After our 15-25 cm of snow this weekend, it now looks just like Christmas here! So pretty but NOT so great for driving.

This past weekend, I got my country log home ready for the holidays (minus the real tree). Have you started your decorating yet?  Yesterday, I did my country home’s Christmas urn and the rest of my entrance’s decor. I rarely have a plan for this, I just go where I’m feeling it, and this is the result.

I found these adorable wooden snowflakes at Wicker Emporium last year and I was excited that I fit them into this year’s decor. I kept it pretty simple and rustic with some pine branches, cut from our own trees, my old standby birch branches (from my neighbour’s lot) and some bought cedar branches, as we don’t have cedar on our property.

I added in some red dogwood branches in the middle (from my backyard in the city) and of course, a huge pinecone and a sparkly bow to finish it off.

I also did up my vintage sled and two of the lanterns that I had spray painted black (from their original rusted silver) this summer.

Please ignore all my little wet footprints, everywhere.

Later this week I’ll be sharing my city home’s Christmas urn and I’ll be taking a look back at ALL THE ONES I’ve done in year’s past. Wish me luck finding all those old pics.

What does your Christmas urn look like?
