I saw this image in the latest issue of Midwest Living the other day …
… and I thought it was such a cute idea for winter. They suggest hanging vintage skis, poles or snowshoes horizontally on simple hardware store hooks. It would be fun to hunt for these things at antique stores and yard sales to build a collection.
I like how they’ve mixed in some vintage ice-skates too … they are in abundance on Etsy … or why not just use your own?
Come spring you can swap these out for vintage canoe paddles, tennis rackets or garden tools. So fun for a mudroom or entry way.
I also love the white birch logs and pine cones to fill baskets around the house. I have been craving green plants and flowers inside since there are none to see outside!
If your family does hit the slopes, here’s another cute idea I spotted on Pinterest. Swap out some of your framed art for vintage ski-lodge posters and lean a pair of skis against the wall along side.
And how sweet is this … do you have a set of perhaps handmade hats and/or gloves that you can’t bear to part with? Why not frame them and hang them near an entry way during the winter. I love this idea!
Hope everyone is staying warm!
