Adding Green




I found my self highly inspired by Jennifer's fall post the other day. I have been wanting some fresh flowers, but haven't made my way to the store yet, so I thought I would take Jennifer's route on adding green to my home. On our nightly family walk I decided to bring along my clipping shears and collected some lovely foliage also known as pretty weeds for our home. I am rather pleased with the way it all turned out and love the free price tag even more.

  2. And with my lack on knowledge in the plant department I would never know they were weeds. ;)

  3. I love the subtleness of these additions. Sometimes big plants take over the rest of the decor :)

  4. Very pretty! I am loving all the free weeds right now. But whenever I try to sneak them in the house, Eric's allergies always bust me.

  10. It is amazing what some green can do for the house, isn't it? I brought my Christmas cactus inside yesterday and as little as it is, it's added a loveliness to my kitchen counter. :)

  15. So pretty! Love the color of that top table! We are hoping to paint a console table soon and that would be perfect. If you painted it, what color did you use? Thanks!

  17. Paula - I came on over to your blog after reading Sissy's post about that orange fabric - and I am so glad I did! I'll have to go back and read through your archives. You have a great sense of style, (and even love weeds!)
    Best Wishes, Loretta
