After the mammoth task of packing away the Christmas decorations I decided to freshen up the loungeroom with a bit of bright colour.
I love decorating the mantelpiece and try to create different looks each time I do it.
This time I have gone for a fresh blue, yellow and white theme with a collection of bottles, Mozi fruit tea lights and flowers from the garden. Loving the dahlias.
I'm also clearly still loving "the stick".
And of course some iceberg roses.
The garden is in between blooms at the moment so there's not a lot out. I love the yellow with the blues though. Must plant more dahlias :)
Well, did you guys have a lovely weekend? I have to say I did. After some pottering in the garden the lovely Kerry and her partner Richard came to visit. That means Kerry is now privy to all the dodgy, fallen down bits at Molly's Maison. We had a great time! On Sunday I went to the farmers market and came home with some lovely flowers, a plant and some fantastic French pastries. Boy, the pastries didn't last long. Lyndon was lucky I didn't eat his!
Have a great week bloggies. Looks like being a warm one here :)

ReplyDeleteLove the stick! Fresh, simple and very
ReplyDeletepretty. It's very satisfying changing a look around the house isn't it?
Have a great week x
Everyone has a dodgy area of the house...at least my friends do....
ReplyDeleteYou mantle looks so fresh and pretty.
I loved it all...even though you wouldn't let me see all the dodgy bits! We had a wonderful visit with you both...thank you :) and those dahlias look even better in person. You've inspired me to plant some!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, love all the shades of blue and green glass :)
ReplyDeleteThe colour looks great against the white wall - love it! Wish I had a mantlepiece I could style up. How lovely to have had Kerry come visit. Sounds like you had a wonderful weekend x
ReplyDeleteI must admit I'm warming to dahlias, your yellow and white ones are quite delightful, I like the pear and apple too! It's nice to have some warm weather again,
ReplyDeleteI never really change my mantle, just for occasions like Christmas or Easter. I think I'll take your lead and do something different this week. We are currently in the middle of a wet few days here in Brisbane and the temperature has really dropped. Enjoy your sunshine.

I really LOVE your mantel - first, you are lucky you have one! (I don't) and second, the jars and containers all look lovely! have a great week - ;-))
ReplyDeletehow cool it would have been for the two of you girls to get together. and the dahlias look sensational, one of my favourite flowers! xx
ReplyDeleteWow, your mantlepiece looks great! blue and yellow is such a bright cheery combination. LOVE the stick too!

I love the second and fourth pics best. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeletethat truck is amazing. I would love if it was real and working. My countryside would be full of pieces of art! Really how can people come up with such terrific ideas?
ReplyDeleteThanks for your words.
Sumptuous, Sarah. I need to get you over here to style ours! J x
