Here it is. This is a HUGE sign and I thought it would be great in this room.
Here you go now you can get a better idea of how it looks in the room. I think it is perfect
for filling up that huge space above the bookcase. This is looking in from the front door.
For those of you who are new around here this is my living room that is kind of a sitting room/library that I am slowly adding vintage worn books to and it is filled with hunt scenes, silver, and transferware. Kind of an English country style going on in here.
Here are a few of my crusty worn leather bound books that I have and am hunting for more.
Here is one of my new bookends I just found last weekend at a home decor shop. I have been searching for the perfect ones and I love these.
Other side.
Transferware platter from ebay called Myott's Country Life.
This is still my favorite silver find.
I have moved things around on these shelves. I found this old yarn spool at Scott Antique Market a couple of months ago and it works great to hold this vintage riding hat. The bronze dog was a flea market find a while back.
I brought my silver champagne bucket back in here from the foyer and moved my chalkware collie over to this end table. Both found at the antique mall last year.
Next I will show you what my children surprised me with this year.
What did you get? I would love to know.
Have a super week!
KIM

Mr.Savvy has the MOST WONDERFUL taste in the world *wink*...and how lucky that he was thoughtful enough to order this just for you for Mother's Day *wink wink*. Tell him all the girls in blogland think he is just wonderful- that will take the sting out of whatever he paid for it!;>) Diana
ReplyDeleteKim I have spied that sign for years. Ballard also carried it for a while. I LOVE IT! Could not be more perfect in that room. Enjoy, and I hope you had a great day!
ReplyDeleteHe is a sweetie. I am so glad you polished that champagne bucket, looks great.
ReplyDeleteI saw one of these signs in a Country Sampler mag and would love to have my husband make one for me.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great on that shelf with all of those other hunting/horse accessories you've got.
Kim it is absolutely perfect!
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful gift and fills the space wonderfully! I always enjoy when you take us on a tour through your rooms :)
Don't you wonder who owned such a beautiful piece of silver and so lovely monogramed? How does a piece like that not stay in the family? Happy it found is way to you, for you to love it!
Take care & Hugs,
Wendy
Ha! Some of the best gifts I got from my hubby, I bought for myself, too, Kim! I can't complain, he's getting pretty good. I got a Michael's gift card.
ReplyDeleteGreat sign and it looks perfect above your bookcase!
Love the sign, Kim. I love all things Ethan Allen. It is my favorite furniture. All the maple is my house is vintage Ethan Allen. Love all the horse "country" life things, too.
ReplyDeleteYour new sign looks fantastic in your front room! I love the silver, as well!
ReplyDeleteYou have a wonderful collection of accessories - love your crusty books, too!
ReplyDeleteThe sign looks great! It fills that space very nicely and it's way cool!
ReplyDeleteLove it.
Love the leather books too. I would love to add more around my house too, but they can be so expeeensive!

Rhonda, the most I have paid was $15 for the huge one on the left. I lucked up and got the three law books for $19 on ebay and free shipping!
ReplyDeleteGreat gift, Mr. Savvy! The sign is perfect for that space. Kim, I would never tire of seeing the details of this room. It is one of my favorites! ~ sarah
ReplyDeleteKim my friend Jen the decorator works at Ethan Allen and I went to see her the other day and saw that sign and gasped...I too loved it! Spent the day with my mom and brothers family watching the Nephew's baseball game...my dil Melanie brought me her gift to me a box of Macarons that she MADE...they were just as good as the ones from Paris at Laudree...and that is saying something! Annie sent me tulips, my favorite.....oh and Sushi had no mistakes today...it was a great day! BTW that silver pitcher is so cool, I don't think I have ever seen such a beautiful one, lucky you!
ReplyDeleteYour sign is just perfect for that spot. Makes your den look complete.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness - LOVE your sign!! It looks just perfect in that spot! I scored an awesome sign this weekend too - check out my latest post. I just love that our rooms are really never finished! Happy Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteCouldn't be more perfect!

Sweet Up-North Mornings...
I love the new sign in that room. I love that room anyway. I got something for mother's day that I have been asking for for years - a kitchen aid mixer.
ReplyDeleteOh Kim it is perfect! And I hope you watched the Kentucky Derby in your wonderfully outfitted equestrian room, I love it!
ReplyDeleteI got all sorts of wonderful things, including a gift certificate to a favorite store and a yummy dinner, so it was a great Mother's Day!
Kat :)
That sign was MADE for this room!
ReplyDeleteI also love the monoogram. Wouldn't it be cool to find out the history of it...
Have a pretty day!
Kristin

ReplyDeleteLooks like he "picked out" the perfect persent!
ReplyDelete- The Tablescaper
Oh Kim, I got the most adorable apron with my grands hand prints or foot prints on it. Looks like a flower garden with bees, butterflies and lady bugs! Terrific!
ReplyDeleteKIM!!!! Girlfriend! It's gorgeous!!! Mr. Savvy sure does have good taste! wink wink!!! Happy Mother's day mama!!!
ReplyDeleteI love your new sign, Kim! It looks perfect in your sitting room! I had a wonderful day...I received a gift certificate to the garden store, a new oriole feeder, a DVD of The Holiday...and best of all... a great dinner in the porch with all my children!
ReplyDeleteWow...perfect fit! Looks amazing Kim. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! Love the sign and all your silver pieces!
ReplyDeleteWhat a super-cool gift!!! :D My Mother's Day present was small *giggles*
ReplyDeleteLove your sign. We also have the same gift policy around here:) My husband picked out a new quilt from PB. My kids gave me paper flowers they made at school - really wonderful to get their art and see how proud they are of their gifts.
ReplyDeleteYou are right...it looks just perfect in that space.
ReplyDeleteGood job!!
Always happy to visit a room that gorgeous! The sign is perfect. Your husband uses a good "personal shopper."
ReplyDeleteBest,
Susan
Love that! I've seen this very piece somewhere and it has never left my mind. Didn't know it was Ethan Allen. I too have a room like this but not enough space for the sign. Love the masculine tone of your room.
ReplyDeleteMy hubby told me to get a pedi this week. Is that a lazy man's way out or what? But I'll take it!
Perfect! I've seen that sign as well and loved it:)
ReplyDeleteI have always loved that sign...so glad you were able to get it! Thanks to Mr. Savvy...lol
ReplyDeleteKim that sign is perfect! I love it especially because it says Murphy! What a wonderful gift from the Mister! I got a new ipod! I walk at night with it and just play it all the time in the house. My first one was misplaced. I actually think it was taken at the car dealership, but who knows. I love it and needed it! We are a dancing family! Can't wait to see what your kids got you!
ReplyDeleteMr. Savvy has such great taste! He just knew that sign would be perfect and it is! ;)
ReplyDeleteLet's see...yesterday I bought new clothes for my college aged daughter, who is not a mother and had better not be one anytime soon! So, she got the gift and I got the bill.
Mr M&M took me out for Mexican food and bought me a jumbo margarita. So, I also got a hangover!
Hmmm, hoping for better luck next year!
The silver pitcher belonged to me.. I lost it.. please send it back...
ReplyDeleteoh ya and I love your sign and maybe ordering one so we can be twins!
It's just perfect for that space!!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Susan and Bentley
xxoo
Perfect addition Kim, it really accents the space.
ReplyDeleteJust love everything about everything in your room and yes you are right about that sign being perfect too.
ReplyDeleteIt's so perfect! What a great room - I love everything you have done with it!
ReplyDeleteHi Kimmie! I never tire of seeing your living room! That sign is awesome! Looks so perfect in your lovely room.
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Kim, You have such a great sense of style. The sign is great. I love English country style.
ReplyDeleteKim, your new sign is fabulous, what a great find. It is perfect in that spot. I also love your bookends. Your LR is so pretty and everything is coming together perfectly. I love it all and I totally love the English/Hunt theme. Thanks so much for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteI spied this from a thumbnail at Kara's. Of course it would turn out to be yours! Everything you fill your home with seems to be "just right" like it was meant to be there. It's perfect!
ReplyDeleteI think this is probably my favorite room in your pretty home. I love the hunt scene theme and that velvet riding helmet and the silver champagne bucket.
ReplyDeleteBig TX Hugs,
Stephanie

You have a GORGEOUS home!!

Hi Kim, I wanted to come back and say thank you for sharing your wonderful new sign at my party. I love it!
ReplyDeletexo,

Kim, the sign is just wonderful! Your home is beautiful, too. It reminds me so much of my friend's home - she was Cottage Of The Month in January 2009 at The Old Painted Cottage Blog.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! Oh, love the old crusty books, too. I have a few myself and love the feel of them.
:) Becky
