So back to the post. I have always had a love affair with wicker and rattan so thought I would share how I use them in my decor. We'll start here at the kitchen bar. I always keep this bar decorated and right now it features candle sticks with rattan centers and a wicker pedestal bowl.
By the pillar looking into the breakfast room, are 2 large baskets with a tray on top.
The centerpiece on the table is corralled within another basket. The S and P are also rattan.
Behind the pillar is another basket. They are all great for storage of things needed for tables etc.
I had this collection of smaller items that I collected many years ago and decided to hang them over the windows in the breakfast room. Then to balance them out I hung the 2 larger baskets on each side. I love them up there.
I also surrounded the hutch that Joe made me with some baskets. Recently I put the large basket on top of the hutch too. There used to be a store near us called Wicker Picker, that I loved and frequented quite often! Back in the day, wicker and rattan items were not really expensive so something i could decorate with on my budget:)
Looking from the windows towards the kitchen are some more baskets on the walls.
And the planter is iron and wicker.
The large piece here is a fish catcher, I believe. I love it! I found it years ago!
Above the cabinets are more baskets along with some pottery, that I also collect.
A wicker shade on the lamp too.
In the living room I have a wicker plant stand and 2 different fish catcher baskets.
I stacked 2 plant stands and have another basket, on it's side next to them.
A fan and a picture of a basket at the top of the steps.
Love this piece that I found at Kirklands years ago.
In the sitting room of the master I have these wicker candle sticks.
And the love seat is rattan too!
A wicker end table, and the shade on the lamp in here too.
Over the TV in here I have a large fan and another handled basket on the wall. The TV swivels so we can see it from the bed or the love seat.
On Joe's dresser is an arrangement that I made in a wicker container.
And a rattan runner is on his dresser too.
And another large basket.
This is one of my favorite things. I found this in a shop in Peddlers Village MANY years ago. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it.
So that's it....for this main floor. I have more downstairs that I will share in another post soon. Thanks so much for your visit. Say a little prayer, or just send some good thoughts on Thurs. for Joe.
