Countertop accessories with a cool winter vibe

A cozy kind of cool

Finally, if what you really want from winter is to warm up, there are plenty of options for that. You can use a sweater for almost anything these days.

Keep from scalding your hands and cutesy up your mug with a these cute, wooly sweatered mugs (Etsy, $17) in custom color combos. Add to the snuggled-up vibe with a knit teapot (Urban Outfitters, $40), too!

There are other ways to keep your kitchen comfy and cozy. You could start by replacing your tea and dishtowels with pretty crocheted options. (Zazzle, $16) Dress up a cluster of your favorite wines in bottle sweaters (Urban Outfitters, $12) and set them on your countertop. Finally, use a minutia of craftiness to make sweaters for your candle jars (an old sweater from your closet, free) or tea light holders. Any old sweater will do.

Whether you choose to add some winter glitz, pull in your favorite woodland/arctic creatures or cover everything in wool, it doesn’t take much to keep your countertops festive. Pick a couple of your favorite ideas and get to shopping.
