Green

CCC

I have always used lots of green in my house, but it works especially well here with the gorgeous tropical garden outdoors. I was working in the garden yesterday and decided to cut a stem for the house. I have five Split Leaf Philodendrons and this is the smallest leaf I could find - many of the leaves are over three feet. They are very dramatic in the garden.

Here are the celadon ginger jars I got at HomeGoods.



I had this saved in my files from Pinterest -  this would be great framed for here.

  3. Love the celadon jars so much, would decorate arond them as a starting point. So many possibilities. Always wanted a “celadon powder room”—with the right chinoiserie wallpaper, those jars and more. It’s really time to move...

    The table is looking nice and put together. I know you’ll always be tweaking but that’s the gift that keeps on giving— the ever fluid scene that reflects your sensibilities of the moment. You know what would be fun? Snapping a photo of the table from the same vantage point every time something changes. Imagine 50 photos in a loop on yor computer like a short film? Time lapse of sorts, fun to look at and remember the set ups.

  4. Love the celadon, can't believe you found those at HG. I went to our local HG recently and there was NOTHING at all to be found.
    Love how your home is coming along, it's looking beautiful.

  5. Fabulous Philodendrons! My gosh, they are just gorgeous. You are so lucky to be surrounded by beautiful, lush vegetation. You're killing me, Beth, with your HG finds - those celadon ginger jars are just to-die-for!

    1. Thanks - the only bad news here is that things fly out the door at HG - if I am thinking about it, I need to grab it.

    1. I ordered a Slim Aarons that is on its way. Then it has to be framed.

  8. The dining table is looking fabulous!
    Have you thought about putting your long Mongolian fur bench at the dining table?

    1. I'll experiment with that, but I do love the bench where it is now.

  9. The table is looking great. I think we are somehow related. I like everything you like particularly white Italian monkeys. Is that pair Vietri?

  10. The table looks great. So clean and modern and fun to switch it up constantly with your latest finds.
    Love bringing tropical leaves in from the garden. One leaf makes such a dramatic impact.

    1. Thanks - I love the table and it doesn't take up a lot of visual space.

    1. If you are talking about the bamboo stool pictured here it was years ago at J.C.Penney.

  13. I love how your home is coming along! Green is gorgeous with blue and white. I learned that lesson unexpectedly when my late husband and I bought our first home outside Toronto. It was an estate sale so it was "as is". It was a lovely 1920's home that had seen better days.The wall to wall wool carpet was very dirty. I wanted to replace it, but the kitchen and bathrooms ate up our budget. So we called in professional cleaners. They saved our budget! Their work revealed a gorgeous celadon high quality carpet.The celadon made the blue and white pop. Our dark brown furniture, mahogany, walnut and oak, looked fabulous. The right shade of celadon is a beautiful neutral.
