Hi sweet friends, it's Amy and welcome back. Today I'm starting my morning with a warm
french vanilla cappuccino and of course Nyla is right here keeping me company.
This is the fourth and final video in my winter decorating series
and today we're refreshing our living room which I'm super excited to style after Christmas.
I'm starting with the inspiration piece for the entire space that I found from Amazon.
It's a wooden frame snowy mountain scene with two deer. It honestly reflects exactly what we
see right outside our windows here in West Virginia and it sets the cozy winter tone
for the whole room. For the coffee table styling I'm keeping things really simple here,
grounding the arrangement with a tray and three individual pieces. Finishing things off and for
that lift in feel I love opening one of my favorite decorating books to a beautiful image
and displaying that right on the coffee table.
you are you are such kindness in my own story oh what can obscure the truth
my father in heaven's me I dance in the pouring you shower your love with the power I can't escape
you speak
before styling the fireplace and seating area I wanted to share a quick tip even without a
picture frame tv you can use youtube to play vintage art scenes so your tv feels like part
of your decor instead of a black screen I love switching them out for each season I've already
gone ahead and made this arrangement off camera but I did want to share a few little tips just
in case you're in the same predicament so this brown stem here came from Hobby Lobby
it's pretty sparse but then I added some of these faux branches and if I tuck them down
into the bottom they would be too short so you might see one here kind of just hovering but what
I did was I took a branch if you can see right here and I wrapped it around the brown stems
so that it kind of keeps it elevated and so those faux sticks are actually up high
now rather than being like dropped down into the vase because I actually needed a little bit more
height at the top so that's just a little quick tip if you'd like your branches to be a little bit
what are you doing what are you doing do you like the sled do you like this one
what was the outside
is it snowing
throughout this winter decorating series I have incorporated just a few seasonal elements
rather than leaning into a theme specific decor you won't see snowmen or pine cones everywhere
just little touches here and there that tell their own story for me winter decorating is about moodier
natural tones lots of browns taupes cream soft whites with a hint of black layered with texture
and pattern to me this creates that cozy relaxed feel a space where you just want to cozy up on
your sofa with warm blanket watch a movie read a book or take a nap everyone needs a helping
everyone needs someone to rely yes everyone needs a friend so let's come together
celebrate each other send united as one
we lift our hands up and pray lay all our love before him with all of our faith
he is the change within us there is a light let him lead the way lift our hands up and pray today
oh everyone needs somebody to lean on need someone who cares if we come together as one
help each other get stronger we are bound in the name of the lord so let's come together
celebrate each other send united is one we lift our hands up
so let's come together
yeah let's come together

is by sharing god's word today i'll be reading from acts chapter 20 verse 24 however i consider
my life worth nothing to me if only i may finish the race and complete the task that the lord jesus
has given me the task of testifying to the good news of god's grace well i thank you all so much
