Mod Mix Monday #184

What do you think about the dark dining room off of a light living room?

I usually like one room to flow into another. But I like this dark room just beyond too.

There are lots of things I love in these rooms and many things I do not

and yet...it all works. Lots of interesting ideas.

Things I love -

that sofa

the brass table

the dining table

that light fixture in the dining room

the dark paint

the radiator
little pots of succulents

the hexagon mirrors on the ceiling in the dining room

Things I don't like so much -

those dining chairs

that brass table

the indian rug

the cow hide rug in the dining room

the big floor lamp

But mix it all together and I really like it all together.

Well, these are just my thoughts today...

here are my favorites from last week's Mod Mix Monday.

 Victoria of Trois Petites Filles hit it out of the park with this new way to display fresh flowers. 

Frame me Pretty!

 Kim of Reposhture Studio shared how to make transfer printed pillows.

Love this Easter Rabbit one.

 Jamie of So Much Better with Age shares all the T on her new french vintage kitchen.

 Very cute tiered Easter display at Priscillas.

 Just look at this stunner at Iris Abbey. My Oh My she's a beaut!

Butterfly and Bungalow shared more of her landscape. Just look at those raised beds!

I love the St. Francis bird feeder too.

Mod Mix Monday #175

 So I skipped Mod Mix Monday for a couple of weeks and I'm picking it up where I left off.

It's time to get busy decorating for Christmas. 

I am so inspired by that photo above... it's all so pretty...but

notice the urn full of balls inside the fireplace!

Isn't that a great idea?

Angie found this wonderful tin bucket on wheels and immediately knew it was 

the perfect container for a little Christmas tree on her patio. 

I love that she filled the base with apples and nuts! 

 Ms. Bingles has started up this year's Christmas tree shop.

She makes the most amazing Christmas trees from vintage odds and ends and then 

auctions them off on Ebay. This is just one of many.

 Diane of Adirondack Girl @ Heart made these cute little Christmas tags from an old wood skirt. 

She shares how she made them on her blog.

Priscilla of Priscilla's put together this super festive Christmas Mantel.

Kathleen aka Charm Bracelet Diva took and ordinary little dining chair 

and turned it into something special with a slip cover  

Jody of Southern Seazons put together this pretty centerpiece for Thanksgiving. 

 Christine of Little Brags always has something great going on - on her front porch

and Thanksgiving was no different. Her pretty bunny always enjoys the decor.

Marianne of Macca shared this wonderful old shabby fountain.

It's charming!
