Decorating With My New Finds

Hello everyone!

As I promised, in my last post, I am sharing where my new finds from Ikea ended up.

I combined the white enamelware pitcher and  basket as a centerpiece for my table in the kitchen.  Take a look at those tall paper whites in the background!  I guess they're on their last leg.  

I like the size and the combination of the white pitcher with the nubby texture of the basket.  It looks like a very simple country centerpiece.

I also bought some grey kitchen linens.  I love that color in here.

In my sitting room, I switched out the chandelier that was in here for this new light.

I like the look of this light because of the cotton fabric shade.  I felt it complimented the white slipcovers in the room. The chandelier that was in here will be relocated to my upstairs hallway.

Here it is with the light turned on.  I have this on a dimmer switch too, so I can turn down the brightness if needed.

My inspiration for this light came from this room.

My favorite piece is this trunk!  It had to be put together but was very easy.  I placed it in front of the fireplace. I love the versatility of this piece.

It's large enough to fill with blankets or throws.  I placed some of my vintage grain sacks on top. Now, I'd like to get more.

So that's the round-up of where everything ended up!  I'm loving getting back to my neutrals now that Christmas is over.  Everything feels back in balance now. Very clean and clutter free.  

Thanks for stopping by!
