After I had taken down the Christmas decorations, the table was just hanging out with the lamps all by themselves so I added the runner and the rest of the accessories to jazz it up a little bit.
The glass jars were a clearance item at Joann's for $0.97 each and the floral stems were on sale too. I cut up one branch to use in all three jars.
Then I added the vintage books under the lamps to finish off the top of the table. I like it to be simple and not all cluttered.
On the bottom shelf I kept the stack of books and added an old antique hook to the top of the pile. Then I just put an old crock and a set of Ikea baskets on either side of the books. Ignore the cords. Eventually I will get around to taping those so they don't show.
Here's a close up of the hook. It came from our old house. It was just hanging in the back of a closet all willy-nilly so I re-appropriated it for more decorative uses. Eventually I think I will use it as a wreath hanger in our bedroom. Until then it just floats around looking lovely wherever I put it.
Has anyone else added anything springy to their decor yet? It seems a little early up here in Chicagoland but then I read on Jane's blog that they are planting their veggie beds already - so jealous.
