When I think of a “winter wonderland” I think of blankets of pure white snow, and snow and ice sparkling in the sunlight. This post is full of plenty of snow, ice, sparkles, and light, but there are other things that go along with a winter wonderland too!
Snow and Ice
Brrrr. But how pretty! Happily, we can duplicate the look indoors without the freezing temperatures. 😉
Fake Snow
Use it in centerpieces, tablescapes, or winter scenes.
Snowflakes
Spread some snowflakes around! Buy snowflakes (like those below) or make your own.

Glitter
On anything you buy (like ribbon or snowflakes) or to use in crafts.

Glitter ribbon
The more sparkles the better! 😉

Light
Candles
There are many types of candles, including floating candles. If you can’t (or don’t want to ) use real candles, you might look into fake ones (especially tea lights).
Lights
Strings of lights, fake candles, or other lighting. See icicle lights here.

What’s more woodlandy than moss? Well, trees, technically. Oh, well.
