Winter Snow and Ice Tree in the Den, 2020

Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!
I am so happy you decided to stop by!!

 Today, I will be starting to share my inside Winter Decor in the Den.......
 
But first, I want to Thank, Katie, over at Let's Add Sprinkles, for choosing my post, Country Folk Gifts , Part 2,  as one of her features from last week's Keep in Touch Link Party!!

Thanks so much, Katie!!

I also want to Thank Barb, over at The French Ethereal, for featuring my post, Hudson Model Railroad Club Train Display, from last week's Share Your Style Linky Party!! 
 Thanks again, Barb!!!

Please stop by and link up to this great parties!!

In my last post, I shared how I changed over the front of our townhouse from Christmas to Winter.....
 Click HERE  if you missed it......

After I  did that post, I took these pictures of the front of our house in the evening.....
 I have been using my new camera and so far, so good!!!

Over on my Christmas Blog, I did my last post for this past Holiday Season and shared my Epiphany Tablescape and some After Christmas Buys.....
Click HERE if you missed that post...

Last year, I skipped decorating the Den with all my Winter decorations that I have for this room because of my knee....

So this year, I was really itching to decorate for Winter...

Today, I will be sharing my Winter Snow and Ice Tree in the Den.....
This Tree is a 4 1/2 table top Tree that I bought many years ago in Target for $10 on Clearance after Christmas......
This is how it was decorated for Christmas......
I stripped it down to the lights.....
Added some gold tipped greenery, a clear beaded branch and pheasant feathers to the top of the Tree.....
And  a bow that I made using white deco mesh ribbon......
I added a set of lights that look like icicles......
And a clear crystal like garland.....
I started to hang my ornaments on the Tree next......

A Lenox snow man.....
Pine cone like ornaments and owls and birds.......
Lots of different snowflakes......
And a snow man or two.......
Lots of clear acrylic snow flakes and icicles make the Tree look as if there is ice on it......
I am going to let the pictures do the talking.....

I used putz house like ornaments that I bought a few years back after Christmas in Sears as a village underneath the Tree.....
I love how this Tree looks in the evening.......
I do enjoy sitting in this room in the evenings when Joe is watching his hockey games in the Living Room....

In my next post, I will be sharing Winter Vignettes in the Den.....
  So I hope you will stop by to visit again soon!!

This year, instead of choosing One Little Word for the Year.....
I decided to choose POSITIVITY for my Theme for the year and PRODUCTIVITY for My Word for the Month....

You can read about it HERE if you like.......

I have been very PRODUCTIVE so far in January as I have changed over Christmas to Winter and Valentine decor so far outside in the front of our house, in the entire Den, the Powder Room and I am almost done in the Kitchen......

I also gave those rooms that I changed over a good cleaning before re-decorating them....

I have stripped down the Living Tree to decorate it for Valentine's Day

I will soon be working in the Living Room, packing away Christmas and re-decorating the room for Valentine's Day.....

I have also cleaned out a few Kitchen cupboards and donated 2 boxes to Salvation Army....

I am now back to doing 15-20 minutes at least 4 times a week on my stationary bike......

I may choose another Word for February or I can keep Productivity for yet one more month....

That is why I like the idea of choosing a Word for each Month instead of a Word for the Year....

We are supposed to be getting possibly 3-5 inches of snow this weekend so it will definitely look like Winter outside as much as it does inside our house......

Thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!

  1. I am going back to read about your word. Missed that post. LOVING your Winter tree. Oh if we had enough winter here in Florida I would so want to do a Winter tree. Awe....I needed some inspiration to get back on my glider. I have never done an stationary bike before but did enjoy the glider till I got lazy before Christmas....So glad I could catch with you today Debbie. Happy 2020 to you. Hugs and blessings, Cindy

  2. Hi, I was wondering if you would go back to your normal self and continue decorating to your hearts content. I see now that you are retired, you are decorating more again. Treat for the eye for sure! Hope you continue to decorate as this is a happy page and I do come here when I am feeling a bit down. It lifts the spirit and we all need this in this fast paced ever changing unpredictable world we now live in. Happy 2020!

    1. Marti,
      Thanks so much for stopping by and for your sweet words especially about my Blog being a happy page!! Last year was a hard year for me , dealing with immobility and then my knee surgery and then recovery but now I am feeling well and enjoying my retirement and all the time I have to finally do the things that I love to do and one of them is decorating to my heart's content as you so eloquently put it!! LOL!! I will continue to decorate because it does make me happy as I do get bored very quickly...And I am now physically able to do so!! I have a lot to share here as I have been very busy so I hope you will continue to stop by!!! Have a great weekend!! we are supposed to get about 5-6 inches of snow tomorrow!!
      Hugs,
      Deb
