Ever notice that when you want to add one new decor piece it ends up leading to a complete revamp of the whole area?
I bought this pillow at the Springfield Extravaganza from a friend who had a booth near us. The pillows were created by her Mom as a surprise for her. The money from their sales goes to bring home their son they are adopting. I mentioned that here.
I wanted to put the pillow in a prominent spot where I can see it often and I didn’t especially want my kids to play with it and constantly toss it on the floor. Putting it on this chair in my dining room nook seemed like a better spot than in my living room.
Then I added on of my garage sale finds – this darling birdcage to the space. And a stack of books on the basket carrier.
The flowers were from a bouquet I got for my birthday from my sister. I took the bouquet apart and used the different flowers in several different places in my home.
Added a bird nest.
An Ironstone sugar bowl from may garage sale finds seemed to fit in well with the pillow and some more of the flowers tucked in it seemed cheery.
The basket carrier got switched out for an old basket I found at Salvation Army while out hunting for finds to take to the Springfield flea. I am really liking this basket – it was not priced to sell at Springfield as I fully intended to bring it home with me 😀
And that is how it has stayed for the past several days. I like it – it makes me happy. Till the next fun find has me rearranging once again!
Do you redo everything when you add one new piece??

beautiful nook! love that pillow, and such a great story behind that
So pretty! Love your new pillow and the daisies in the bird cage look so sweet! I never would have thought about that arrangement.
Thank you Lisa – I saw some sort of flowers put in a birdcage this way by Lucy over at Craftberry Bush.
I can definitely relate to bringing something new home and then having to change everything around it! I love your new pillow! I like the whole vignette you set up around it.
It just seems to be part of our creative spirit to want to move things around and refluff huh Kelly!?!
I love that pillow Jill, and it looks so pretty with the white ironstone and especially the purple statice. And there’s that sweet little crown that used to be in your header, right? That’s a sweet little corner. Well done!
Debbie
Thanks Debbie – not sure if that crown has been in my header before or not – I have another one that is made out of the same stuff. One of them was in the header at some point not sure if they both have been 🙂
What a beautiful arrangement! The pillow is gorgeous!
Thanks Leslie, that pillow is one of my favorite things right now!
Oh so pretty! I adore the crown and floor covering too!
Thanks Laura!
Adorable spot!
Thanks Jane! Did the package make it to you?
I love your display. I love rearranging too! I have been doing that alot lately. Enjoy your day!
Thank you Pam – rearranging is the best way for me to deep clean anything!
What a gorgeous little vignette! I love the pictures. They brightened my day 🙂
Thanks Karen!
Oh, Jill, I love your nook! Every detail is so pretty!! 🙂
Susan
Thanks Susan – I love that area too!
I love your pillow, I love that the money spent on the pillow is going to help a family bring a child into their home. I love how you have styled your nook…but I really love that brought that basket to sell in your booth but didn’t price it to sell because you knew it would be coming home with you…for some reason that just makes me smile and nod in agreement.
Kindred spirits Amy! So fun to have friends who ‘get’ what I do! 🙂
It’s a sickness – but a good one! Keeps us from getting bored! I Love that birdcage and the way you displayed the flowers inside!
Kelly
Thanks Kelly! I really like this birdcage and am having fun with it!
Yes, of course, one thing always leads to another! Love your little spot there with the table chair and all the cute additional decor!

Thank you Yvonne! We enjoy this nook a lot – it’s a fun addition to the house and makes the room seem so much bigger. Plus it’s so fun to decorate!
I love your nook!!! So cheery! Dianntha
This is such a beautiful nook you’ve arranged – you must enjoy looking at it throughout you day. The pillow is awesome, the birdcage is really beautiful. Love the way you’ve used your bouquet to add pops of color. The basket is a keeper for sure. Saw your link at Savvy Southern Style, thanks for sharing.
