HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
Yes, I am still here my friends. It took me awhile to get the right footing again on blogging with all the holiday and post-holiday hoopla going around in our household, but I am hoping that I can start posting regularly again and share my home adventures with ya'll!
Anyway, if you follow me on INSTAGRAM, you know how hectic my life has been. I was however, able to put away my Christmas decorations after New Years eve, with the help of my nice and nephew who were visiting from California. And because I still was not so "over" Christmas really, I kept a lot of the RED around...
 |
| Reds and browns all around |
I obviously kept my red throw and pillows, and I got a lot of potted ponsettias from our church, that I decided to keep this color scheme for a while. And with Valentines on the horizon, I think red is the perfect color for now, don't you think?
 |
| Added my Dwell studio bird pillow in preparation for the Spring Transition |
 |
| Driftwood, my malachite box collection and some gold berries I recently scored, round up my simple coffee table vignette |
 |
| Books dominate my Piano Display |
 |
| Also moved these embroidered art work from the Master Bedroom to here. |
I moved my giant Fiddle lead figs from the Breakfast area to the Living room and they both are just a joy to see! Look how much they have grown?!
 |
| The console is back in it's usual spot. |

 |
| I love my simple mantel all because of these two Does I recently scored with the help of Cassie at Primive and Proper |
The Dining room is a clean slate as well. I think this is the most toned down this room has been for a while!

Have a Great week Friends!

ReplyDeleteYour home looks beautiful, Vel! Love all the reds. Have a great weekend. xxx Maria
ReplyDeleteYour home ALWAYS looks beautiful Vel. Love the pops of red that you added in and I love your fiddle leaf figs. I don't get enough sunlight to keep one alive so I enjoy seeing others who have had success growing them.
ReplyDeleteAs always pretty girl your home looks gorgeous and back to 'normal' life you have decorated it beautifully. I love the brass centerpiece and candles at your dinner table and of course, your ghost chairs are awesome! The red is always so bright and cheerful for any season and this makes you all ready for Valentine's.
ReplyDeleteI know, my life has been hectic since last November's birth of little Maxima I haven't stopped with the holidays and the traveling, oh boy!
Thanks for your sweet visit pretty girl.
Hope your new year is off to a good start.

You were right to keep touches of red, the perfect pop of colour for the dreary winter days that sometimes happen.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and your fiddle figs are looking amazing!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this tour very much, I love how tall and beautiful your fiddle leaf figs look! I also love your gorgeous rattan pagoda birdhouse in your dining room, it's definitely calling my name!
ReplyDeleteI am a lover of red so I think it is absolutely gorgeous! If you ask me, red chases the winter blues away. Thanks for sharing with SYC. Happy to be a new follower.
