Chic and beautiful…glistening like snow!! Creating a white winter wonderland is having a jewel box as your home!! Little twinkling lights are magically strung on your trees, banisters, mantles, mirrors, over archways, bookcases, and doors…inside or out!! Love and beauty joyously mark the season! Here’s how to create your Winter White Wonderland.
Today, Marlene shares how to create a Winter White Wonderland for Christmas
All of her suggestions are shoppable through text-widgets
White with little accents of color and, of course, gold and metallics create brilliant magic in every room!!
Silver glistens beautifully – be it pewter, platinum, sterling, silverplate or mercury. They are all so much lovelier in candlelight!! Crystal will add beautiful refracted light, too!
I believe you can never have enough candles!!
Little votives sprinkled around a table, up a staircase, twinkling smiles! Remember, however, not to let their scent overwhelm the menu!

Holiday scents can be evocative…in a candle, diffuser, or spray form. Especially, for those who need or choose faux trees and greens!! Diptyque has extraordinary scents and packaging….as well as Jo Malone London and Nest NY. Enjoy…as many of these pine and holiday scents are only available for a limited time!
Home-size candles are wonderful everywhere…and make lovely gifts!
Artists and designers alike love creating specialized and limited-edition candles for collectors and scent lovers!! Every room in your home benefits from gentle fragrance.

White dinnerware and their accessory pieces are perfect when accented with silver, gold, or any color under the sun!! Many are all–white, smooth, textured, some platinum or gold rimmed. They can be oh-so traditional yet chic and modern, as well.
Artfully and elegantly designed, they are certainly abundant from Wedgwood in bone china, Bernadaud and Michael Aram in French Limoges porcelain, Italian porcelain from Ginori or stoneware from Vietri, Juliska’s stoneware ceramics, Portugal or Villeroy & Boch rock porcelain from Germany!
Of course, it is great fun to mix and match with color, accent, dessert/ salads, etc...and usually best to stay with the same material ie. Porcelain with porcelain, bone china with bone china, etc.
Bernardaud’s Sol, Sauvage, or Soleil are great mixed with gold-rimmed Palmyre classics.
You could even select Pichard porcelain crafted here in America – in Illinois, since 1893! Today, it is offered with monograms for additional collectability in Platinum or Gold! Charming and so very personal!!
