Favorite 5 Friday: Home Pieces

One of my favorite pastimes is browsing Etsy. It's not only a wonderful way to find a fabulous gift or to get inspiration, but also to mingle with like-minded individuals.I will be promoting (blog, Etsy, Twitter) my "Favorite 5" every Friday, so contact me if you would like me to check out your items. Tell me what you think about these items or share some of your favorites...Find something you want, just click on the name. Please take time to visit these shops to see all their awesome items.

I have been contemplating new decorations. My home is very rustic, with primitive cabin decor. Inside is knotted pine, high ceiling with large beams, and Australian Cypress floors. I have several barn wood cabinets, quilts, and old metal pieces. My colors are mostly barn red, black, olive green that look great, but I'm tired of them. I would love to go more shabby chic with some bright colorful pieces, but I'm not sure if they would look good with the knotted pine walls. This weeks finds pieces that I would like to have for my home.

This wonderful Canterbury cabinet is nice to add a lovely pop of color.

Here are a pic in my home, this is in my living room going up to the loft, you get the general idea of decor. Please tell me what colors you think would look good.

  1. With the stairs and pottery, it looks like you already have the red accents going on. I'd avoid a green that would make it look to Christmas-y. The white table with red accents would look nice.

  3. I think if you replaced some of your red pieces with light blues or greens it would make the biggest difference. Be sure to share pictures of what you end up doing!

  6. Definitely the top one! It looks like it would be perfect for that space and it would add a great pop of color. Plus I just love the cabinet. That's my 2 cents...
