Winter outdoor decor

Hello.

I've been very busy working on various projects around my own home for the past two weeks.  Getting ready for the holidays and doing a massive overhaul of all things at Casa Bassi.  I have noticed that with all the catalogs and magazines to which I subscribe, many are recently including displays for the outdoor room.

I have no sense of urgency to sell off outdoor furniture and be done with it until spring rolls around.  In fact, I am noticing many periodicals and websites embracing the outdoor lifestyle and creating vignettes to showcase the outdoor room in a winter theme.  Not everyone lives in a environment  that lends itself to the use of the outdoor space in the winter but you can still decorate the space to reflect the season.  Many of us have at least a few pieces of outdoor furniture in a location where they can be seen from the indoors.  I love continuing my holiday decorating onto my patio.


I found a lovely collection of pillows and accessories, each containing a bird theme.

Twelve days of Christmas, the partridge and pear tree from  Pottery Barn  This pillow makes an elegant statement.

Or if you wanted to go with something red, the Cardinal and pine cones is also avalible from Pottery Barn .

This little light could be hung over a dining table or a outdoor seating area producing a soft glow.  Just enough light to showcase your outdoor seating group  Yet another fabulous find from Pottery Barn.

Perhaps, adding some string lights to the trees in your backyard space would create a festive addition to your holiday outdoor space.

















Or decorating several trees and adding presents to the scape would be a fun way to highlight a porch or outdoor space.


















                                                                                                              

If you choose to decorate the trees in your outdoor space, what could be more appropriate than getting ornaments made from bird seed?   Pine Tree Farms  has an excellent collection of pre-made ornaments that you won't have to worry about storing for the next year.


Each ornament is made of bird seed.  Not only are you going to be decorating your outdoor space but you will be feeding the birds in your area.  They have many decorative styles to choose from as well as bird houses and other styles of feeders that could easily be incorporated into the decorating of some trees.
