Small changes


I loved our Sitting room but have felt something was missing. So we have added two small sofa tables on both sides of the mantle.



My instincts have always been to hang more pictures to fill the space but I did not want to take away from the original piece we have purchased for over the Mantle. 



The past month I have been home from work with a health issue and have been sitting looking at the space trying to decide what I could do to complete the look I was trying to achieve.



I came across these two small sofa tables on-line and they were under $50.00 each so I decided to give them a try.



Many of the magazines I browse have built in bookcases on either side of the mantle but since that is a big commitment and a permanent one, I think this option is a better solution for us for now.



Thank you for stopping in today, I hope you enjoyed your visit. 



Blessing from Our house to Yours,

Hope...Faith... Believe...



Welcome & thank you for stopping in!
I am hoping for the best outcome for my American friends tonight as they tally up their election ballets. 







Aren't the feathers of a Peacock beautiful? I came across a bunch of them for sale at the local Dollarama  store and love the colours. 



My transferware bowl is one of my favourite pieces as a Dear friend gifted it to me for my Birthday years ago and although the years and miles have separated us I think of her every time I see the bowl.










The marking simply says "Lake". I have only seem one more of these in an Antique shop a few years ago and it was marked $75.00 so needless to say I still only have the one. 












  








Enjoy the rest of your week!
Blessings,

Wanda
