Renovating and decorating our new/old house, a cozy cape cod built in 1940. It won't happen overnight, so join me for the journey.
The window is just leaning against the wall so I had a chair in front of it so it wouldn't get knocked over by a little someone. It was functional but just temporary.
Now I have a sunny spot for my paper whites. I thought I planted my bulbs too late this year but I think they will be blooming just in time for Christmas. I found the container at an estate sale last year.
The greens on the table are fresh but the Merry Christmas swag is not...I put it together last year. I'm thinking I need some tiny round ornaments or something to throw in with these acorns....what do you think?
I think my search is over for now...this little table just found a new home.

Perfect "find"! I love paper whites, especially at the start of the new year- something about that clean, white fresh start. A couple little ornaments with the acorns would be nice too, but it's sweet as is.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it just the best when you find something you never even realized you had??? I just wish it would happen more often! Lol!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I love how your Christmas tree is reflecting in your window...so pretty! ;o)

Very pretty color combination, very peaceful.
ReplyDeleteSO pretty! I love that chair, too. Thanks for sharing! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love it!! so pretty! I like it just the way it is, but if you think it needs more... by all means...
ReplyDeleteThe little table is a great addition, I think it looks great as is, but maybe a small (milk glass)bowl to hold your greens and acorns...(?)
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous vignette! The table is a treasure. I have those same darling acorn ornaments. I used them at Thanksgiving and now I am using them in my Christmas decor.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely stop and visit!

That is the most beautiful Christmas vignette I have seen this year! Seriously - it could be in Ballard!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you can join the party :)

That really is so pretty. Amazing it was already yours. Paperwhites = LOVE.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet little table! I think the acorns by themselves is pretty and simple.
ReplyDeletelove the green & white color scheme... and love that little table!
ReplyDeletethat looks so sweet Londen. I did get myself a glittered banner after all...now I just have to hang it up! Your sign in the greens looks perfect.
ReplyDeleteI love when I find things I already had! I love the little gift wrapped on the chair. If you are looking for something to add maybe a little frame would be shiny and cute sitting on that table, but I like the simplicity that you have going on.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so pretty!! It is in a perfect spot, perfectly decked out! :)
ReplyDeletei LOVE when that happens!!! it looks perfect!
ReplyDeleteDarling! I never remember to plant paperwhites until I start seeing them blooming in the stores and stuff. Good job!!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, that is pretty amazing that you just happened to have the PERFECT table you were looking for right in your "own back yard!" That whole corner looks beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love it all and title of the post...Using what you've got. It's perfect all together and I love that you can see your Christmas twinkle lights in the windows reflection. oh, and the package all wrapped up with a green bow is pretty perfect too!
ReplyDeletePretty Pretty! Fresh! I love this vignette and how you've filled the corner space and found a spot for the paper whites...fantastique~
ReplyDeleteI love it!!!! M
ReplyDeleteVery sweet corner! I love the table. Also, the greenery really stands out against the white. Very fresh and clean looking. I love the acorns! Maybe a few round ornaments to go with...I think! Enjoy~
ReplyDeleteLove it! So pretty, fresh and clean! That window is georgeous!
ReplyDeleteWonderful corner!The window and the table are indeed georgeous but I LOVE that chair!!!
ReplyDeleteA very merry Christmas to you and yours!

What a darling little corner~ I love the window and the chair- so pretty! The table is perfect for your spot and the paperwhites just lovely!
ReplyDeleteLove the paperwhites! I grew some as well - I had to keep finding ways to reinforce them as they kept tipping over - any ideas you came up with them to keep them upright?!
ReplyDeleteI never got around to that wreath chandelier but it is definitely in my inspiration files and I will hopefully get around to it some year to come!
