Living here in Alpine there’s a little bit of a country feel. Although we are very close to larger cities, it’s definitely rural.
I mean when you have to stop for both a chicken and a squirrel crossing the road in the same day you know that says country!
The other day I made a little switcheroo out on the porch. I decided to exchange the large window I had out there for a rickety piece of picket fence.
I began to carry the window inside to the storage room, when the thought occurred, “why store it? Just switch it up”.
I leaned it against a wall in the living room and gave it a touch of France.
This sweet paper mache florist planter was dolled up by my hairdresser, Shalona. She had it for sale in her shop and I thought it was so sweet. I have had it for some time and still love it! I filled it with a cluster of Pink Yarrow picked from the garden.
Coffee filter and book page flowers circle the brim. A blinged up rosette is tied around the center with satin ribbon.
A nice pairing with my lacy lampshade and little French stool!
Oh-la-la!
I love my little bit of French in the country!
hugs,
Jann

Jann, I had to laugh about stopping for a chicken and squirrel in one day. LOL. Yes, I'd say that was country. I like the change up. I'll be out in Utah next month. :):) Blessings, xoxo,Susie

No doubt about it - a squirrel and a chicken equal country!

I think it could be changed up year round and never put away as you are so creative!!
Very pretty Jann !
What a nice touch to add inside! Love the yarrow. I just planted a bunch this summer. Can't wait to see it bloom!
It doesn't take much for us gals to have a little decorating fun.
That's a cutie pie window, now. Love it..and...I love your snow flakes and holly on your background...cools me off a bit. :)
I love it too! Très très jolie!
Nice photos, great flowers! wonderful french touch !!
Oooh, super charming, Jann. I love it! Your yarrow is so pretty. You've had a great gardening season. xxx ~ Nancy
That little stool really caught my eye! So pretty!
I had to look really hard to see the coffee filter Jann. You did a great job of making it look like anything BUT what it is!
What a delightful spot!
Such a sweet little spot. So eye catching!
