On the Squares

Hey Guy's!!


I hope ya'll had an amazing week & an awesome 3 day weekend. I've been creating a lot, moving things around this week, finding some amazing finds & loving all of you so much!! Ya'll inspire me so much & I love reading all of your comment's, DM's & emails!! Keep 'em coming. Let's get into this weeks deets from my IG post's.



Tuesday:


As great as it was to see Red, White & Blue in my home, I definitely enjoy the whites, neutrals & wood tones with some greens from my plants in my home. I shared my side table on our dining room. I gave ya'll a full side

view of it, keeping it simple with different textures to give you all the feels. I had know plan of how I would be creating this week, usually after any holiday creating I am ready to get back to my natural vibe. I started by placing the topiary off to the end of the table to give layers to my gather sign, giving it the peek-a-boo effect. I like to have pieces hidden at times. I placed it inside of a basket from Laurel Grove. Next to the basket, I have my Mason jar & 2 glass bottles with a strand of light's in each one. My wired basket sits in the middle with another plant on a riser & a wood spindle also from Laurel Grove. Oh this is 1 of 2 wired baskets that I purchased from Facebook Marketplace. I am so happy the other person didn't go pick them up like she has said she was. They have the tobacco basket vibe but in a metal. The last piece that I have in this creation, is another riser from Hobby Lobby with a glass door knob on top & a glass cloche. All simple pieces pulled together to make 1 creation or 3.


TIP: Have pieces that flow together to create 1 big creation or can be easily divided up. Each section is the center or main focal point if you have pieces that flow together.




Wednesday:

Dining table creation square share, simple but oh so elegant & cozy is the vibe. I used a cheese board as my base, adding my Fern plant, that's her name she's sweetly planted in a crock pot. I believe I've had her for almost 2 months, I rescued her off of Facebook Marketplace, she's definitely is coming along. My 3 candlestick holders from Dollar Tree with white tapers. So simple to create & all item's that I already had.


TIP: Shop your home!! As much as I love finding new item's, shopping my home is just as fun.



Thursday:

I shared with ya'll another view of my dining room side table. I have my FB Marketplace metal tobacco tray, haha if ya'll saw my stories that word was hard for me to say every time, I kept saying Tabasco!! This is the smaller of the 2. Inside I have my sweet plant from Trader Joe's on top of a riser from Hobby Lobby, a wood spindle from Laurel Grove & my wood sign from Charlie James & Co. This vignette is perfect alone or as whole with the 2 other vignettes on my table. Creating this way gives me more space to create with, as long as all the pieces flow together you'll achieve a perfect creation.


TIP: Have pieces that flow together to create one space or several vignettes.




Friday:

I am so happy to end my week with this square, ever since I received this print from my dear friend Gayla at her shop Scattered Beams, I knew that I needed to create something beautiful but not taking away from the print. Head on over to the square to read the meaning behind this square. How I created around this print was with my dad in mind, I took the picture in the evening to have the evening ambiance, as the sun was setting as it would out at my dad's ranch. I have my brass candlesticks with tapers, a faux plant (SOLD OUT) from Pottery Barn, wood bead garland that I created just for this creation on top of a box from Little Gray House Candle Co, not available for purchase on it's own but with the Gift Box Sets . I have the print framed in one of my FB Marketplace frames, I couldn't wait any longer to get it framed... so I have it doubled taped to the back of a larger piece of paper that is taped to the frame. I then added a larger frame around it to pull it all together. Seriously what a great way to end the week.



Well that wraps up this post, I hope ya'll enjoyed it as much as I did. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart!! Ya'll are the best & totally rock!!


MUAAAAHH!!
