Every October for the last 3 years, I have participated in a 31 Day Writing Challenge. This year I’m offering 31 days of tabletop decorating ideas. There will be ideas for the bath, kitchen, bedroom, porch, patio, living room, dining room, home office and the mantle. I will include Autumn and Christmas in a select number of posts, but most of the ideas will be for everyday. I hope you enjoy it. I know I’m going to have a blast setting them all up and playing with new and old accessories.
Day One
The painting is a favorite that we purchased on our Alaskan cruise. It is colorful just like the artist, Duaiv. Finding just the right accessories to work with it was quite the challenge. I am satisfied for now, but will continue to search for just the right thing.
I added these lamps.
Then I added this book box.
I wanted to add a touch of green.
This is where I stopped. At first.
I thought maybe a little white would brighten things up. But, it just didn’t work.
So I removed everything but the lamps and added just the pottery and spheres.
I used what I already had and have a new look. It will be fine until my next shopping trip!
