Decorating with vintage

 Hi Everyone
Happy Wednesday

A timeless way to decorate your home
  is to use what you  may  already have in the kitchen
or in your garden
♥
A easy  inexpensive way to add color
and  fragrance to any room is to add
a simple bowl of bright yellow lemons
 This recently found vintage wicker tray 
from the Long Beach flea market
got a little makeover today
Latte our cat
liked the tray too
Look at the funky vintage shelf  paper
on the bottom of the wicker tray
 A little white paint gave the tray 
a new crisp clean look
 Adding the vintage
~white ironstone~
bowl full of lemons
gives the room a 
timeless elegance

    It's amazing what a transformation a little bit of white paint can do. So pretty.

    Hi Pam! This is very pretty! Love that wicker tray you found and it looks beautiful painted white. I love to see pretty lemons on display too! I've just picked over two dozen from my lemon tree and have juiced them and now I have lots of lemon juice in the freezer! ;)
    Be a sweetie,
    Shelia;)

    What a great tray, Pam! Such a great size and I love it white. Something as simple as lemons in your white ironstone bowl make for a lovely vignette.

    The tray looks darling, and of course I just love the white of it.

    It looks so pretty, Pam. I love decorating - and cooking - with lemons, too.

    My mother had that very same shelf paper about forty years ago. You tapped a memory for me.

    Love the picture of your big orange cat. He loks like my beloved "Mister". I miss him, he was a talker. Great tray makeover too.
