Color Me {Winter White}

It's finally starting to look like winter around here. The past few days have been filled with gray skies and colder temperatures making me feel like Christmas is right around the corner. As I do every December, I've put together some holiday theme boards that will take us right up to the celebratory day. No matter if you prefer a traditional holiday, a coastal Christmas or a winter white one like today, I'll have all the holiday cheer you need right here. 

Being in Florida, the closest thing we get to a white Christmas is sandy white beaches and a decked out Palm tree, but that can't stop a girl from dreaming right? Even if you don't live in the snowy white North, you can still create the perfect white Christmas. Adorn the tree in soft shades of white with silver accents and keep the rest of your decor neutral. Apply this theory to your holiday table as well. An ivory tablecloth topped with white plates and silver decor is just what you need to make it perfect. All that is left is to light a fire and curl up with a mug of hot chocolate! 

Color Me {Cable Knit}

All of a sudden, the temperatures have dropped! Yesterday was bitterly cold (for Florida) and today isn't supposed to be much better. When the temperatures drop like this I can't help but want to cuddle up in cozy knits and sit by a warm fire. The chunky pattern is a fall favorite and I wish I incorporated it more into winter gatherings. It's so simple to take the sleeve of an old sweater and slide it over a vase you already own to create a new centerpiece or to use the body of your favorite cable knit that doesn't fit quite right and turn it into a pillow to accent guests chairs. In colors like winter white, gray, and soft blues, chunky knit accents are a perfect compliment to your cold weather gathering.

Have a happy Monday!
