teacup

A pretty teacup and saucer from the set my cousin gave me for my bridal shower. Part of a little vingette on my hutch.

herbs

Here's another guy I made at work. A cute little arrangement with 5 different kinds of silk herbs. This would look cute on a kitchen counter or amongst your plants. They are resting in a terracotta saucer with moss in between them.

Also more of the beautiful scrapbooking frames I found online.

birdcage

I made this birdcage arrangement by just adding a few flowers and a nest to it. I wanted to keep it kind of natural looking and not going overboard with flowers. I think the end result is just that.

I know what your thinking...that bird laid those huge eggs?? :)
Have a happy monday.

bouquet friday 4

It's bouquet friday here at the Happy Snow Globe, and I present to your bouquet number four. Many stems of Baby's Breath wrapped together with white satin ribbon with a sheer peach bow. Simple but elegant.

more pins

Here's another picture of my pins in the tiny birdbath. I have been playing around with some Digital Scrapbooking. So I thought I would share with you my first attempt!

happy thursday!

fast update

I did this fast and easy update to these two small dishes I had up on my wall. I bought a roll of pink and brown polka dot ribbon from Michaels, which was only $1. Tied a strip to the plate hanger and hot glued a bow I made to the top. I think it makes it a lot more interesting looking than the plain white dishes before.

dress form update

Remember back in June, when I got this lady at a sale for only $3?! Well I finally did something with it. While rearranging a bit I decided to bring her downstairs and decorate her. I added some of my favorite garden shots of mine, and also added some diamond pins I collected awhile ago. It looks so cute in the corner of the dining room.

I think next time I'll put some black and white pics on it for a more antique look!

(the round diamond pin in the middle was the broach i wore on my wedding dress)

fresh looking

I took the whole day on Sunday and finally got the house back to normal after we took down all of the holiday decorations (which we took down a while ago!). I love rearranging things quite often so the house looks fresh looking. Can't wait to show you the other things I set up around the house!

bouquet friday 3

Here is bouquet number 3 I made. This one I would say is another classic...classic RED roses. I took a bunch of them and wrapped them up in red satin ribbon. I did add some sparkly details: on each rose head I added a swarovski crystals to add some shine. I also added a row of them on the wrapped stems. Perfect for the classic but modern bride!

hyacinth

A couple of weeks ago I bought a Hyacinth at Wegmans, which happens to be one of my favorite flowers. So I thought it would be cool to see the progression of when the bulb starts to flower. another look to SPRING!

enjoy!

how does your garden grow

I made this cutie the other day. I used a cloche and a glass plate, then filled it with smaller flowers, rocks, reinder moss, little birds and eggs. The end result: a little enclosed garden. Simple and cute, and perfect for SPRING!

bouquet friday 2

Here's another bouquet I made for work. This one I wanted to give it a classic bride feel to it. I used four hydrangeas and tied it with a "Tiffany Blue" color.

A few days later that week I received my Martha Stewart Weddings magazine in the mail (my friend bought the subscription for me for my bday) and they had a similar white bouquet tied with the same color ribbon; I guess I'm right up with the trends!
