Welcome to Show and Tell Friday! I can't believe we are already getting towards the end of January! Soon I will be decorating my mantel for Valentine's Day, which probably won't be too much different than I did last year.
It seems in January I always use silver, crystal and white to decorate and that's what I did again this year...with lots of candles!
I'm loving this time of year now that I have a fireplace! It doesn't get that cold in California so I have been pretty much using the fireplace for heat in the evening. I think I've only turned my heater on a couple times.
It's so cozy to sit here with the fire and the candles and a glass of wine...except I decided to do a dry January this year so no wine for me... no alcohol at all this month. I haven't been perfect though...I had some wine a couple times but since I was drinking wine almost every evening it's a huge improvement. I've decided I'm going to continue it like this from now on...even past January! I find I get more done when I don't pour myself a glass of wine when I get home from work! I've replaced the wine with sparkling flavored water in a wine glass!

I love your blog. It's right up my alley. I love. In SE texas close to the gulf so usually. We hardly ever for a fire place. So when it does get cold enough we take advantage of it. I don't get out much due to a spinal issue, I look forward to your post. Thank you!!!
Your mantel is beautiful! You won't need to change anything for Valentine's Day. Thanks for hosting and enjoy your weekend!
