Simple Winter Display Ideas



Here is a photo stream of one of my display areas this Christmas. I love decorating with nature so I clipped a few pine branches and placed them in little glass vases. I have some handmade cards on display that I have saved through the years.
(I will never get rid of something someone took the time to make for me! Sentimental, for sure! )

a beautiful handmade card by my paper expert friend, Teresa.


Katie Brown birds and candle sitting on Christmas tree stumps and some painted pinecones.

A print of a painting my grandfather did. My grandmother sends a new print every year of one of his nature paintings. I can remember he would paint a design for all of the grandkids on an envelope filled with money for us. Hope you enjoyed my simple display!

Linking up with these parties and this party.

  6. I love anything with a 'nature' theme. Your display is simple and yet very thought out! I love the colors.

    Those wire birds are just the coolest!

    AND...I was so surprised to see you kept that card for so long!! Although, I'm the same way...I treasure handmade items from friends!
