Plates, Pictures or Mirrors Oh My

Getting Ready For the Holidays, I am getting my Fall Mantle and Sideboard ready for the Fam

I have 2 areas to put my pictures and plates up

Over the Fireplace

 Or over the Sideboard :  Plates, Pictures or Mirrors

I have my shell mirror or my shabby chic mirror, my Irish Prayer Picture or My Cow Picture

 The fireplace or the sideboard

 My Blue and White Plate Collection

 So many combos and so many choices

I think I like the white and blue on the blue walls

And then I switch the other way
So now what am I going to do?

I will have to make a decision but I think I will wait and keep walking in the room!  I love my leaf banner and will keep that through Thanksgiving.  So easy to do I used a leaf cookie cutter on an old book and then stitched them together quickly on the sewing machine.  I then cut a ribbon the length of my string of leafs and sewed the ribbon on.  It was last years project but so much fun to put on my new fireplace.



What design decisions are you pondering this week?

Any input is always appreciated...Di
