After the sparkle, shine and celebration of December, and once I've settled into the reality of January, I find my eyes are drawn towards the calm and simplicity of winter whites. The cutout snowflake is one of my favorite January decorations. I love to drink my coffeemate swirled coffee in my cableknit mug from Starbucks a few years ago. I bought this candle this year at Bath and Body Works after Christmas and it has become my favorite scent, lighting up my kitchen. My soft chenille gloves keep my cold hands warm and match whatever outfit I pull together that day. The sparkly celebrate sign is a gift from my friend Fielding Chelf and reminds me to celebrate the every day. My sweet winter white DKNY sweater I scored at Costco in December is cozy and pretties up even the slushiest day.
I love the vintage-y printed mugs my mom and I have had in our booth this past year, so I'm giving away a "Shine" Candelabra one to one of you! All you need to do is comment, and then become a fan on Facebook of Funky Junk Antique Show and let me know! My tell your story typewrite mug is my reminder to keep writing, keep junking and keep taking time for a cup of quiet.
Happy winter!
Love
Hollie

ReplyDeleteIt is in my barn where we will have a tack sale February. Since you may not be looking for tack, I thought I should mention it to you in your winter mood. Also, would you put me in your drawing?
I like how you put it, "my eyes are drawn towards the calm and simplicity of winter whites" I think that's what I was feeling too after I tood down Christmas decorations... and well white also looks good with the pink and red of Valentine's right? ;)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to attend your Spring show. My hubby and I are both followers. I am especially fond of the snowflake and the typewriter mug. I just read a book by Donald Miller with my bookclub ladies- A million Miles in a Thousand Years. It has to do with writing your own story.
ReplyDeleteOh! "Shine" is my favorite word and my favorite thing to do. I would love to be the shiney recipient of your "Shine" Candelabra! Where can I get one of those mugs? It is perfection. Love you!
