More "Snow"...winter paper garland and more decor....



In my last post I showed you the "forests" that started popping up at my house after the Christmas decor was packed away...


More of that post HERE.


Well, it's still "snowing" here :)


Do you remember the hutch my husband made me with windows we purchased on our honeymoon? (Read the story HERE...it was one of my first posts ever!!)
It's always a fun place to do a great big "focal" display :)


A collection of old mirrors and rusty finds.  Those big snowflakes are actually a table runner I bought a few years ago. It's made the "rounds" at my house...but never on my table ;)


These old jack stands make fun "tree-like" ornament holders...don't you think?  And "unexpected" addition to an otherwise "frilly" display...just the way I like it :)


The garland is just old book pages with snowflakes stamped out in different sizes.  But the "hooks" holding the twine is the BEST part...


I found 2 of these old chippy latches at and antique store...it was "love at first sight" :)


One on each side of my also chippy screen...and there you go.


And there's that fun sign my friend Joan (Signs of the Times) made for me...still love it!!


Hope everyone has a great week!!

Old Windows...


Old windows...gotta love them.  I have tons of them...in my garage. 
When I saw the theme for Saturday Nite Special over at Funky Junk Interiors I thought "Fun...I've got lots of great ideas for those".  Then I realized...ideas are all I have.  The windows pile up but I have yet to accomplish much :)


Then I remembered these "Honeys"...my husband and I got these old chippy windows 11 1/2 years ago on our Honeymoon.  I posted about these special windows and the hutch my sweet husband made around them in one of my very first blog posts...way back when.  You can see the original post HERE...Sentimental Junk.


And here is another one...we got this window on our first anniversary getaway. 


You might also remember that little house he made for me. I'm trying it out in a new "home" above the smaller cupboard.

I'm not really thrilled about the placement...but it's the only other spot besides the top of the hutch where it has ALWAYS been...and you know sometimes a girl just needs a little change. If you read that Sentimental Junk post you know that it is a VERY special piece...but it is also a very BIG piece :)

So anyway, those are my old windows...I'll be linking them up over at Funky Junk Interiors for Sat Nite Special...and then I'm going to go peek around to see if I can get some more inspiration for the ones I've been hoarding collecting in my garage. 
See you there :)
