Flowers, Angels and Rabbits

While the mourning doves are cooing outside ( I can hear them on the roof through the chimney), I thought I'd take a few photos of the mantel in my living room.  I've been influenced by the many beautiful Swedish blogs lately, and decided to bring the outdoors in.

This delightful lady head vase holds flowers.


The bunny hopped in from the garden.  I found the clip on candle from this store.
Angel pot with moss growing out of it.
A beautiful banner Madai from Wren Cottage made.  Visit her Etsy store here.



Bell jar over a nest of bird eggs.
Tea lights bring a gentle glow to the pot.
Close up of the old mirror.  I love the patina, and chippy cracks of the paint.
Thanks for swinging by my living room!   Hope you have a wonderful Monday.
Take care,
Martha

I loved "walking through your living room", and I wish I was there! Why does that lovely lady vase look so familiar? Your blog makes me happy! Love, Your Favorite (and only) Sister

Love the Shabby Chic look of the mantle - you've styled it so nicely. And the head vase is lovely! I collect them but tend to go for all-white ones - love the glam look of yours (is she a Glamour Girl vase?).

Your mantle is looking so beautiful! I love your glittered garland, the candles and your vintage lady planter. So pretty!
