I love decorating with warm, bright colors during winter to liven things up. You’ll notice that throughout the examples in this post! Another tip I want to share with you is choosing the right background paper for your displays. Whether you’re decorating your classroom bulletin board, hallway, or door, the right backdrop makes all the difference. I love this fadeless weathered wood paper. You’ve probably noticed that I use it with tons of my designs. But it’s perfect for winter! The natural wood look creates a cozy feel and the best part is that it goes with just about everything!
