Winter Farmhouse Vignettes Decorating for the Winter

The drab days of winter can definitely put a damper on the mood. Sometimes a fresh redo of decorating the farmhouse can shake those feelings that there is no end to winter.  Enjoy these Winter Farmhouse Vignettes!

 

In the kitchen I wanted a simple farmhouse feel.  Not a lot of fuss or clutter.  I used an oil lantern for my table centerpiece.  

For the kitchen shelf, I used a blue and white color theme.  Blue and white make for an ideal color palette for winter.  Dutch pieces seemed a good choice here.  All of these items are second hand.  I collected them mainly from auctions.

Dining Room Farmhouse Vignettes

Moving on to the dining room, I have this antique cabinet in which I keep our cloth napkins, placemats and table cloths.   The amber bottle is dressed up with cotton.  I leaned more toward a brown color palette here.  Using bronze, amber and wood with a splash of teal in the wooden bowl and George Washington plate.

This white and black metal table doubles as a buffet in the dining room.  Blue and white show up again on the lamp.  Silver tray displaying a creamer and sugar bowl with lots of patina.  Setting atop a good book is a cast iron candle holder.

Bedroom Winter Farmhouse

In the bedroom, we have a family handmade quilt on the bed.  A straw hat and a basket of books keeps the simple farmhouse feel in this room.

On the wall hangs a vintage shelf.  Decorated center is a Song of Solomon picture.  At one end sits a copper pot atop a blue book, ceramic pitchers sit either side of the picture, and a colonial couple.  On the other end are blue candle sticks.  Oh, and I can’t forget the twinkle lights!

Hanging from the pegs:  a simple wooden heart, a straw garden hat, and a green metal basket with roses.

Sitting Room in Winter Farmhouse

This table vignette hosts a vintage blue and white jug table lamp, a book nook filled with great vintage books, an old red schoolhouse and a colonial couple.  Underneath is a vintage briefcase, oversized books, and a wooden duck.

Winter Livingroom in the Farmhouse

I debated on whether or not to show these pictures of the Livingroom because of the paneling walls, but it is what it is.  I am thankful for the walls and eventually they will showcase white shiplap.

The piano is decorated with green oil lanterns on either side.  A Frank Sinatra vinyl record sits in the middle.  Above is a long wood shelf.  In the middle I displayed a needlework picture.  I had picked up this ornate gold frame at a thrift store and decided to place it in front of the needlework, since it’s frame was less appealing.  Candlesticks sit either side of the picture and a wooden bunny to one side.

Here’s a closeup of one side of the shelf.  This side has a white vase of flowers.  Next, is a woody angel with a glass basket sitting on a vintage book.  And then we’re back to the center of the shelf. 

On the other end of the shelf I have a teal and white wooden birdhouse next to our wedding picture.  It’s February, which is why I have the wedding photo. On this shelf  I tried to keep height visually appealing.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this look at my Winter Farmhouse Vignettes!  Let me know in the comments if you enjoy decorating during the Winter.
