CREATING A COUNTRY FRENCH CENTERPIECE

Good Morning Loves....

It's the first sunrise on the first day of May, 2020...

Let's go outside and appreciate the view!

I hope this post finds each of you feeling good 

with a smile on your face....

I needed to have a bit of a change in post themes

and decided to share some inspiration that I hope you enjoy....

We all have favorites styles of home decor

and for me, I would say I am very drawn to Country French designs.

I ordered this magazine from Amazon at a great price of $5.00..

It has a wealth of beautiful ideas which I plan on putting

to good use in the near future.....

When I  decorate, I always combine

new items with old family heirlooms....

The second piece of inspiration came from

the latest issue of Victoria,

the color of these beautiful flowers which pop so beautifully

against the soft and vivid blues....

I order many of my florals from Amazon at great prices

for most of my arrangements....I also tend to use alot of

faux peonies as they were Mother's favorite flower.

A few posts back, I shared that I wanted to use

my grandmother's silver footed glass cake stand in this

centerpiece and place it on a small mirror to reflect some light upward......

I then discovered these beautiful country french glass bottles

which I thought would be beautiful set upon the glass cake plate.....

The placemat was part of set which was a gift from Miss M......

 I am quite pleased with the outcome....

it's colorful, romantic and combines old and new!

I think the colors of pink and rose are just lovely in this bouquet.....

I had a few leftover stems, which I added to this arrangement

and it worked for me.....the pitcher is from an old Tracey Porter design....

So, without spending much money.....we have something beautiful

added to our home.....oh yes, the entire bunch of the florals was $10.00..

I just divide the stems with wire cutters and create the arrangement!

I do hope you found some inspiration to create something for your home...

I would love to have you share your ideas and talents with us....

I always find ideas and inspiration from many of you and 

that's a beautiful thing about blogging, don't you think?

Be well and stay safe darling friends.....sending warm hugs!
