I also like to put 'greenery' around those aqua lights ... I may do that yet.

With the Christmas nativity & Santa's put away, I add snowmen/ladies. Here is the table centerpc now ... a bedspread snowman I've had some yrs now & then I rec'd the glittery old fashioned signage snowman from a friend this year ... the light globe has a small timer candle under it also & the birdbath is a old candle I've had awhile, too ...you've probably seen it before:

Ok, that's it ~~ enjoy! Hope you'll all share some 'snowmen pics' ~~Jeanne S.

Jeanne, love your new 'Twinkle, twinkle little star' creation!!!
You and DH make such a great pair with all your creations.
This is so funny because today I was redoing my rooster
buffet and found an old insulator in it. Thanks for the idea,
now I can add a tea light and set it up on top! I was also
thinking about going out and bringing in my vine mailbox
that lights up.

Oh boy, just love all the lights and snowies you shared.
You captured the most warm, inviting space I've seen!
Your table cp is so SWEET!

BTW, thanks for another idea I had forgot about before
seeing your winter decor. DH said he would go out to my
parents place and we would get the old windows down from
the barn rafters so I could play with them. Gotta go before I
forget!LOL It does bother me thinking we might sell the place
and leave some neat things behind.

So beautiful and enjoyed seeing all of this so much, Jeanne.

Love, Punk

Thanks so much for letting me visit your warm and welcoming porch. I've always loved those insulators, but never knew what to do with them. Your idea with the battery-operated candles is excellent. I love the way your husband mounted them on the wood with the tags.

Thanks, gals ...

Oh, I love old windows! We do some gardening projects with them. So I hope you 'save' those from your folks' place, punk.

Fun2B ... those are just 'loose' blocks of wood ...nothing mounted ..>I just sit the candles on top & add the insulator...easy peasy, uh. Insulators come in such cool colors! ;-) Jeanne S.

Jeanne, your porch looks so warm and inviting even if it is cold outside. Love the idea of adding tea lights to the insulators they really do add ambience.

Thanks for telling me that, Jeanne. Stacking I can do! Now, I'll be on the hunt for some insulators.

Oh my gosh! I have a dozen of those insulators. They belonged to my mother. I've always thought there must be something cool I could do with them, but I never had - or ran across - an idea that I thought was any good. Now I know what I want to do with them.
I'm going to get some signs too! I'll have to go to the trophy store for mine. Wow! I'm really excited about this. I've already got an idea of where they're going to be placed in my backyard this summer. Thanks, Jeanne. I'

oHHH...be sure to share your idea this summer, OA ... I love those old insulators ... I have some sitting on my patio table now around 3 sizes of aqua Mason jars w/solar lights on the top & half marbles inside ... I can see them from my computer room window here ~~ I'll share a pic (daylight view...the fish will go out by my pond..new purchase)

Thanks, 2B & nana ... I'm always ready to 'shorten up' Winter after Christmas! ;-) Jeanne S.

...& a night view from my computer room window ~~ fish is now gone & 3 insulators sitting around the outside of the basket ...see how the snow reflects the solar light & the half marbles makes it sparkle! Fun decorating idea! ~~giggle ~~Jeanne

Jeanne, these pictures of your jars w/snow are so fun to see. We are having high winds so most of our snow is gone right now. Suppose to have sunshine the next few days.

Lovely night view, more lights, woohoo! I've never bought myself any colored solar lights but love seeing yours. You are such a great photographer.TFS

Punk

They're not colored solar lights ...just those you buy on a 'stake' @the big box stores ...remove the stake & glue to a canning jar screw 'ring' (so the light shines down into the jar illuminating the gems) ... the Mason jars are those old aqua ones. Sweet, uh! Thanks, punk ~~ later. Jeanne S.

Jeanne, You have done your usual wonderful work with your displays. Everything is beautiful. You and Punk are an inspiration! Marylee

Jeanne, am I crazy or do I see a big blue and red light behind your jars in the last picture? You know I'm blonde so EASY, haha! Those are the ones I was referring to. I do love your blue jars all lit up with your crafty way of adding the lights to the tops too. I wish they were KERR instead of BALL.

We bought DD a solar light the size of a bowling ball on a stand one year that changes colors. Don't think I ever seen it at night. She hasn't mentioned it so will have to ask about it.

Thanks again Marylee, you are a sweetheart!

Punk

Jeanne, your lighting ideas are ingenious and it all looks gorgeous! I don't have any old glass insulators but that is the best/coolest use I've ever seen for them. I LOVE the solar-lit mason jars... I'm not sure I understand how you mounted stuff on the "ring" because I've never had any ordinary staked solar lights. I've never had much luck with solar-powered things I've tried for the yard, so I'll just look at yours. :)

Jeanne. I commented on your winter porch on FB but will comment
Again ...just love the 'warmth' of your Winter Porch...so pretty to
see I'll bet both day and night.
I especially love your table vignette with the snowmen/ladies and the
trees. The bedspread snowman is so different and love its 'snowy
fabric' look. Did you make it?
I remember you showing how you display the solar lights...and remember
Stealing...uh...borrowing that idea from you ! Such a great idea..
Thanks again Jeanne for putting 'Warmth into Winter'.
jane

This is so pretty!
I always love that old door cabinet!

Ditto to Jane's comment about warming up winter!
You are certainly an inspiration!

TFS,
Candy
