Vintage Snowflake Decor

Here in Utah we have a full on winter season with lots of snow. 

I have always thought of January as the "Snow Themed" month for my house.

 I always decorate with snowmen. Probably because its such a 

gloomy time and snowmen bring cheer and smiles to me. 

They are just so stinkin cute!!!

The next little bit on the blog I am going to have Snow Themed decor that I am making to put up in my home during January!

Today I have a cute and simple decor that I found on Pinterest. I fell in love with them the minute I saw them. 

Here is what I am calling
 Vintage Snowflake Decor:

Over at A Place 2 Call Home she did this with a few frames all together. Some had lots of snowflakes and some just a couple. For mine I just kept them simple.


What I Used:
-2  5"x7" Ikea Frames {my new favorite frames!}
-An OLD OLD Book with yellowed pages
-Exacto Knife {optional}
-Paper Cutter if needed {I didn't need one with mine}
-Silver or white snowflakes


What I Did:
My hubby got a book when he was in elementary. It is so worn and falling apart he let me use it for the project and anything else I want to! Wahoo!! I know some of you may not agree with doing this, but it just gives this decor such an old vintage look. I love it.

First, I used and exacto knife to cut 2 pages out of the book for the frames.

Next, I opened up the frames and put a silver snowflake in the corners I wanted them in. I left the mats in that came with the frame. Then I set the book page in place and put the back on. 

That's it!! Super easy, quick and

 GORGEOUS!!!

Thanks again to A Place 2 Call Home for the an amazing idea!
