But I found myself looking at it and thinking, "Blaaaahh." Maybe it was because, with the kids going back to school, I'm not in a beachy mood. Maybe it was that it had been sitting there long enough that I had begun to look at it as clutter instead of beauty. Or maybe it just didn't have enough layers as I find myself being drawn to in my accessorizing these days. Whatever the reason, it no longer made me smile. So it was time for a little change.I pulled together a collection of white soap dishes, added in some wonderfully smelling decorative soaps, fake pearls, faucet knobs and a delightfully fragrent candle. Then I placed them a top an old china platter, layered on a tarnished silver tray.
Now that makes me smile.
What about you? Do you have accessories that you feel Blah about? If so it's time to make a change. Rearrange items, pull things from other rooms, give them a new coat of paint, or live without any accessories in that spot for a while. Whatever it takes,
give yourself another opportunity to
smile about your home.

That looks so pretty. It's about time for me to decorate for Fall!I'm trying to hold off a few more weeks but then a re-do!!!!
LOVE it!
Very Pretty!
But you are so right. There are a ton of Blaaaaahh's at my house. Time for me to de-clutter I think! :-D
I have been layering lately too! Love the new look!
That is so charming. I love the idea of layering trays like that. I've been accumulating so many tarnished silver trays and cannot find a darn use for them! Now I have one! Thanks!

LOVE the faucet handles - it all looks good to me!
I agree- it's amazing what a little rearranging will do to the whole feel of a room.
Very Smile Worthy!
Yup...that is better.. I am anxiously awaiting Fall to do some more tweaking, too!

Very pretty! I've been feeling pretty Blah about most of the house. It's been the same for the most part, since we moved in 2 years ago. I am slowly making changes though.
Most ANYtime I walk into one of my rooms, if I don't have a fleeting thought of "I LOVE this room", it is time to tweek a little.
I'll wait a few more weeks before changing out too much...altho I AM going to makeover my dining room just a tad...nothing serious or big...just have a few things I'm needing to redo.
I loved the first look with the candle and star shell. But I really love the new look, those handles are just great, and the soaps are so pretty,,, great job... I do the same thing some times,,, drives my hubby nuts..lol

As the seasons change...gorgeous!!
So pretty! There's nothing like "shopping the house" ! My husband doesn't quite understand why I have an entire armoire filled with different frames, candles and such, but being at home all the time- sometimes you just need to switch it up!
That's really some pretty piece of styling.

So pretty. I was looking at my mantle today and wanting to get my fall stuff out and change it up. I guess I am ready to let go of summer *sigh*

cute tray idea.

Those are really interesting pieces. Are you planning a nautical- theme for the bathroom? You can use a nice size photographic print of jellyfish, sea-dragon or dolphins as enhancement.
