Now that Christmas has been put away, decorating around here becomes less...well....cluttered and complicated! Good thing too, because I was about glittered to death!!
But..I do like some icy looking decor and I made this little candlescape for my table in no time, with things I had around the house.
Do you know about Bedoodles Snowflakes? They are so fun. I always look for them after the holidays and was able to pick up some for just 99 cents.
Just like real snowflakes, they come in all shapes and sizes. They have a wire attached to them so that you can use them to decorate packages, fasten them on to your tree or other decor. I kind of like using them on candles.
In this case though, I just wrapped them around the ends of piece of scrap pallet that I had left over from a previous project.
I added a couple of votive candle holders that had snowflakes on them and then I used this awesome paperweight that looks like a 3D icy snowflake....check it out. I have two of them. One I found in a thrift store here and the other in an antique shop in Montana.
When I put them all together, I had this fun, rustic candlescape for my kitchen.
Wintery, without being too Christmassy. Sparkly, without glitter....now you can't beat that! This candlescape will stick around as long as our wintry weather does. Keep your eye out for those BeDoodles.....they're kinda fun!

What a pretty setting! Thank you for the tip about BeDoodles. I'll be watching for them! -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures
ReplyDeleteVery 'cool' and crafty! I am glittered to death too, and am glad to be done with that :P
ReplyDeleteOh Danni that's really pretty and I love the snowflakes. I haven't seen bedoodled things here (typical you guys get all the awesome stuff :P)
ReplyDeleteOh so pretty!! I love sparkle!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty, Danni! :)
ReplyDeleteHmm, never heard of Bedoodles before, but looks like they can be used in almost any creative setting. Love what you came up with, as usual! So nice that you can keep it up for the entire wintery season!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great transitional decorations! I love that it's celebrating winter and snow...which we have had very little of. I hadn't heart of bedoodles before. Really beautiful job.
ReplyDeleteI love the simplicity of it. It's a refreshing change after Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThat table is so pretty and peaceful looking, just like looking at a fresh snowfall in the woods! I don't know if we have Bedoodles in Canada but I'll keep my eye out for them.
ReplyDeleteI love Amy's phrase for this, transitional decorations. Never thought of that, but it is so much better to transition into something wintery after the holidays rather than what I usually do--clean but empty slate. Yours is simply beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat is so very pretty! I am glad we dodged the bullet and didn't get a ton of real ice, but that is so lovely--and not cold, lol.
ReplyDeleteHi :) I found you on the great blog train hop!
ReplyDeleteI love your crafts!!
can't wait to see more!
Pretty! Love the icy look! Glad you get to put the glitter away for awhile. I know how you feel about glitter :) Happy New Year!

Gorgeous dear Danni!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I have been trying to get my husband to bring me a pallet but he hasn't yet. Love the silver with the wood. Thanks for sharing on Super Sweet Saturday.
