Great Room Refresh Using Blues,Greens and Ironstone

Spring is a time of renewal outside and that means a time to refresh inside. Of course I refresh things often 😉. This spring I have refreshed the great room by changing the accessories and incorporating soft blues and greens. When I return home after visiting my mom in rehab this lighter look is very calming.

Great Room Refresh Using Blues, Greens and Ironstone

A few weeks ago I shared the spring mantel here and then I finally updated the rest of the room.

The shelves had been styled the same for quite some time so I thought what could I do differently? So I cleared the shelves and started adding some of my ironstone collection. Then I added in some books and greenery. The blue books with the greenery continue the blue and green look.

Oh, and flowers. There must be flowers. I tucked these in this vintage enamelware pitcher and placed it on a wooden bowl turned upside down.

I tucked a little plant in the ironstone gravy boat.

I removed all the stacks of books that were on the coffee table before and created this vignette with a basket. 

When I first started blogging eight years ago I decorated with a lot of cloches and then that phase went away. Now, I'm seeing cloches returning in home decor again and I picked up this one at Pottery Barn. I filled it with a couple of silver trophies, feathers, an old fern print.

The only other new items are three new pillow covers in soft blues and greens. I combined them with the textured tan colored pillows I had on hand.

Birds and flowers always say spring.

I pulled out this pillow cover that I used last year, too and placed it on the soft green chair.

This blue and ivory pillow has been used in the guest bedrooms and now it resides on the leather chair. Well, until you know who sits in his chair.

I am keeping this ivy plant here since it is doing so well.

More blue and white pillows and greenery on this side.

Spring has certainly sprung around here. The temps have warmed up nicely and the pollen is in full force. 

Have a fabulous week!
