Botanical Prints in the Hearth Room

Hi Friends, I hope you're having a good weekend, I just wanted to share a quick post about some little vintage Botanical prints I just got around to hanging this week. I've been thinking about what to do with them for months. I finally decided I could make a commitment, so I jumped on in and had Hubby grab the hammer.

It's taking me a while to commit to hanging more wall art and prints here at the new house. We repaired many, and painted all of the walls during the renovation and I just haven't been in a hurry to put holes in them. Least of all make holes in this 50+ year old wood paneling that's not in the best of condition. I have to think long and hard before anything goes up on the wall.

(if you look closely under the Farmtable you will see a large dark fuzzball,

that would be Miss Wrigley, our Maine Coon kitty girl. 

She's claimed this as her territory, while the other one has the Dining Room table)

I've mentioned before that I have an abundance of small vintage prints... actually, to put it mildly I have a teensy obsession with them. I found this set of Botanicals many years ago, and had them in the Entry of our (2 houses) ago on either side of the hallway. The larger one is probably an orphan print that seems to sort of match the other four. These are probably from the late 60's, and the muted tones of gold and taupe painted frames are perfect for these little bits of wall that are on either side of the opening to the Garden Room.

I'm good at "eyeballing" art placement, but when it comes to more than one piece at a time,

I have to get another set of eyes and hands. Then step back and think about it.

As you can see from the background, I'm bringing in a little of what I call "Fall Lite". I like to add Fall in a little at a time. Late August is all about Sunflowers and some dried flowers, grasses, berries and branches. I'm excited about being a part of a Blog Hop the Tuesday after Labor Day so I'm in the beginning stage of gearing up for that. (a few small white pumpkins somehow have sneaked on to the mantel. and a few on the table. Not sure how they got there...?)

Please come join in with our new Link Party on Monday evenings at 6:00 Central.

We'd love to have you share all the inspiration from your place!
