Joining the Party over at Funky Junk!



Donna is having another party this weekend over here.
This time it's all about vignettes. Lots of gals are already linking up, so I decided to join the party myself. I've never joined a blog party, and I'm not really sure who Mr. Linky is, but I'm told it's painless to get to know him.

Let me preface this post by saying that, as I was taking these pictures, I realized that I shouldn't take pictures in my house at night. My lights are really yellow - I must change that some day. Maybe tomorrow I'll retake these pics during the day and replace the dark ones. For now, bear with me.
Edited 10/28 to add: I changed the pics to ones taken during the daytime. I just couldn't get past so much of the yellow coloring. I left the first pic as is because I couldn't get a good one in daylight.

Starting in the living room, and traveling through a few more rooms, I'll just post the pics without explanation since this party is just about the look.
I hope you enjoy my little vignettes.






                                     



I hope you've found a little inspiration in some of these.
Happy Decorating!

  1. What a beautiful home! As I was looking at your photos I found myself wishing I could tour it in person. Great colors and textures and I love all your silver platters!

  2. Great vignettes. My favorite is the one with the silver tray & the frames prints on easels. That one speaks to me for some reason. Thanks for sharing yours.

  3. These pictures are beautiful. I think the yellow light you mentioned actually looks stunning too, gives it an olde-worlde feeling.

  4. Polly, what a beautiful home! Elegance and flair everywhere you look! These pics simply aren't enough. It's as if the walls are cut much too short as a tease. I must go investigate a little deeper here. :)

    I see you are a designer by trade. Boy could I learn alot from you.

    Thanks for linking up to the party!

  6. You have a beautiful home and loved all your vignettes. My favorite was the shelf with the turkey and chicken pitures over it. You are good at what you do. I think the yellow light gave it cozy feel.

  7. Hi - I found you via Funky Junk Interiors recap of the Saturday Night Vignette party. Your hanging display of old silver pieces caught my eye because I have been collecting some pieces and was going to do a similar display. I loved seeing how you displayed yours....thanks for the inspiration.

  8. Oooooh that last picture -I just adore those trays! Funky Junk girl was right - I am in awe! Btw, you've prob heard this a zillion times, but you look just like that beautiful singer from the Country trio, gosh darn I can't think of the name. Well you know who I'm talkin' about. And yes, it is a compliment!!! Kim

  9. Thank you so much ladies. I really try to make our home comfortable for us, so I certainly don't follow any decorating rules in my own home. If I see it and like it, it comes home with me, and I find a place for it after the fact. I try to surround myself with things I truly appreciate and find beauty in.

    Kimmcl, would that be Natalie Maines of Dixie Chicks? Funny thing is, I've never gotten that comment in real life before, but since I started this blog, I hear it all the time. Isn't that weird? I'm gonna have to go look up her picture.
