Some Changes in the Foyer...



 This week I made a few simple changes in the foyer...on the mantel, the Easter goodies have been put away, but I still like eggs and natural elements...


  I kept the twisted piece of burlap for rustic texture, and the print on canvas was a $1 find at a garage sale this week!


 You know I love the old books, and the sweet dried corsage was one I wore at my son's wedding...




Found honeycombs and a jar of shells add to the natural feel...

 
 On the entryway cabinet, I added a fun weathervane I also found at a garage sale this week...



 as well as a footed silverplate compote with more eggs, and a graphic old advertising card...





Spring is finally arriving here...trees are beginning to blossom and it will be near 80 degrees tomorrow!  It's been a long time coming!  Makes me appreciate it even more!

I am joining Savvy Southern Style's Wow Us Wednesday Party

Until next time...
Linda

  29. Great vignettes, Linda! I love that print you found at the garage sale! Something I would have snatched up, too. I keep eggs out year long myself, and I never feel like it's an "Easter only" thing.
