Vignette a Day, Wood and Faux Flowers


 You may recognize this piece from the Would You Paint These Post? You will be happy to know I took everyone's advice and will NOT paint this piece, I think that is good since this piece and I (and another man) have a history. You may read about that HERE if you like. 



 Atop my desk because of the window placements I am unable to get very good shots, so excuse the over edited photos.



 This is perhaps the best view with natural light. What is your feeling about using faux flowers? Love em, hate em or eh! what ever? I have mixed feelings myself. I think there are many that have a natural look to them now, certainly a big improvement over the years when I worked at a Ben Franklin store and we sold red, white and yellow plastic pretties! Yikes!






 Opposite the desk with the above vignette is this little corner, Not much function but a sweet little spot none the less.




blessings and thanks for visiting

How pretty! And I love how you used the old drawers (sewing machine drawers?) in your vignette

I LOVE the wooden tool box and sooooo glad you let it be au naturel!

What is the little piece on the right side of several of the pictures, it looks like it has two small drawers?

Oh, I forgot, these particular faux flowers are very nice. I don't like most "fake" flowers, but these are quite lovely.

I love the wooden tool box, how stunning is that! I am not crazy about faux flowers but you have created an elegant vignette with yours.

Your vignette is so pretty. I use silk flowers a lot in my home. Fresh is always better, but unless you want to purchase flowers all the time, its difficult to keep fresh flowers all the time. I gotta have flowers of any kind.

Great vignettes Shannon. I love them all.

I don't mind the 'over edited photos'...er uh... Faux flowers, I mean.
I don't think any of us are mindful of your photos...because your vignettes are so GOOOOOOD!

I could just sit there and sip coffee with you all day... Your rooms are so lovely.
