My Winter White Shelves

January 10, 2013 By Meegan 18 Comments

I am really loving my winter white shelves.  They look so cozy and welcoming.  To decorate them, I “shopped” around my house.  Do you ever go “shopping” in your home, too?  It’s so fun!!  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

I wanted to have a Winter White look.  Not stark white, but creams and whites combined.  It was easy to start with my creamy white shelves…

Shopping around the house is easy, fun and cheap.  I started out with my book page wreath as a base for the whole look.  I loved adding the pine cone garland to add some texture.  I like making it uneven for variety.

I am in love with this clock from our TV Room, because it is white(ish) and perfect for this look.

The top shelf  is shared by my cute angel (a gift from a dear friend), a tray full of 3 candles and pine cones (a gift from our daughter-she knows her Momma well), my cute plump bird, and the tiny urn.  I painted both the bird and the urn after I purchased them.  I couldn’t resist!!

The bottom shelf holds the clock, 3 candles (From our son’s wedding), a tea cup made by my grandma, and a simple white pot (from my sister-in-law).  I also added some dried hydrangeas to add an ever so tiny bit of color.

This is my view if I turn around and look from my computer desk.  Pretty cool, huh?  White, Wintery, and I did it all by “shopping” right at home!!  No money spent and I had a great time putting it together!!  You can’t beat that, right??

If you like these winter white shelves, you might also like my winter book shelves in the living room, too!!

I am glad you stopped by today!  I love reading your comments and thoughts!  They really make me smile!!

    I love how clean and soft these look! I think white tricky because you don’t want it to look boring and you’ve done a great job! :)
