Shabby Tea Room Challenge

Hello Everyone! I was honored to be asked to be a guest designer for The Shabby Tea Room this week. I love their challenges, and shabby chic vintage is my favorite style, so I was thrilled to be invited to participate!

  This week's challenge was to create a winter wonderland project based on the following inspiration photo. I'm not going to lie. I sat on this photo for a while until I finally got my idea for a project!

I decided to pull the white and cream of the snow in the tree and incorporate some gray and light blues from the sky and shadows in the snow. I always get so sad after Christmas is over and we take down the tree, winter villages and decor. So, I decided to create a home decor piece that would be suitable to put up as soon as I take down the Christmas decorations. 

I heat embossed a tree stamp as the focal point. Adding a silver doily, vintage

buttons and some silver tinsel gives this winter wonderland home decor a shabby feel

I had to add some snowflake embellies, and added pearls to the tree. 

P.S. My hubby is living in D.C. for  a new job, and I am sending this project in a care package for him!

I hope he enjoys looking at it in his room and thinking of how much I miss him.

That's it for me!  I hope you play along at  The Shabby Tea Room and link your card by Sunday, January 30th!
