Hi Everyone!
I'm still here. It's been one of those weeks. Uggg! Life sometimes just seems to get in the way...Anyway, I wasn't able to get to any of the projects I wanted to start this week...:-( But at least today I was able to get around to redecorating my mantel. Just wanted to share some pictures with you. Tell me what you think...
I'm calling it my
"Paris Flea Market Mantel".
Here's a closer look.
"Paris Flea Market Mantel".
Here's a closer look.
All the items, with the exception of two, I got at Le Thrift Store...Hee, hee, hee. Not exactly a Paris Flea Market, but the next best thing...I think :-)
The vintage french postcard and pearl garland were a giveaway I won from my friend Linda a while back...I think it goes perfectly here. And the really old books under the bust were given to me by my dad...Well just until he wants them back :-) It took me a while to convince him that they would look much better displayed in my petite cottage than stored away in a box in his house :-)
Oh no, wait, three things...The little birds where a gift from my cousin Irma.
Hope everyone had a wonderful week.
Enjoy your weekend!

Hello my sweet friend,

Ana it's gorgeous! Truly lovely That swan is amazing too. Hugs!
The entire mantel is beautiful but I love the iron finials most of all. Such an artful display of cherished accents. You always do such a lovely job of display!
Your Paris mantel is wonderful Ana. I love that statue. I think Paris decor is so romantic and elegant. I am really into birds lately too. Have a nice week.

Hi Ana,
I like it...its very charming and creative a fun theme. Are your going to put candles in the candle sticks? I love how they look like columns.
Its so fun to re-purpose and decorate.
I hope this week goes better for you, I know how it goes sometimes our life just gets so busy and then we wonder where did the time go to.
Big hugs and have the sweetest of days, Elizabeth
Great thrifting and I love how you put it all together for a very Paris flea look!
