I Want to Hang a Deer Head on my Wall

My last post brought me down just a little bit, so I started "dream decorating" the living room in our new house. This room is relatively small but features a really cool fireplace and a beautiful picture-window facing the covered front porch.

The house we just sold was decorated very traditionally with lots of wood, heavy furniture and a yellow/brown/blue color scheme. I am swinging the pendulum the other direction this time around, picking pieces that reflect our fondness of clean lines, crisp colors and quirky accents.

How's this for a quirky accent? I found this really unique, resin (no, it's not real!) deer head at Etsy.com, which is a great source for funky products from all over the world. I envision this majestic beast right over my mantle. I know people will either love it or hate it, but it's a great conversation piece, right?

I also adore this Owl on a Tree wall graphic, which is perfect for our foyer/reading nook, and this precious Sophisticated Autumn Rose full apron. I want to run and make an apple pie right now!

Finally, check out this Shakti lidded vessel. It is amazing and would be perfect as an accent in a bookshelf or on a dresser.

  1. I'll take a nice soft bed with clean sheets, first. Then we can decorate. I have a moose head in the garage you can have too. It's real!
