Naturally Adorned


This is the vignette on the coffee table in the great room. I used the vintage style tool box that I bought a few months ago and filled it with the pine cones I ordered, some webbing I had on hand, a candle, and antlers thrown in, of course. All this sets on top of a vintage grain sack and some sprigs of Leland cypress greenery from the yard.














Sorry about the picture overload, but I had too much fun practicing my photography with this.

All this was thrown together just using what I had except a couple of large pine cones.
