~Winter Nesting~

Been having a cleaning, organizing, baking, creating sort of weekend. In other words . . . winter nesting.

And speaking of nesting, isn't my 'happy new year' bird sweet? My wonderful mother gave him to me a couple years ago. He is happy to oversee the comings and goings in the living room. The candle acts as a little fireplace to keep him warm if he gets chilly. ;)

 

 It's been fun to simplify with white . . .

and at the same time, cozy things up by adding a little 'more'.

As in more comfort- like pillows.

And nothing makes nesting even more pleasurable then the smell of scones baking in the oven. 

Okay, yes- eating them is better then just smelling. ;)

Hoping tomorrow will allow enough time to finish up the undone bits of today . . . a half finished table cloth, an ironing pile that reaches to the sky and a few more tweaks around the house to better snug us in. But I'm leaving all that for right now . . . a night out with a girlfriend is about to begin!

Hoping your weekend is full of cozy bits of home. :)

Cheers!
