We have an inkling that our readers create fantastic holiday arrangements that outshine anything balsam-and-burlapped from the grocery store. Show us what you’ve put together while your garden takes its winter nap- whether it be coniferous, floriferous, or bulbous.

What’s in it for you? A $100 gift certificate to use online at NatureByDesign.com, courtesy of our sponsor: Nature by Design.

Send your photographs to [email protected] with the subject line ‘Winter Decor.’ The deadline is 12/31. Our editors will look over the whole lot of entries and pick a winner based on originality of the composition and overall looks. The winner will be announced in early January.

Enter today!
