Dainty Swags & bows

A little something pretty

with delicate swags of dainty flowers

 &

 sweet bows

I love architectural salvage pieces.

In whole or just bits and pieces~ I love them. 

It is something I always keep an eye out for while I am antiquing.

 old glass doorknobs with intricate key plates 

a simple beautiful door

 shabby glass paned windows 

and chunky corbels that once graced an old home.

Architectural pieces bring so much charm and character to a room.

But it isn't always so easy to find the salvage pieces you are looking for and

 sometimes you have to look for quite awhile for the perfect piece for the perfect spot

then throw in being a little impatient... and well, 

 I just decided to make one of my own.

Ohh... I love how it turned out!

So simple but so charming at the same time and am loving the color and finish on it too~

the soft taupe gray reminds me of the original finish on the armoire in my bathroom

As I was photographing this vignette on this chippy old table

 a completely random idea popped into my head

and I ran with it...

Soooo

 while the boys were watching the super bowl...

I was listening to a little music on Pandora and working on turning this piece into something different~
which I will share with you soon!

(Did I say how much I am loving these roses? Okay... Just making sure :) )

Happy Monday everyone!
