Gorgeous day out, which is nice

overcast and rainy days, so nice to
see the sunshine the last few days.

more cooking and reading lately too.

So on we go............
Decided on something simple for
the coffee table
with photocopy affect
For the mantle I wanted to use the
Magnolia print I got in January and
also wanted to add these 2 grateful
plaques that friends gave hubby for
his birthday. Thought they went
well with the picture.
At first the plaques just didn't show up
that well and because I was using a lot
of white, I decided to add some card-
stock behind them, and it did the trick.
I had to work with this a bit as it needed
something, and couldn't figure out quite
what it was, so I added white flowers, and
then the bird nest and eggs and replaced
a white pitcher with this pink vase with
greenery, cause I am using pink in the
room too, so finally I like the way it
looked. lol So what you are seeing
is the finished product after lots
of tweaking.

Next was the sofa table.
Love this lil nest picture I found online
somewhere last year, I think in the
botanical prints from Google images
maybe....and of course, bird nests
with eggs just scream Spring to me.

Here is a clear shot of the picture.
Hard to get a good shot do to the
lighting and glare.
Enjoying the new look, but think
I want to move the furniture
around yet.....and yes, very
soon............lol
Thanks for stopping by to visit,
Have a lovely rest of the week
and
keep your light shining brightly.
With light affect
Love, Hugs and
end of April Blessings,

Hi, Nellie.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is beautiful outside. Steve and his dad came to do my yard and cut back the bougainvillea. After his dad had cut the back, we sat and talked a long while. It really
was a nice day in the shade with the cool breeze!
Your decorating is beautiful! You have so many pretty things to display! I love the magnolia picture! I've got to get busy, for next week Mid-Florida comes to do their termite check! Have a great day! Love you, Susan
Hi Susan,
ReplyDeleteYes, it is lovely out when you are in the shade with the cool breeze. Nice they got your
yard all shaped up for you.
Thanks for coming by and for your sweet comments.
Good Luck on your termite inspection. Glad to see you were feeling much better again.
Maybe that cold or virus is gone for good now. Hope so.
Love, Nellie
