Springtime {Easter Coffee Table}

 In the living room, the coffee table {Niche Modern Home} holds a collection of books, as well as other accessories. I like to add some seasonal accessories throughout the year. 

A blue and white chinoserie bowl {Perino's Home & Garden} is filled with gilded eggs {Aux Belles Choses}.  A sculptural porcelain tulip {Gulf Coast Home} sits in a white cachepot. I love the look of the tulip and gold gilded metal leaves.

A vintage-style foil wrapped bunny is also a perfect accessory for the Easter vignette.

Also, the coffee table holds a set of gilded turtle shells {Hazelnut} and a favorite Baobab candle {Sotre}.

The coffee table in the living room is definitely feeling like Spring these days.

Springtime Coffee Table, y'all!

Tweet! Tweet! Three Little Birds

During my shopping excursion with Amanda of Dixie Delights during Mardi Gras season, I purchased the most adorable hand-painted birds on stands from Hazelnut. I finally got around to photograph them in place. The birds are perfect for the spring season, so each landed on the antique desk in the living room. The birds are perfect with my ibis lamp, blue and white ginger jar, Baobab candle, and Audubon's Aviary coffee table book. The blue and white painted birds add to the whimsy of the spring season.

Looking like Spring on the Mantle

There's always a lull after the Mardi Gras decorations are put away. So with guests coming to town and temperatures in the 80s, I decided to add a couple vases with bunches of tulips from Dunn & Sonnier. 

Each vase features a gold leaf stripe affixed with an agate. The brass bunny and fox from Timothy DeClue Collection are fun to use. Two New Orleans door trays exclusive to Hazelnut make a nice backdrop, and a Baobab Pearl candle from Sotre sets the sense of smell.

Spring on the Mantle, y'all!
