Spring Mantle

..
I've been taking a break from the nursery, enjoying lots of family time, and am working on "Spring-a-fying" our home. {thank you spring fever!}   Like most, we've been enjoying warm temperatures in the 50's + 60's...  that was, until last evening. This morning we woke up to beautiful blanket of snow and a snow day!

The most change has been taking place in our living room and the entryway,
switching out winter decor.

Using old bottles, I've been having fun playing around with 'groupings'.
I want to add a few more bottles, of higher height, maybe wine bottles.
The chalkboard is another one of these, cheap and easy!
The thrifted-window is a cream, and the coffee filter wreath has some in it too. 
I'm hesitant in pairing the white bottles and cream together?
It bothers me... we'll see!


[the medicine bottles I picked up at Frontier's Antiques, and gave a quick facelift by spray painting.
To see what they looked like before, you can see here!]



Have a wonderful Monday, whether snow or shine!

  1. I LOVE it. And I think the creams and whites look great together. Love that old window, I've been on the look out for one.
    So pretty!

  2. Love the new spring decor! It is bright and cheerful. I too think the creams and whites are nice together. It's good to live on the wild side a bit. :)
