Do you have a space in your house that you LOVe, LOVe, LOVe? Does that place make you happy inside everytime you pass it by? I have a space in my great room, my buffet. I just LOVe it, I LOVe the piece of furniture, I LOVe the picture above it. I LOVe that even if that is the only thing that I decorate I feel like the whole room is done. This is what it looks like right now. Thinking I may change it up to beach stuff for the summer.
I loved how this turned out for Valentine's day and it was so simple. The hearts were so really easy. I purchased wooden hearts and covered them with scrapbook papers. Some I textured, I added ink to the edges. I did the same thing with the XOXO and mounted that on a small photo album. The one thing that inspired me was the chocolate candy candles. They smelled like the real thing and I knew I had to have them and make a Valentine table. The teapot doesn't show well but it's a love letter. I LOVe it!
I was so happy how this turned out. I simply purchased letters at HobLob and hung them on the wall and framed them up. (Now I have a frame I am not using, I hope you share my plan with that soon.) You can't see it very well but there is the cutest little elf sitting on a glass block. I'm always trying to think of ways to bring my walls into Christmas decorating, this was the perfect solution.
This picture turned out awful, this was before I got my new camera. Fall is my favorite season. Here in Texas we don't always see alot of fall trees so I have to create it in my house. I love the combination of blue and rust colors.
One thing that makes this whole process easy is having a good stock of basic items that you can use over and over in different ways. Most of these items are used other places in my house. I simply gather up what would work for the table I am trying to create. I also have a small closet I leave alot of these items in so that I can grab them up quickly and make a table scape.
So I hope you have a place that you LOVe, that makes you happy, if not go around your house and gather up a bunch of stuff and start playing!

I have many places I love to decorate in my house! I can see why you are crushing on your buffet though. It's a lovely piece of furniture and a great focal point! Thanks so much for linking up :).
LOVE that turquoise lamp and the bunny rabbit! I've been on the lookout for a piece like that buffet. :) Visiting from Beth's "Vignette" party. :)
You have such a beautiful buffet to start with! Lovely vignettes!
Thanks guys,I purchased that buffet at Sams club a couple of years ago and I made the turquoise lamp. Check out my blog to see how to make one yourself.
