One, I got it in Portland while visiting one of my best friends, so it will always have the memory of our flea market shopping day. The vintage bust is my favorite element for two reasons. The ‘poppy’ candle is from Target, as well as the glass vase. I think I’ve used it for cheese board displays before, but I like it better here. The wood slab I ultimately used was something I had lying around the house. I watched the whole thing go down on our new Ring doorbell… and to make matters worse, it was the LAST one on Amazon so I couldn’t replace it! I hope the lady who stole it enjoys it and really needed a wooden tray to make her life better. The original wood tray I ordered off of Amazon was the perfect size and shape for the table, but unfortunately, it got stolen right off my front porch. But first, it was time to work on the table!įor the top, I had done a poll on Stories and wood tray + candles won as the most popular option. I was excited to see what I could come up with. I don’t want to overwhelm the small size of the table. Overall, the goal with decor is to be for intentional and simple. Functionally, it did not make sense at all to have a chicken wire basket with a fur blanket… such a challenge to access. It kind of became a catch-all for things that I didn’t know what else to do with. The decor on top of it is fine, but I can do better. Over Christmas, I had a cute woven piece hanging there, which was a bit more narrow, and it looked significantly better. I needed to replace it with something more proportional. The art/sconce above it is too big for the wall. There is also a lot of color going on in the space (think blue velvet and green) so teal doesn’t really add anything. I have a lot of black metal and tan leather throughout the rest of the living room, so I wanted to incorporate that more, or at least have it feel more cohesive. Paint and new hardware would completely change the vibe. It falls more into the “rustic” category, which doesn’t go with my house at all.
