Christmas was glitzy, warm and inviting. It is hard to take down the Christmas decorations and not to find the house looking bare.
Transitioning your home decor after Christmas (and yet not quite spring), can be tricky. To be honest, there are some "Christmas" items that we do want to keep up beyond Christmas.
It is after all still WINTER - and items like snowflakes, snowman, crystal, evergreens/pine trees, pine cones etc - that we tend to associate and incorporate in Christmas decor, don't have an "expired after Christmas" stamp.

Branches of evergreen/pine trees and pine cones can easily turn an otherwise
boring armoire, hutch or fire place mantel interesting and cozy.

Now using the same pine cones and evergreen/pine branches (live or fresh are even better for the fragrance), placed into the apothecary jars can make a great eye catching decor. By simply changing the contents in the jars offers numerous options.

Now, my favorite is the deer that sometimes at Christmas might be slightly sprinkled with glitter. I see no problem with using it beyond Christmas; after all, deers are still alive beyond the holidays!
And then, there is winter white that can, contrary to popular belief warm up a space in winter. What's not to love!

Last but not least, if a little humor is in order....a season ago, after Christmas, we created this table scape. It's very easy to do. Creativity is all it calls for...the snow man. Not just any snow man, but the one you built and he now has melted and all the accessories came tumbling down on your "table".
