A New Vignette with new Finds!!!

Yesterday I took a ride to Ross. I was hoping to find something for the patio but what I found was SO much better! I found 3 blue and white pieces; 2 planters and a lidded jar!!! I also found a great tray. Then I found out that it was senior discount day so got 10% off the already great prices!!! SCORE! I knew I would use the large planter up in the guest room and have done that. I decided to do a new coffee table vignette. I gathered the items on the new tray. I love the size, shape and style of it. It is important to me to use a mix of textures in a vignette to make it interesting.

I placed one of my orchids in the smaller planter. I wanted to bring in the russet color to tie in with the sofa pillows and new paint color!

The candle holder is a mix of metal and bamboo.

I love this smaller jar, and the price was certainly right!! Adding some greens to the candle holder and between the jar adds interest too.

I placed the candle holder and the planter on black stands.

This tray was only $9.99 and I love the texture and design!

So here are my 3 finds of the day.

This large planter is holding a houseplant up in the guest room now. I love collecting blue and white pieces. My collection continues to grow:)

Thanks for stopping by. Hope you are all having a good week and are getting your outdoor spaces all ready for Summer. The unofficial start of summer is this weekend!!!

Have a safe and enjoyable weekend. We have a picnic at the clubhouse on Sat. FUN!

~A Winter White Tablesetting~

The other day when I redid the morning/breakfast room I decided I should set a new table for us too. I decided to do a "Winter White" table since we have 11 inches of snow outside! But in keeping with all the greens in the room added touches of green too. Hope you like it! I chose dishes that all had lots of texture and pattern. These are not a set, they all came from different places but I love them all together.

on the side of the terrarium.

I just realized that the pattern of the tablecloth has changed in the pictures! I have no idea how this happened!!!??? As you can see in the other pictures the tablecloth is a tiny striped pattern.
