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...
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...

ReplyDeleteHi Linda!
ReplyDeleteLove your entry and the vintage floral wallpaper is so cozy and welcoming. Can't believe you found that rooster at a garage sale. Always amazes me what people let go. Lucky for you :) Hope your nice weather continues. We have had 3 gorgeous days in a row. Dare I say that? :D Take care! ~M
Gorgeous..... visitors must spend ages looking at everything before they walk past! I know I would!

Linda I love it, you have such a pretty entry! Martina
ReplyDeleteI am in a swoon over your mantle! The old books, burlup, the gorgeous glass jar with eggs... devine!!!! X
ReplyDeleteGreat 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.
ReplyDeleteWonderful ideas you have implemented Linda...Very antique and creative things you have collected.
