My Place: Taking the Outdoors Inside!

I'm not sure why, but I have an infatuation with bringing things that belong outdoors indoors for decor.  Take, for example, this old door that I found.

 
I absolutely LOVE old doors, and the older and rustier the better.  I placed a wreath on it to make it feel more homey, and some white lights behind it for Christmas, and I absolutely loved the feel.  Needless to say, those lights are staying up far past Christmas!


I hung my earrings and jewelry on a shutter that I found at a garage sale last summer.  I got a few for what I thought would be for photo props, and after spending some months in my closet I thought I should put it to use!  I have hooks above to hang my headbands and long necklaces, but you could definitely place tacks on the top and hang it off there!

This was/is supposed to be a photo prop, but I love displaying this old ladder when it's not in use! I only use it for decoration purposes and well, to dry flowers, but I've also seen it used to place towels on, which is a great idea!

This table is actually a flower pot stand.  It is the perfect tiny size to fit in this small space, and -if you didn't know all ready- I love that old rustic feel!  I also think those birds on the table and the plate match wonderfully!

I think that no matter what size your space is, you should make it your own!  In doing this for me I have noticed a trend - bringing the outdoors outside!  I wonder now how I will like to decorate the outdoors...

With Love,
