monday’s mosaic mood: winter wonderland.
this monday’s mosaic mood is all about winter white. from cool gray whites, to warmer creamier tones, they all make me feel cozy and content. this top mosaic mood was inspired by the lovely reindeer image from CharmingLiisa. you know how i love white, and i loved every one of these beautiful images gathered mostly via flickr group pools, like a lovely one i recently discovered called Whites, Cream , DECOR!
this second mosaic’s mood was inspired by the pop of the white rabbit against the vintage looking wallpaper in the center image by lbv5000. i really like the contrast that creates.
i also always like white as the simple blank canvas for the basis of your decor, but then i really get inspired when it’s layered with other white furnishings, fabrics, and textiles, like a fuzzy flokati rug, or a stunning collection of white pottery, or even a simple rustic, yet elegant stool with a white crocheted cover (like the one you see in this next mosaic from wood & wool stool). i love all the different textures it creates, and yet also allows for you to brighten things up come springtime when you may like to add more color. viva winter whites!

I am really happy that you liked the reindeer portrait so much that it even inspired you for this beautiful mosaic! Now I’ll have to check out some of the displayed photos, which I haven’t seen before!
You just put me on sensory overload. All the pretty pretty things. I honestly don’t know where to begin my praises. My head feels a bit funny. I’d like it all please. Just gorgeous.
These have been so much fun. Big Huge Labs also has a thing where you can put a photo in and it will give you a color pallete. Fun stuff.
