Winter Decor with a Hint of Valentine

Because I like to leave our Christmas decorations up well into January, when I start putting out winter décor, it seems it's not long before the Valentine's décor also needs to make an appearance.

Here's a look at how I combined the two decors on the sideboard.

 
I was able to create this unique bouquet with these great snowflake branches found at HomeSense last year. I placed them in a white pitcher and added a couple red heart picks.
 
On the mirror above, an icy wreath was adorned with some metallic hearts.
 
This Love sign becomes the centerpiece on the sideboard.

Of course, Mr. & Mrs. Snowman were willing to pose for a romantic picture.

 
They must be in love...look at the happy glow on their cheeks!


These items were placed on a white table runner with some snowflakes and frosty branches along the back of the sideboard.


 In the corner to the right of the sideboard, some candlelight and a faux bouquet with glittered roses add to the ambiance.
 
 On the other side, a trio of cylinder vases are filled with Epsom salt "snow" and Valentine hearts.
 
 
 Red hearts and icy snow actually look great together so combining winter with Valentine's décor is only natural.
 Thanks for visiting!

I did not want to say goodbye to my winter snowmen yet and now you have given me the perfect way to hang on to their winter happiness for a bit longer. Thank you so much!! I will be hanging the hearts amongst the snowflakes and snowmen tomorrow!!!
