It is possible to have pretty things and kids at the same time. We kind of have managed to blend the best of both worlds– mom’s pretty things and all the kiddo stuff. So much kiddo stuff. More on the kiddo stuff later. Today, it is the pretty things.
Styling a shelf is a little bit of things up and down, sideways, paired, stacked, etc.
These are things acquired over time. A bulb box I decoupaged, a tray on clearance from Target, a leather rope ball also on clearance at Target, some thrift store globes, an adorable cross stitch of my family from my SIL, and other fun finds.
That flower pot was a little DIY project you can find here.
Obviously there are always the walls.
I also have a console in the dining room that is ever-changing. Right now it is Valentine’s day.
Layers, stacks, mixing materials, a pair of things here or there– that is the trick to “styling”, but really it is just about loving your space. So pile it on and go big. Tomorrow we will talk kid stuff.
So tell me, do you make space for your pretty things?
