I love It When Decorating is FREE

The topiaries were almost free except for the container. I had the greenery, the twig stems were from the yard, added some moss and there you have it! The coffee filter wreath was made from what else? coffee filters from my kitchen, just added a foam wreath form.

I wanted to add some extra height to my mantel and give it just a tiny bit of a Fall feel. I also didn't want to spend any money. So again out to the yard I went. I found some great little twigs. I just cut them a little and added them to my blue mason jars.
 Some more twigs added to the table around the cloches.

 Totally free and it adds some texture. I like it!

  2. "These re a few of my favorite things...."
    How I love your mantel decorations. I, too, am always looking for things free for my home decorating. You have added such a nice touch with the twigs and oh, they look pretty in your blue canning jars.
    Cloches are the best...I always look for them when I am thrifting.
    I hope you are having a great weekend.
    Blessings,

  6. Pretty and free-great! Where did you find your sheep? I have been looking and looking for a sheep or lamb for my spring mantel for "Lamb of God" and have had absolutely NO luck.

  7. Lovely decorations. I call it "shopping at home" when I use what I have. Much better on the wallet.

  11. I love your mantel and philosophy of using found items to turn into something beautiful, but I too wonder about those beautiful sheep. Could you share a close up pic of them sometime, if you haven't already. I still have to explore more of your blog.
