Taking Time

I know you all must be getting tired of seeing

pictures of my bedroom, but I keep finding

 vintage accessories in pinks and 

creamy whites that I just can't resist.

I found this lovely vintage silver tray at the French Hen

Barn Sale and the pink mercury glass candle holder at 

Pier One for half off after Christmas.

I think they make the perfect couple.

  Instead of packing away all my Christmas bulbs, I kept 

these creamy white ones out and mixed them with little

sprigs of soft pink berries.  They add more texture and interest

to the arrangement, while softening the transition between 

the tray and candleholder.

Today I found a pretty creamy white linen table runner with 

a delicate lace edging  at a local antique store 

to complete the vignette.

For me the beauty of this vignette is the combination

of the delicate lace edging and the detail of the silver tray.

One of my New Year's resolutions is to slow down and

enjoy the beauty in life.  For me that means not only smelling the

roses but also taking time to light the candles.
