Winters in The House…Home Decor Ideas
I don’t know about you, but I always find that I need to fill the seasonal decor transition between Christmas and Spring with something….anything. It would actually depress me to take the Christmas stuff down and have nothing around to look at. As if these cold temperatures aren’t depressing enough. So I thought I would share Winters in the house…home decor ideas.
This pine cone wreath that I made ~15 years ago hangs in the kitchen window.
The camellia is perfect to withstand the cold temperatures and it’s bloom cycle is fall through the spring. Pretty pink blooms for months.
Some other blooms that I am totally enjoying inside the house are these paper whites. The fragrance that the flower gives off is a bit strong, but is so worth it on a dark and dreary winter day. I actually forced these in a glass vase for the first time. The bulbs were planted mid December. I am hoping to get a few more weeks out of them and then I will transplant the bulbs outdoors.
A little ribbon switch on the green wreaths at the front door. The plaid ribbon will take me through Valentines when I take the wreaths down and trade them for something that screams love. I used this ribbon in the house and on the tree during Christmas.
You may have already seen the mantel when I showed you my faux wood firescreen. If not, here’s the tutorial on how to make one.
Yup, all signs in the house that winter is most definitely here……and without the chilly temperatures and the need to bundle up. That’s the winter I like.
How about you, any signs of winter in your home decor?
If not, here’s some ideas for decorating your winter home.
So loving all of your winter decor….From your beautiful wreaths to that crazy beautiful wood fire screen!!
Happy Monday Laura!!!
Loving your winter decor and yes it says winter in my house with lots of throws lying around, thick knitted pillows and a fire blazing a lot these days.
I love your winter home and that cow with the scarf is the bomb! I do wish we had something that bloomed in the winter here. I'll settle for forcing bulbs and whatever cut flowers I can get from the florist.
Looks so pretty, my friend! I need to get my winter decorating in gear around here. Still feeling sad that the pretty Christmas decor is down. I really do love my Christmas house!

Perfect winter touches!
Your home looks wonderful with your wintery accents. How lucky you are to have an outdoor shrub blooming! The paperwhites are always a joy to see but I do find their scent overwhelming. I should plant something new to enjoy indoors. Your dining area near the fireplace looks wonderful. I've never seen a FP screen like that before- pretty cool!
Had to laugh at you "dressing up your cow" РI know exactly what you mean, loved paper dolls too! Your winter d̩cor is lovely. Especially like seeing the faux greens in the Epson salts РI use that as faux snow all the time! I so wish I had that "Let it Snow" sign on your mantel!
This is my favorite way to decorate — scrounging and repurposing. All so very pretty and inspiring me to do some winter decorating of my own now that Christmas is FINALLY put away!
Great ideas, especially the pinecones and the greenery in the vase with Epsom salts. Very wintry!! Thanks for your tips. I LOVE your dining room. The fireplace is beautiful! 🙂

Gorgeous. I love the wreath and twigs, plus that fire screen is unreal fun.
love all your looks of winter, especially love the pinecone wreath
Those are all great ideas! I always forget about pinecones this time of year. I love how they look for Winter.
I love all the wintery touches you have throughout your home and am jealous you don't have the temps to back it up. I'm of the I love snow until Christmas and then it has to go!!
LOVE your winter decor Laura…your mantel above the stove looks so pretty!!
I love all of your subtle winter touches around your home! I would love to have more indoor bulbs/plants, that I can transplant in the spring. Thank you so much for sharing them! Great meeting you on this blog hop 🙂
Very pretty! Your winter home looks lovely! I really like all the natural accents in your home.
Your winter décor looks so pretty. I'm embarrassed to admit that I took down Christmas and still haven't redecorated. On a positive note, it will be much easier to dust my furniture this weekend.
