Decorating Details Make a Room

By Anita 14 Comments

Last week I talked about adding decorating details that have a big impact,  CLICK HERE. Today, let’s continue to take a look at things you can add to your home that could have a big impact.

This first item is large, but you could use something similar but on a much smaller scale. This is an architectural fragment. I really don’t know much about it, except that it’s old and from Europe. It’s doesn’t have a large footprint, so it works in my entryway. You could find an architectural fragment that is smaller for your home, and I think it would still have a big impact.

I had some very tall things on my counter top in this bathroom, but the room seemed cluttered to me. I replaced the items with shorter things. And I love this Florentine tissue box. decorating details bathroom

They are vintage and hand-painted, made in Italy. I have about 4 of these. I love the look of the dispenser.

I also used a champagne bucket to hold hand towels in the bathroom. Well… why not?

This old shelf upstairs in our home gets a new look quite often. I moved the dancing French peasants in here. The carved wood candlesticks provide a nice look. I even added the bucket with dried lavender. The cache pot is empty, but it’s pretty and worthy of display on its own. I’ve got a large basket on the floor to hold pillows I am rotating in and out of rooms. This is basically a holding area for the extras.

My pantry was a wreck, until we recorded this episode. I was so motivated to throw out the junk and re-organized my pantry immediately following the recording. If you need some motivation to get yours organized, do not miss this one.

    All lovely. But where did you move the little tabletop terrarium with the tea cups that I have been OBSESSESED with? I have searched every site I could think of for something remotely the same. It must be one of a kind.

      Cassandra, I found that at a store about 15 years ago. The store closed about 10 years ago, and I don’t know where they found the little greenhouse. I wish I had some information for you.
