A little something pretty
with delicate swags of dainty flowers
&
sweet bows
I love architectural salvage pieces.
In whole or just bits and pieces~ I love them.
It is something I always keep an eye out for while I am antiquing.
old glass doorknobs with intricate key plates
a simple beautiful door
shabby glass paned windows
and chunky corbels that once graced an old home.
Architectural pieces bring so much charm and character to a room.
But it isn’t always so easy to find the salvage pieces you are looking for and
sometimes you have to look for quite awhile for the perfect piece for the perfect spot
then throw in being a little impatient… and well,
I just decided to make one of my own.
Ohh… I love how it turned out!
So simple but so charming at the same time and am loving the color and finish on it too~
the soft taupe gray reminds me of the original finish on the armoire in my bathroom
As I was photographing this vignette on this chippy old table
a completely random idea popped into my head
and I ran with it…
Soooo
while the boys were watching the super bowl…
I was listening to a little music on Pandora and working on turning this piece into something different~
which I will share with you soon!

(Did I say how much I am loving these roses? Okay… Just making sure 🙂 )
Happy Monday everyone!

did you make the furniture appliques? I also make my own because I'm also impatient, but for me, I was looking to add a little color into appliques. But I do love the way these came out, you did a wonderful job!

I too love swags on just about anything. They can transform any piece into a thing of beauty. Your pale pink roses are to die for too. Roses and swags – the perfect combination!
