{Eternally decorating}

Click on the image to enlarge.


I've been rearranging the little vignette in our entryway again this morning. I've added our Meredith Gaston painting. Oh, I love it so much. And one of my little papier mache birds that I picked up in the after Christmas sales down in Beechworth, Victoria. The colours are so fresh and inviting, enjoy!

    I love, love, LOVE the lamp and shade. The little bird is such a sweet accent. I bet you've walked by your little vignette a thousand times today just to look at it!

    Thanks for the lovely comments :)

    Angela, yes! This little cupboard sits opposite our living room so I now have a new favourite spot to sit and enjoy the view!

    Carolyn, the little cupboard is the perfect height to keep things away from busy little hands. I think Lola and Mia might be future decorators though, they are constantly moving my things around in the living room, making new little displays. My small eiffel towers are their favourites!

    Kate: the lamp base is a vintage one I bought on ebay and repainted and the shade came from Publisher Textiles (.com.au) in Sydney. I contacted them and placed the order through email.

    x Amanda

    gorgeous! i'm the same - eternally decorating. hall tables are the best for redecorating - they're seen so often it's nice to give them a new look every now and then. x

    Hi Ilana, the little swallow vases were actually a vintage find. They're one of my favourite finds!

    Best,
