January Fluff:

I usually put away Christmas on January 1.  I like a clean slate for the clean new year.

After a good scrubbing, I pulled out my happy little Snowmen:

I hung a sweet gingham mitten bunting on the mantle:

I found the sweater/knit cones in Target on clearance!!!
I never get that lucky!

The pine cones are from my front yard:


Even the coffee table got some snowman love:


I made the wreath with some old tatted lace that I had in my stash:


A few cheerful hooky circles got pinned on:


And a quick braid of my favorite colors attached the wreath to the door:


I hooked up a cute little bunting on the porch - 
but I should have made it bigger because you can't really tell
that it says 2013:


Especially on a windy day!

I'm really missing winter AGAIN this year.
It has been ridiculously warm in Northern Jersey...
actually made it to 60* today.

I guess I'll have to make do with my Snowmen Fluffs!

Your winter decorations are all so cute! It's been pretty warm here in Alabama too but boy are we getting rain! It's rained for days but the weatherman says it might turn into snow tomorrow! Oh, I hope it does! Snow is so rare for us.
