So, I have this sideboard in my hallway.
It's really too big for the space, but it's in sight of the kitchen
and I walk by it a million times a day.
It's my favorite spot to decorate along with my sunroom.
But the sideboard gets totally redone each month.
(slight obsession here)
I've wanted to put together a shelf filled with my tarnished silver
and thought that celebrating the beginning of the New Year
would be perfect "timing".
I realize that it's not the best fit, but it will probably only be here for a few weeks.
I'd love to have a cabinet just for my silver, but as yet I haven't figured that one out.
Please try and ignore the ginormous brass doorbell and ill placed thermostat.
(shhhhh...I'm already planning my Valentine Display)
Here are a few photos and links of some of the posts from last week.
Just some fun photos that deserve a shout out!

never noticed the doorbell or the thermostat until you mentioned them - and then I went back to look for them :). Beautiful display and perfect for the new year.
ReplyDeleteDebra, I so love your style! I love all the silver and the added clock faces. You have such a way of displaying and creating beautiful vignettes. I could spend so much time perusing all your beautifulness! (I know that's not really a word but it sounded good! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year,
Nancy
Everything looks so pretty that I didn't even notice the doorbell and thermostat. Had to go back a few times to even find it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wonderful inspiration!
Hi Debra,
ReplyDeleteWow is all I can say. You always make everything in your home look so pretty and very vintage. Lots of wonderful things to look at.

What a lovely display, Debra! I love the clock faces, too. I've found myself oddly drawn to them in the past few weeks. I must have a project swirling around in my mind and I hope it makes itself known soon!

ReplyDeletehugs~~~ Daphne
The reindeer [fawns] are so very precious as is the birdcage...do I see a small silver wreath on the birdcage?
ReplyDeleteMy Show n Tell Link---where it's kinda fodder for the National Enquirer Tabloids. Do stop by if you can, I'd love your opinion.
Happy New Year
Debra, this is an absolutely gorgeous display and I couldn't even see the "flaws" you said to ignore! Oh...it's just too lovely and all of the goodies are just right together! No flaws, and it's not even too big! I'm gushing and drooling! Truly!!
ReplyDeleteInspired!
Diane

ReplyDeleteLoved your white painting projects for 2010, too...
Happy New Year!
Rene
You have everything displayed so beautifully. I love your silver you have some great looking pieces. I also agree Dore is always doing such wonderful things.
ReplyDeleteDebra,
ReplyDeleteYou have such a magical touch, love the new arrangement!
You are going to get a kick out of this, my little grand was watching a cartoon so I decided to pop in on a few blogs until it was over, yours being one of them. He loves clocks and was so excited to see yours. I was scrolling down until we came to the photo of your Santa. I asked his who that was and after studying the photo he said, "It's God. Yep, that's God."
Have a happy weekend!
Debra
ReplyDeleteThanking you for not only being such a great cheerleader to me on the blog, but most of all for lifting me up in prayer as much as you do. That has been such a blessing to me this year as much as your friendship across the miles. Happy New Year to you and yours. Sending you my love and tons of hugs!!!

Kate
What a wonderful way to enjoy all of your beautiful silver...I think you might be tempted to keep this one for a while, leaving the silver as the anchor and changing it up with other flourishes to fit the season or your current inspiration. Always a delight to visit you here and I wish you a New Year filled with blessings and abundance.
ReplyDelete~jermaine
Hi Debra...your display looks so beautiful I think you should leave it there until Valentines Day!! I love visiting your blog and joining in on Fridays, thank you for being the hostess with the mostess!!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and yours!!!
Thanks for such a great year!Happy New Year~Cheers Kim
ReplyDeleteI love your January display. How perfect! All my Christmas is still up and will be for another few days. I was thinking about what I'll do for Valentines....hadn't even thought about the inbetween. But then I don't have all that silver either like you do. But oh...I wish I did!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty....now I'm going to go back to look. Afraid I'm going to miss out on the link party this week....I'm not organized enough.
I love the silver coffee pot and all the other beautiful items on your shelves. Great job with placement and color. Love your blog. I am a new follower to you. I am a new blogger and would love for you to stop by. Happy New Year.

What a gorgeous combination on that sideboard Debra! It is so inspirational....
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting...

Debra,
ReplyDeleteYour silver display on your white sideboard looks beautiful. I am always drawn to old, detailed silver pieces with lots of patina. I especially like the bird cage. You have so many great old pieces and use them in such clever and creative ways!
Wishing you a happy and healthy year filled with God's blessings.
Deborah
Hi girl,
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of marrying 2 totally different pieces. I think it looks great & I love all your tarnished silver. Thanks for the 2nd looks, all cool. Lisa
PS Your 2 slipcovered chairs in the previous post, positively perfect. I want them!!!
Debra,
ReplyDeleteLove the side table.
What obsession, just great vignettes you create.
Happy new year.

That is just beautiful Debra! Your decor is always so pretty, I love the silver! Your doorbell was hardly noticeable, ours is hideous and one day I couldn't take it any more and I hot glued a picture ove it! yup I really did! It is not on a wall where anything else will fit anyway and so it worked out well! I love all of the inspiration here, I really need to join the party this week. I hope your Christmas was lovely and that 2011 brings many blessings your way! Theresa xoxo
ReplyDeleteHi Debra
ReplyDeleteWhat a great look - love the white bottle brush trees, the silver, well just everything!
Happy New Year my Friend!
Leann
The displays you have created are divine! Love all of the layering, and what flaws? Didn't see a one. Thanks for your gift of friendship. Have a wonderful, fulfilling New Year.
ReplyDeleteThis party is always terrific! Thanks for being a lovely host.
Wow, your entry sideboard looks gorgeous! What a great combination of goodies to put together for a New Year's display. Really, really love the clock faces and the tarnished silver. Totally inspiring me to rethink my January decorating. I always tend to lean towards winter snowmen, and ignore the New Year. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, Debra. I really enjoyed each one.
ReplyDeleteHappy 2011 to you! ~ Sarah
