About This Space

A dear friend and I decorated this table for our annual fall fundraiser knowing we wanted our look to be natural...earthy...but dramatic!
We began gathering items from our yard/farm such as branches, tree stumps, rocks, and succulents. Pulled out a variety of vases, silver bowls, candles, and some jewels (for a little bling, plus a mix match of chairs. I love to decorate with different woods, textures, and fabrics...guess thats why I enjoy the eclectic side of things. The zebra plates just popped against the back drop of the greens and browns. The middle centerpiece was so tall that it was hard to photograph so check out the shot with it just sitting on my floor. A friend had changed out a chandelier and was going to throw it away so I used the crystals and incorporated them in the main centerpiece and two vases using fishing line. This was a fun project. Sometimes we have treasures in our home and don't need to purchase new accessories. Begin with one idea such as a theme or a certain piece of decor and just...play! Happy Decorating
