~Some of my New Pieces~

I get quite a lot of comments wanting me to show where I have displayed some of the items that I purchase and how I have used them to decorate my home. Below are a few of my newest pieces.


This was a beautiful ornate Frame that I purchased at a thrift store for $17.00. It was painted gold, so we painted it a pretty off-white. I purchased the reproduction Paris map and it is a gorgeous focal point in our Family Room.

This is the "BEFORE" picture.

This is the "AFTER" picture. I loved the shape of this old mirror that someone had turned in to a chalkboard, but I wanted to turn it in to a Photoboard. This was the first time I have tried this and I am pretty happy with how it turned out!

First I added batting and a pretty linen fabric. Then I added the ribbon and tacks which gives it that beautiful tufted look and then I added some of my favorite pictures.

I love how it looks over my desk in our Kitchen...

These are some of my new Silver finds.






I love this French Demilune Table that I came across at an antique store last month. I found the perfect niche to place it.


These are a pretty pair of Candelabras. They look beautiful placed in front of our fireplace.

This is one of the pair of Lamps that I just came across last weekend and some beautiful trays. They look so pretty placed on my Daughter's nightstands.


I purchased this charming wire Tiered Cart last weekend and just thought it was so sweet.

I went to my local craft store and purchased nine of these clay pots for .50 cents a piece. I painted them a creamy white, placed a small piece of foam inside and some pretty flowers and then covered them with spanish moss. It shows that for a small amount of money you can create something really whimsical. It adds the perfect indoor garden touch that I was looking for...

This is of our new Entertainment Center which I LOVE. The French Table on the right is also one of my newer finds.

I know so many of you fell in love with this gorgeous French Mirror like I did. I am so happy that I finally came across one and at such an amazing price.

I will be doing another post next week with some of the other pretty items that I purchased!
