Oh good, you’re back! Remember this situation?
elle decor
June 2010.
here
.
I chose the wallpaper because my chairs were mostly hard surface wood-based. Not enough impact and I wanted to surround myself in this wallpaper.
Every time I pass it by it just makes me smile — it’s so cheery and the birds? well, they’re just so happy. Afraid of wallpaper? Not a problem. Frame it. As done here in an office designed by Vanessa De
Vergas
.
The new head chairs were found for an absolute steal at the
outlet. I could not pass them by. And that’s all I’ll say about that. Well, I’ll also say they’re so versatile these chairs can go just about anywhere in my home which in my book is a justifiable purchase.
Mirror. There was a time I was obsessed with Trumeau
mirrors. Now not so much but I still think they are
so
beautiful. It looked like this at one point. Kinda drab, no?
So guess what? Yep, you nailed it, I painted that mirror. And here it is in its all its glorious frenchy self. Mirror was purchased right here LOCAL at
.
That arrangement is like my own elf on the shelf I move him around practically every night from room to room. Why? because I adore that arrangement. It may be time for a new bowl/vessel but for now I’m making it work.
I had this piece designed by the amazing LOCAL floral designers at
about eight years ago and it is still in fabulous shape.
Ok, I know you are all on pins and needles waiting to hear the focus of my next post. Next time we’ll discuss … BUYING LOCAL!!! And I’m not talking produce here people.
