My New Favorite Spot

I think this is my new favorite little spot in my house. It sat empty for a while after Christmas when the tree came down and then I decided to move this dresser ($5 yard sale find) from the kitchen into the living room. I added the toile curtains last week and showed y'all the plates around the fleur de lis the other day. You can see I switched out the black and cream toile plates for the green bunny ones. It will be fun changing the accessories to suit my mood or whatever season it is. Hope your week is going well and that you have a terrific Tuesday!

What a pretty collection of shapes and colors. Love that desk and how you placed the clock low rather than high. Nice job!

That looks so pretty....all dolled up and ready for spring. I guess I've missed some of your posts but I'm enjoying looking through and seeing what else you've been up to! Love the "framed" T and the bunny door decoration. JUST MY STYLE! Happy Spring!

I have to mention the wall. I love painted paneling. It makes a home feel more cottage-y!

You come across the greatest buys! Five dollars? I never see anything remotely that good. I love your cozy little spots. You have quite a knack for them.

I can see why you love it! The whole arrangement is lovely, even down to that sweet basket tucked underneath the desk! (i still cannot believe you snagged that for five dollars~ that is amazing!) I ADORE the clock on the desk, too. It is perfect where you put it. :)

I want to let you know that I am doing a giveaway right now on my blog, in case you want to check it out! :)

I hope you had a wonderful Easter and that you have a great weekend! :)
