Hello, Dear Ones and welcome to Tabletop Tuesday hosted by our Most Wonderful Marty at A Stroll Thru Life! Make sure you pop in to her blog to see the many decorated tabletops today.
I'm showing you my coffee table in my den today.
Just a simple little vignette.
I have a pair of the sweetest little birds perched upon some spare bark pieces. Aren't they the sweetest? :)
Next I've placed a large pottery bowl we purchased in Orvieto, Italy many years ago upon my hostess tray.
See the pretty hand painted details? I love this and my Mr. Precious picked it out!
Now look at the lid. Oh, I think it's just so pretty! Now this most precious piece of pottery is of the color that matches absolutely nothing! So in my tiny decorating mind I tell myself - since it matches absolutely nothing it has to go with absolutely anything I want it to go with. So here it sits in it's blazen gloryness!
Now since I'm the most creative one, I've made an arrangement of faux flowers that are just blooming their tiny hearts out for me. These pretty blooms never wilt, they never die and they never drop their petals! So, what do I say? I love my fauxs and my fauxs love me. Yes sirree bob!! :)
Even though it's a little dreary outside, I will have a burst of color on my coffee table in my den. Now I do want you to see how clever I am - the color of the little birds do match the colors in my pottery piece. See?Now pop on over to Dear Marty's blog for lots of eye candy!
Be a bunch of sweeties,
Shelia ;)
I'll leave you with a little Note Song~

ReplyDeleteThise birds are so cute, Shelia, and the Italian pottery, oh my! How lovely. I love the colors and the painting....Christine
ReplyDeleteSheila, that pottery and birds are so pretty. Didn't you love Italy. We have been twice. Once with a travel club and then to visit my daughter-in-law's family. She is from Italy.
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteYellow and blue ... perfect!
I have been looking at every ones goodies at the party and was partial to the lemon display too... I am thinking that I may just do a yellow and blue theme on my patio this summer... something fresh and new!
I always enjoy looking at your stunning pictures.. it is like a visit to your home!
Many Blessings

I really like this vignette! That beautiful bowl is to die for and it gives a pop of color!
ReplyDeleteThe table is unique, I like the cane (?) bottom. The chair shown in the pictures of our master bedroom has the cane back like the bottom of your table!

ReplyDeleteSheila,
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness your tablescape is gorgeous! I just love the pottery with the faux flowers (I use faux flowers too-it's a great way to enjoy flowers without all the fuss:). Thank you so much for your kind comment on my blog and for your suggestion. I am going to try enlarging my photos and see how it goes. I always appreciate suggestions and I thank you for making this one:). I look forward to visiting your blog again soon!

Kim

Hi Shelia
ReplyDeleteYour tabletop is so simple and elegant. I love the ceramic pot you got in Italy. I have a friend who takes tours to Orvieto several times each year. It sounds like the most wonderful little village.
Hugs, Rhondi
All those pretty things will be replaced with Fisher Price toys when the little one arrives for a visit which will be a good thing:) My house is decorated by a 3 yr old and on my table right now are several cars and trucks. Honestly I forget what I use to have on the tables in our den???
ReplyDeleteJoyce
Well this certainly is a cheerful addition to your living room.
ReplyDeleteNever mind the weather outside.
Your blog never fails to make my day!
Also, I'm just letting all my followers (and you are one) know about my giveaway... nothing to do to enter.
You are already entered!
Just my way to say thanks!
Talk to you soon ;)

Hi Shelia,
ReplyDeleteYou really ARE the creative one, aren't you? And the clever one as well ... when I got to "of the color that matches absolutely nothing!," I laughed out loud. We've all had something THAT color (usually a gift from a well-intentioned friend or relative).
Your fauxs love you ... and WE do to!
Warmest regards,
Bill
Have missed you, Shelia, and I love seeing what Mr. Precious bought you!
ReplyDeleteAm off again...
XO,
Sheila :-)
Your tablescape is wonderful, but I especially love your Italian pottery! It's gorgeous - and it would go in my house perfectly. Thanks for sharing your pretties with us today.
ReplyDelete~Adrienne~
I love your coffee table dress. Italian pottery is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteHave a great evening!

Hi Shelia,
ReplyDeleteYour tablescape on the coffee table is gorgeous. I love the birds. They bring such inspiration for Spring. The pottery is beautiful and the colors are gorgeous together.
I had that same coffee table in square at one time, along with the end tables and sofa table. Your home is stunning and I just love your decorating style.
Have a great evening sweets.
Love to you, Celestina Marie
beautiful colors!

Good morning Sheila, Your bit of sunshine comes through in your vignette. I love your flowers that never die. Go faux!!! The pottery bowl is lovely and displayed so sweet. You know me, I adore the birds. Matching is key to the whole picture. You are genius at pretty decor. I mean it.
ReplyDeleteHave a happy sunshine day.
Hugs, xoxo, Jeanne
That is a lovely tablescape. I really like your Italian pottery piece, especially the hand painted pomegranite design and blue and yellow colors.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the handpainted pottery!

ReplyDeleteKatherine
Hey, girly! Im back! It is so great to visit! Meme
ReplyDeleteLove the colors on the bowl. Everyone should have faux flowers they are always so bright and cheerful and don't drop leaves. Cute birds.
ReplyDeleteThat looks wonderful..beautiful colors!
ReplyDeleteI have some bad news for you though..
When that gbaby starts getting around you will have to take everything off the table!
Mine spin on their bellies on it! I give up! :)
Small price to pay for the best thing in the world!
What a beautiful color the turreen is! Wonderful vignette!
ReplyDeletePsula Grace ~

ReplyDeleteI truly loved this! Oh Spring is coming and has come to your beautiful table! The birds/glassware are exquisite.
ReplyDeleteI thought about this week when our baby came. I am so glad you get to expereince this great joy! The other grandma is a first time grandma and it is always such a enormous blessing. (I prayed for you and your daughter at the beginning and so pleased all is well now.) God luck!
Dear Sheila, I am stopping by to thank you for your sweet comments about CC and Mr. Pinky the rooster. Beverly says he might be a she. LOL.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have the most wonderful weekend.
Love, xoxo, Jeanne
The colors are so pretty. I've always loved blue and yellow together. You know how to put a great look together. Did I mention how sweet those little birdies are? :)
ReplyDeleteDonna
Your table setting looks so pretty. I love your blue Italian bowl.
ReplyDeleteI posted a song and thought of your sweet blog when I did.
Have a wonderful Sunday!
Blessings,
Marcia
Love that gorgeous Italian pottery - and didn't Precious do a fabulous job of choosing!
ReplyDeletexoxo...Kathy
That pottery is just about the most gorgeous thing I've ever seen! Love the little birds too. Since nothing in my house goes with anything else in my house, I agree with you - that pottery goes with anything and everything. I really do think something that beautiful makes a statement on its own and doesn't need to match anything. Can you tell I am smitten with that? laurie
ReplyDeleteVery pretty :)
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to let you know I have 2 more issues of Flea Market Style that I am giving away on my blog:
