SPRING DESIGN OF A GREENHOUSE TERRARIUM

Hello Loves....yes, it's still raining...

Yes, it is rather cold too....a tad above freezing in fact!

I am not complaining however

because these February rains are going to 

bring us beautiful fields of bluebonnets this spring!

The bluebonnets depend on early rains to grow

across the fields and interstates of Texas....

We are planning trips to Waco and Austin

in April and this just makes me super excited!

So, since it's been a cold and rain soaked week

at home, I am pulling together new Spring

looks for a fresh new vibe!

I am just amazed at the current new decorating trend

of Urban Farmhouse!

Thank you Chip and Joanna Gaines....who doesn't love this

darling duo!!!

This decor and style is growing rapidly

in the You Tube world and some are changing

their entire home into this rustic farmhouse look!

I love this style too, but in small doses....

I learned a long time ago, to be careful of

decorating trends...no need to change up your entire

home to be current....it will soon change to something else.

Besides, I love our family heirlooms way too much....

I love etched glass, crystals and glam!

I am ready for Spring!

I like to look around the house

and challenge myself to pull together an

idea that is swirling about for a new vignette.

I am incorporating a few new pieces

in with decor items I have had a long, long time.

THIS is my new greenhouse terrarium which is going to be the star
of the foyer table...I am over the moon in love with this!

My sister and I made terrariums years ago
which turned out beautifully.
This one is going to be for decorating purposes only.
I cannot wait to decorate this for fall and Christmas too!
Imagine the possibilities!

I am building the design around a rustic spring garden theme

I am going to use Traditional,
 but with elements of French and English country.

Vintage Candlelight

Wrought Iron anything

Wood…natural, chipped or worn wood is a

 hallmark of farmhouse style.

I want to use organic and natural materials.

I am also using heirloom linens…more elegant and classic.....

to incorporate into a rustic farmhouse feel.....
It's a work in progress, so perhaps
I will add more natural elements such as moss
and small ferns...
I think the idea is to continue to create
and enjoy your finished design.
