Hello, Dear Ones.
I decided it was time to put something on the coffee table in the living room.
I also changed out the pillows on the sofa and added these soft mossy green ones.
I pulled out a couple of cloches and poked them down on the table.
I found these little mossy balls at either Michaels or Hobby Lobby.
So I sat the big one on a little crystal vase and squshed it under the cloche.
Did the same thing with a medium sized green mossy ball.
I just left the third green mossy ball sitting on a soft mossy green runner all scrunched up.
I learned to scrunch up runners from Marty at A Stroll Thru Life.
As you can see, my little helper/companion is never too far from my side.
Hope you're all doing well.
I've been busy teaching myself to use Microsoft Excel because I need to make some spread sheets for Mr. Precious.
I'm doing it and stretching my tiny mind!

I'll leave you with a little Note Song ~
Green, Green
Green, green,
It's green they say,
On the far side of the hill.
Green, green,
I'm going away to where
The grass is greener still.
A-well, I told my mama
On the day I was born,
Don't you cry
When you see I'm gone.
You know there ain't no woman
Gonna settle me down.
I just gotta be traveling on,
A-singing...
Nah, there ain't nobody
In this whole wide world
Gonna tell me how to spend my time.
I'm just a good loving rambling man,
Say, buddy, can you spare me a dime?
Hear me crying, it's a...
Yeah, I don't care
When the sun goes down,
Where I lay my weary head.
Green, green valley or rocky road,
It's there I'm gonna make my bed.
Easy, now...

Oh Shelia, your living room is so pretty. Bringing in the greens for spring!
ReplyDeleteShelia,
ReplyDeleteLove the mossy green boxwood spheres under your cloches, dear friend!
The pillows on your couch are a near match to the fabric on our His & Her chairs in our Living Room!
I adore the scrunching of the table runner!!! That Marty is such an inspiration to us all!
You're going to L O V E making spread sheets!!!
Have a blessed weekend,dear one!!!
Fondly,
Pat
Your vignette looks so pretty! I like any decor with boxwood touches.
ReplyDeleteSmiles,
Carol
Pretty cloches ! Looks like you are ready for spring :)
ReplyDeleteYou're too cute! I like your new arrangement on the coffee table. The cloches look great with the green balls and vases- that's a neat look! The soft green is a nice color and looks great with your room. Good luck with the spread sheet!
ReplyDeleteI remember that song, Sheila! It is good to stretch our minds sometimes.:-)
ReplyDeleteDarling look, it reminds me of spring with all the green. Beautiful idea:)
ReplyDeleteSweet additions to your beautiful room...love your little helper! :)

Really pretty! Good for you on the Excel. I wish I knew how to use that.
ReplyDeleteYour room is so pretty. They look like boxwood, lovely cloches!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, Shelia! I thought of Marty when I saw the scrunched up runner. I may just try that! Love the moss balls!
ReplyDeleteXO,

I actually remember watching The New Christy Minstrels perform in concert. Your topiary cloches are really effective. Great idea. Cherry Kay
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Shelia! I love garden balls of any kind and they look so elegant in your cloches. XO ~Liz
ReplyDeleteHi Shelia,
ReplyDeleteI love the way you PLAY!! Everything just turns out so pretty.
And of course Miss Chloe Dawn is precious too!

I think I'm ready for a little bit of green on the tables before I leave for Texas!
ReplyDeletehugs, Linda
Your table looks wonderful, Shelia. I love the cloches and the bits of green there. That old song immediately began to run through my head. I think I had every song on albums that The New Christy Minstrels ever sang. Good for you for learning Excel- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteLovely arrangement with the boxwood /cloches...looks like Spring is around the corner!
ReplyDeleteLove your pretty vignette! Very clever using the boxwood balls with the crystal and glass cloches! And I love the fabric print of your sofa! Good luck with the computer challenges, you'll have down in a breeze! :)
ReplyDeleteThe coffee table cloches are really clever. I love your sofa and chairs too.
ReplyDeleteSheila, I love your coffee table vignette! Your crystal is just beautiful and looks great with the greenery! I love your scrunched up table runner...I noticed that at Marty's as well! Nice!

Your coffee table looks amazing. Love the cloches and the runner is fabulous all scrunched. Hugs, marty
ReplyDeleteElevating the greenery inside the cloches was a great idea. Love the new pillows, too. It does not take much to change the look of a whole room. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what is sweeter - your vignette, your room, or your helper! I love it all! Hope you can stop by the enchanted oven to say hi.
ReplyDeletexo,

ReplyDeleteIt appears that Garden balls are the thing for spring. I gotta go hunting. Your living room is so pretty. Love all the beautiful colors.
ReplyDeleteI recently found some preserved boxwood balls. Love the way these greens look atop simple things. I used urns, but love the look of your crystal. I need to find some cloches. '-)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the boxwood and use those in my home quite a bit too! It all looks beautiful Sheila! :-)

Good morning Shelia, I love your pretty green balls displayed so sweetly on your coffee table. Simple elegance.
ReplyDeleteI have been fighting with Excel too. My garden club yearbook is a mixture of Word and Excel. I holler for Bill when someone sends me a page on Excel. It is just different but I know people love it. I am not so sure I do. HA!
Have fun learning. I know you can do this my sweet friend.
Love, Jeanne
I love these faux boxwood balls, and the moss ones too. I've been using them a lot.
ReplyDeleteGreat to have you at Seasonal Sundays.

I love those little mossy balls you used! They look great in a grouping like that too. I know what you mean about having a little companion follow you around everywhere. I have the same thing at my house.
ReplyDeleteStopping by from Brenda's blog...loving your cloches!
ReplyDeleteO' sweet Sheila,this is classy & oh so divine.Love the pops of green.Get'n ready to put on the green for St Patricks.I love the mossy green balls,perfect...Lucky of the Irish to ya.
ReplyDeleteYour coffee table cloche vignette is so pretty, Shelia! In fact your entire room is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteaw ... your doggie looks very similar to mine {we have a mini-schnauzer named Cooper} =)
ReplyDeleteScrunchy runners are some of my fave things. :) Love your updates, Shelia...starting to feel a lot like spring! Won't be long now! I love seeing sweet Miss Chloe Dawn in the background...our furry faces are always the best decoration of all, aren't they? :)
ReplyDeleteShelia, your coffee table looks so nice. I like the green balls you used with the cloches and the table runner really finishes it. Very nice.
