SNOWY SCENE

-

1. Cabin fever. Assemble a homey centerpiec­e with a variety of elements, including a tray of candles and sentimenta­l wood slice ornaments, a frosted tree tucked in a wood box shelf and a lighted log cabin, all situated atop a patchwork runner and tied together with a dusting of faux snow.

2. All-pine glow. Craft custom candlehold­ers by gluing several rows of pinecone scales around the base of a clear glass votive holder or tumbler. To add interest to the display, elevate one on a small birch log. “Texture, scent and light combine to appeal to multiple senses,” René says.

3. Window framed. To create depth in a wall arrangemen­t, layer a canvas print with a holiday scene atop a commonly found item, such as this salvaged window.
