A New Summer Coffee table vignette

Good Morning! As you read this we are in the Outer Banks, NC with our family. So far little Colleen is having a ball!! Actually I can't keep calling her little Colleen as she is growing like a weed!!!! Before we left a did a new vignette on the coffee table for Summer. I wanted to share it with you today. I brought this water bearer guy from the sofa table. I love the soft colors for summer.

This saki bottle

has the same similar colors.

3 shells at this corner of the basket/tray. I like to corral my vignette on a tray or in a basket.

This is the other one of the lanterns in the set.

A simple, serene vignette for summer.

I brought out the jar pillows and added some new pillows.

I found these blue leopard print pillows months ago but saved them for summer. I LOVE them!

My blue koi pillow will always be here in the summer.

I also have had this gold, coral embroidered pillow for years. It is great on this chair.

Thanks for your visit!!! We will be enjoying the sun, surf, pool and lots of good meals. And making wonderful memories. That's what vacation is all about.

XO, Pinky

Winter Foyer 2017

After we put the Hummel Nativity away I pondered whether I wanted to do something very wintery here or not. I decided not:) I brought back the palm tree lamp that I love but placed it at the other end of the credenza. I decided to feature this water bearer, inherited from my in-laws and a favorite piece of mine.

I also wanted to bring in a touch of leopard, actually I guess these candle sticks are more tortoise. I raised one to create different heights and added 2 beautiful smelling candles to greet our guests.

A blue and white jar and my winter swans from Longwood Gardens complete the vignette.

I placed some faux ivy around the candle sticks and nestled the other swan in the ivy.

The lamp and credenza give of a pretty glow at night. Thanks for stopping by. I hope yor weather is better than ours. We are having a "noreaster" today so I hope we don't blow away:)
