I woke at 7 am this morning and looked outside to find it snowing.
That's not uncommon for this time of the year, but I prefer it to
snow at Christmas. I'm not ready for the white stuff yet.
Well it did get me into the Festive Spirit.
So I went about filling my black urn with BC Pine, Cedar Branches, and White Birch Branches .
I also dried my hydrangea flowers 
and sprayed them with gold paint.Then I filled my lantern
with willow balls that are painted red. Added a plaid ribbon to set it off.I had greenery left over so I filled the wall planter that was between
the garage doors.How stunning both appear.
here is why.
I knew the front door needed some dressing
as well.
So I went to my sewing studio
and whipped up this cute stocking with piping as well.I filled it with bags and
then I added a cute bear, a book , a candy cane and a bell.I hung it on my wreath
that I had made of pine cones and some red berries.Since I'm in a productive mode I started on this little project.
Any ideas what it might be?Here is a
small
clue.In a couple of weeks I will have my house decorated for the upcoming Festive Season,CHRISTMAS!!

ReplyDeleteHi Linda,
ReplyDeleteWow, your urns look great with all of the fresh greens in them, love that you added the birch too!
The stocking you made looks great on the wreath very sweet, the piping is a nice added touch!
We got snow too!
Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteFirst off I am so jealous of your weather. I sweated my butt off in Florida today! I so want to get into the festive mood but it is hard when the AC is on! I love your urn and planter, It really gave me some ideas! I cant wait to see the rest of your Christmas decor!

Oh I love those urns! I'll be back for the tour!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I used old branches with a bit of spray paint to make them black and then I put them around pumpkins in my planters at Halloween.
ReplyDeleteWe should have snow soon...:)
Your decorations are beautiful! I love all the natural elements. I see what could be a snowman waiting to be put together--am I right?
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I think we are supposed to get some snow later this week!

The greenery with that black urn is just stunning, Linda! You were quite a busy girl today - and it all looks so festive! :) We had our first 3" of snow down here in MI last week. I'm not ready for it either..... :)
