Transitioning from Holiday Decor to Winter Decor

on

Our champagne is popped and I’m ready for everything 2020 has in store! As we get ready to welcome another year, I’m showing you how to transition your holiday decor to elegant winter decor. Freshen up your home with decor that will last you through all of the winter months.

3. Replace garland and wreaths with small, subtle trimmings. Choose locations such as the mantle or centerpiece for a table.
