Winter Mantel decorating! {rustic}
Hello, hello there!
Time for a Winter Mantel.
All I can say is it has been chilly willy here these past few days!
Thought I would do a winter mantel this year. I usually put everything back to normal after the Christmas decorating.

Every since we have moved to the Carolina's which was 6 years ago, we do get a tad bit of snow each year.
Last year, it was more than a tad.
Anyhow, thought I would do the snow flake scene around here.

You see the little chicken feeder in the middle? I scored that at the Sleepy poet while out with my blogging friends.
I had no clue what I was going to do with it...but I think I put it to good home decor use.
Had to keep out a pair of ice skates, just in case we get some freezing temps, I will have Mike skate to work.
I love the new yellow candle crock Mike bought for me.
You use gel to set the fire. You may have noticed it on my Christmas eve post.
Love it!
Lucy looks snug as a bug!
Have a wonderful evening everyone!

Love the winter mantel, Debs! Those big snowflakes are great. I leave winter decor out till March, then I go back to normal.
It looks warm and cozy at your house Debbie!
We have had cold temps here in Asheville NC too. We had snow flurries Monday night.
Your winter mantel looks great, Debbie. I love the snowflakes and the yellow crock.
Dogs find the most comfy spots in the house.
There is something so timeless and classy about snowflakes and I love how you used them to create your own winter wonderland!

Your room looks all cozy for the winter months, Debbie.
xxxooo
Love the mantel, Debbie! All ready for a cozy night in!! The snowflakes are fabulous!
I love your pretty winter mantel! The snowflakes are great, and the pinecones too. (I used both for mine.) Your living room looks warm & cozy.
Your mantle looks great and I bet you see some of those flakes outside soon. I always try to remember its good for the grounds sake, as I shiver my way about lol.
Really pretty and I love the snowflake theme. I have my cubbies done in snowmen and cardinals.
Beautiful!Thought I would put my mantle back to normal after Christmas...but...this makes me re-think that idea:) ~~Blessings~~Shine
oh that looks lovely, the snow flakes and the snow covered cones just make my heart squeeze, I have the reall thing here but I like yours much better, much warmer!! Have a great night!
I love decorating with snowflakes. Your mantel looks very nice; the entire room looks cozy and warm!

Cute mantel. Nice and cozy room. Super cold here, too and inside. Our heat has not been working right.
Looks so beautiful Debbie! I've been working on mine today in between taking down Christmas decor. My house looks like a tornado came through!:-)
Vanessa
Your fireplace mantle looks beautiful.
I actually have a few of those snowflakes that I didn't end up putting on my tree. I had my husband pack them back away with the other Christmas decorations. Now, why didn't I think to use them in that way?!
Really pretty Debbie! It is NOt chilly here!!
Oh I want to be CHILLY WILLY... We were 88 degrees today... I am not sure what Season I am in.. LOL!!
Your mantel is gorgeous and your whole room looks so warm and inviting. Beautiful. Hugs, Marty
Your mantle is lovely! You make me wish I had kept my ice skates out!
Love your winter mantel with all of the shimmering snowflakes....working on mine but it's just not there yet. I really love your coffee table, I'm sure its been in your posts before but I never noticed it. Where did you get it?
Marianne :)
We are actually having unseasonably warm weather here in Iowa. 40 degrees today. Unheard of ! Beautiful mantle. Love the snowflakes ( I just don't want to see any real ones!
Love those snowflakes! I used to hang snowflakes from the ceiling of my classroom. I always left them up from Dec-March until all hope of snow was gone. I wish we had snow to go along with this current cold weather!
Debbie- I love your snowflakes and what a pretty winter mantle. Love it. Do you know we still don't have any snow here and it is supposed to be 40º tomorrow? We usually have a 2 or 3' base by now. Crazy weather. I hope to start de-Christmasing tomorrow- xo Diana
Hi Debbie Dear! OH, I love your winter mantel! The snow flakes are snow much fun! :) (pun)! Love how your pretty room looks!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Everything looks so beautiful. Love the yellow candel urn! One of my favorite things! I really love the gas candles now, due to bad allergies, they are great.
Looks very nice, I like keeping winter decorations out...I think you did a lovely job with yours! I wish we would get some snow down here though...I miss it. I am having a giveaway just posted it..check it out if you'd like.
Rachel :)
Is Mike aware that you'll have him skating to work? he he he. Love the set and all the snowflakes look nice and Wintery =)
That's a cute idea to decorate your mantel for Winter. I would say that the snowflakes definitely give away what season it is!
This is such a beautiful room no matter how you decorate it! Love the winter mantle look! Mine is back to normal but still putting Christmas away. XO, Pinky
My friend you haven't lost it one little bit. I on the other hand am having a blog brain fog this week. I got nothing. Nothing but recovery from holiday overload. Should be back soon as I do feel that fog lifting. Great mantel.
I wonder if we will get much snow this year? Would like at least one!!! Love your snowflakes and chicken feeder...beautiful winter mantle!!!
I bought some beaded snowflakes this year for my Christmas tree. I like your idea of using them in January as winter decorations on the matel.
Happy 2012!
I adore your winter wonderland!
Your winter mantel looks great! Just got my mantel back to normal today. Perhaps I'll do something different, but so far the inspiration hasn't hit. ;-)
Stay warm! ~ Sarah
Your winter mantel looks great Debbie! LOVE that last shot!
It is lovely, Debbie. Your room looks very cozy.
I packed away the Christmas things and then everywhere looked very bare. Obviously I need to think about some winter decorations.
Love your winter mantel Debbie and that yellow crock!!!! Have a wonderful day, Gail
Debbie,
Looks great! I love snowflakes too. You'll have to check out my winter mantel. I'll be posting that soon!
Burr! It sure HAS been cold outside! Your mantle looks so cute and wintry. I left my wintry wreath up on the mantle but took down all the rest of the Christmas decor. That's about as far as I got. LOL! I really like your yellow crock. It's pretty and interesting sounding too. I haven't seen any refillable gel candles? You may have to feature this more for us! Stay warm!
The winter mantle came out great. Love the snow flakes. I still have to work on my mantle. It's just empty and staring at me right now.
Love it Debbie! I love the rustic look with the snowflakes and the pic filtering is just right!
The snowflakes do look beautiful on your fireplace! I wonder if you are playing in Picassa again with your photos! I love the first one! Hugs! ♥
I love your Winter mantle! It seems that we write January off. Once Christmas is down, then the Valentines take over. I love keeping January Winter chic. This year I am using red and turq. My blog banner reflects the transition.
Happy New Year, Deb!

Love your wintery mantle, so cozy and inviting! Blessings!!
Happy New Year Debbie!!! Your mantel looks so pretty and too funny about having your hubby skate to work LOL...what a sight that would be.
It's so warm here in So Cal, in the high 80's. I'm not enjoying it, I was really hoping some rain would head our way but no such luck:( Oh well...here's to a wonderful 2012!!!
I was just thinking last night that I'm ready for a change to my "regular" mantel. I just don't know what I want. Guess I have a date with Pinterest!
Debbie that is so perfect for January still a little sparkle after the holidays. We feel like summer here 89 yesterday. I hope it cools off soon as I like winters here.
i love it so cozy and the gel candle holder is awsome love the yellow color :)
ps i did valentines day on the porch its been great here like a s/c winter :)
Your home and decor looks so warm and cozy, Debbie. Hope your new year's enjoyable so far....Christine
Gorgeous....very warm and festive. I need to do a winter one....it's just starting to feel like winter here now that we have snow! Love the yellow pot!
Love all your pretty snowflakes! Now you just need some snow:-)
It's been cold in GA too! Love your winter mantel!
Debbie
I'm so glad to see this. I want to do a fabulous winter mantel and need inspiration. I even searched the words on pinterest, but they are all too Christmasy. This is terrific and just cute and wintery.
It's been colder than usual in south Georgia, too, but it's still sunny so it's OK.
What a gorgeous room! I love how cozy everything looks! Be sure to get a picture of your husband ice skating to work...we all need to see that! Ha!
I'd love for you to come link up with my Homemaking Link-Up Weekend! You can link any homemaking post---and as many as you want!
Have a great weekend!
Sarah
I tried to leave a comment on a more recent post, but blogger is acting up, so I couldn't.
I love coming by here and just looking at all the lovely things you do while I drink my morning coffee.
Your master bath, your gorgeous master bath, is your least favorite room in your house? I should be so lucky. :)
How do you stencil glass like that Debbie? Is it scrub-able?
Your mantel is lovely. Where did you find the giant snowflakes??
Happy New Year, Debbie!
I love your pretty mantel. I want some of those lovely BIG snowflakes...I love them.
I have a perfect spot to hang them from the ceiling....
(and don't think I didn't notice your propped one up IN FRONT of Mike's clock)...:)))
