Happy New Year!
Ahhhhh, Christmas is now officially packed away, BUT, that always leaves me stumped as to "what's next?" New vignettes … colors … and arrangements invade my brain at full speed … can you relate?
In our little sitting room, instead of going "coastal" for the warmer months (that I WISH would hurry up and get here), I decided to keep the greens and browns and stay a tad "wintery" for now.
After the tree came down, I moved one of our garden seats in here to hold a few decorating magazines that always seem to distract me!
Before coastal birds fly over to our accent chest, a simple vignette sits there for now:
I took down the Christmas branches and added shed antlers and wintery churches to our bookcase:
Apparently, SOMEbody emptied the "cocktail" decanter … oops!
I couldn't resist adding one little piece of coral here … maybe it will chase this frigid weather away!
If "that" doesn't work, maybe these little teases of Valentine's decor going on elsewhere in our home WILL!
Just might have to splash a little bit of "l.o.v.e." in here soon, too!
Stay warm, friends, and thanks for stopping by!
As always it is gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteoh it looks Beautiful Becca!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the greens and browns with the white. It is just way too cold.
ReplyDeleteNice and cozy! Makes me want to snuggle in and grab one of the magazines....
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so beautiful my friend! Love how soft and cozy everything feels and that's definitely needed this time of the year!

ReplyDeleteso elegant love it.. I can barely wait for your valentines décor post!
ReplyDeleteLooks gorgeous Becca! Love the orchid and your chandelier! So fancy!
ReplyDeleteIt looks so pretty, Becca! Very cozy. I'm sitting here looking at a sort of plain kitchen right now and wondering if it's too early for Valentine's decorations -- so glad you cleared that up for me :)))) Happy New Year to you and your sweet family!

Your sitting room is looking just perfect. I love the splashed of green and the blue dresser to break things up.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see more of that red!! ;-)
XO,

Hi Becca, IF my hubby would let me take the darn Xmas stuff down I could relate........... I am hoping he will relent this weekend cause I am leaving for 5 days in Fl. on Monday so it won't come down til then:( OY!! LOOOOOVE your room as it looks now.
ReplyDeleteIt's so funny - we're in the mid 30's (celcius) down-under :-) so wouldn't mind a bit of cold! I love the decor on your dresser - so pretty. Don't know about Valentine's Day but have seen hot cross buns in our supermarkets :-/ now that's wishing the year away!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! Your home is beautiful
ReplyDeleteWhat are the enlarged envelop pieces you have hanging on the wall? Those look interesting!
ReplyDeleteDebi, those are prints that I found at Marshall's a couple of years ago.
ReplyDeleteThanks so very much, Nancie!
ReplyDeleteI am loving the color scheme in there and that mirror over the that table, LOVE!!!!

Oh Becca! That is so cozy and warm! I love the pops of green and that is going to transition so well into spring! I know you guys are freezing! Yes, it is crazy cold here, but we are prepared for it! I KNOW you are crazy cold!!
ReplyDeleteI love it! So fresh and gorgeous! I always look forward to the days when you share another beautiful room in your lovely home. Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful room to sit in on a chilly winter day. I love the brown and green accents and I need to find a silver urn, it looks so pretty with the twigs.
ReplyDeleteAlways stunning!…love the pops of green and blue..
ReplyDeleteA beautiful room to settle in and read some decor mags!
ReplyDeleteSusan
Can you tell me where you purchased your curtains in this room?
ReplyDeleteBecca, your home does winter just beautifully. It's serene and soft and still the light pours in from the window. You can make white look cozy... a very hard thing to do! Just stunning, my friend!
ReplyDeleteWhere are your bookshelves from? I love them!
ReplyDeleteWhere are your bookshelves from? I love them!
ReplyDeleteHow did I miss this? It is just beautiful, but should I be even a bit surprised at that -- NO! All of the white with the little pops of Valentine's decor is so very pretty.
ReplyDeleteHi! just found you as I followed the Manchester Tan - I may use it for kitchen/dining room. I am decorating a sorority house and love the curtains in your pic that have the citron and brown/grey ..... is it citron? Where are they from? The girls would love these in their house.....green and red are their colors, so I'm trying to get a good combo that doesn't look like perpetual Christmas ! :) Thanks!
