug. Gotta have lots of layers this time of year, right?</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now, if you don't have a dough bowl in your life, you need one! They are the perfect accessory to add seasonal "goodies" to! Over on our mantel, I kept it fairly simple looking with just books, corn stalks and a few baby pumpkins.</span></div>
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In our kitchen, I brought in a bit of mustard, cranberry and green. I also added in a few pieces of copper (which is a "must" this time of year)! And for those of you who have been with me for a while, you might have noticed our microwave is gone from above our cooktop (it's now in a closet). Yep, we took the plunge and built a wood range hood. Even though it's far from perfect, we couldn't be more thrilled with the new look! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You know that it wouldn't be Autumn around here if we didn't have our decorated Fall tree tucked in this corner! Although, unfortunately, I couldn't find the family pictures that I always hang on it! Hope I find them soon! </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In our sunroom, I tried to make it cozy by adding ladders filled with throws. And since we don't have beautiful trees in our view outside of the back window, I added tall, colorful Fall stems to glass demijohns on our console table to make it look as though we do (ha)!</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The dining room is *dressed* in traditional Fall colors, but I also decided to mix in a bit of blue. I really like how it plays nicely with the shades of orange. Oh, and may we just stare for a moment at the beautiful pendant light that my sweet husband recently surprised me with for our 24th wedding anniversary! Love it!</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Lastly, in our sitting room, I kept the traditional seasonal colors going. As for the wall "art," I simply framed faux leaves to tie in with the rest of the room. Even though I love this look, I'm getting ready to add in a bit of Halloween ... can you believe tomorrow is October 1st?!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Greetings, friends!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">How in the world is Christmas only two weeks away? I can't believe how fast this season has flown by! </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Well, before the big day comes and goes, I wanted to share a bit of our home dressed up for the season.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This year, I added lots of traditional holiday colors to our foyer. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Since I didn't want to take our balloon print down for the holidays, I mixed in a bit of gold, dark pink and blue to the tree ... hopefully, it all ties in together.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> <span style="text-align: center;">along with cute gingerbread trees and Santa, of course!</span></span><br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The whimsy spread into our breakfast room, too. When my sweet hubby surprised me with two of these cute flocked trees, my first thought was to leave them untouched. Well, that didn't last long because, somehow, gingerbread men, cookie cutter ornaments and "cookies" made their way onto them!</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Festive red spread its way into our bedroom, too! A fun change from the coastal blue that I normally add this time of year.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As much as I love the festive colors, I toned it down a bit in our great room and gave it a "Winter Wonderland" feel.</span></div>
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I kept the simple vibe going into our sitting room. This is our "reason for the season" space, where I added a beautiful angel, the "star of Bethlehem," nativity, framed music sheets and a tree filled with musical note/instrument ornaments, angels and stars.</span></div>
<br />
