Is your home a winter or summer home?

Is your home a winter or summer home? What I mean is, does it really feel most comfortable in a certain season? I know mine does. When I have all my Christmas decorations out, my home really feels like it fits in well in the winter months. For instance, one of my favorite pieces of art on my wall is of a snowman my daughter painted (and won an award for!) as a kindergartner. I had it professionally framed, and yes, I do leave it up all year. (It goes well with my chocolate velvet chairs sitting below it) My cranberry red curtains and throw pillows come alive, too. Then, of course there are my yellow walls that seem to breathe in the other pretty colors of winter.
