Create your Winter Luxe Aesthetic in a cabinet!
A winter thrift store luxe aesthetic combines cozy, vintage, and elevated styles. Styles that mix second-hand treasures with a touch of sophistication. Here’s how to achieve it.
This project is a Pinterest inspiration project. Pinterest is my happy, positive, and uplifting place on the internet.
Around 95% of the items in my winter cabinet display came from a thrift store! There’s a crystal bowl give as a gift and the silver dome butter dish came from a home store in Arizona. Everything else was collected from thrift stores and funky antique shops.

Key Elements of my Winter Luxe Aesthetic
Gather your winter luxe aesthetic items.
Look for your layer of chunky knit, cashmere or wool scarves pieces with textue.
Collect long pearls, gold chains, silver strains.
Neutral and Earthy Tones
• Stick to a palette of cream, soft beige, and vintage whites.
• Add the pops of gold or metallic details for a luxe feel.
• Inclued touches of glass for sparkle.
• Use silver and gold candlesticks and or a chunky holder.
Add Lighting
• Gather vintage holiday lighting or soft lighting.
• Grab your favorite candles, I used battery candle with a DIY chunkiness added.
• Add thrifted statement pieces like a brooch or a chunky gold necklace to add sparkle.
• Grab little balloon lights. These are my new favorite.
• Look for vintage glassware to hold candles, lighting, or to weigh down chunky knits in place.
Jewels
• Collect long pearls, gold chains, silver strains to drape over everything.
• Use shorter necklaces to wrap around candlestick bases and around bowls.
• Textures in Homey Layers (if creating a matching interior vibe)
If your display is larger, think about adding thrifted wool blankets, velvet pillows, or vintage photos. My next luse aesthetic display might be the whole room!
But, I’m not into dusting, so maybe I’ll keep everything contained in the cabinet.
Thank you for reading along with my winter luxe aesthetic in the cabinet! Can you tell I love thrift store shopping?
This cabinet is one of my favorite areas to decorate. Mike and I found it in a rustic shop in Scottsdale about 20 years ago.
