window sill decor


I have a signature style of decorating in front of windows. Can you guess what it is by this picture?


If you guessed junk, you'd only be partly right.

 And if you guessed white, colourless, wood or even weird, you're only warm. :)


 Give up?


Anything I put in front of windows is never solid. You can always see through them.



FJI's bedroom

One of my favorite things to do in front of windows is to place something translucent on the sills.


I'm a sunshine lover, so I say, let that sun in at all costs rather than block it!


 Take note of the antique washboard. It fell down one day and the glass broke, so now it provides the perfect framework for this flower vignette with... you got it... very little light blockage.

  Although these last two pics aren't legally a 'window sill', I displayed it as such in my blog office area due to the tall narrow windows. Same theme. Let the sun shine in.

What  are others doing window sill wise? Let's check out Google...


Real Simple

I love elements of nature. This is so simple AND pretty.

Don't you love how the sheers frame the flowers?

I LOVE ivy wreaths! So fresh and pretty in this white kitchen.

Aren't these little lacy plants so delicate?



Hedge Rose

Amazing.


 Elefanitas Alegres

Milk bottles! How... dignified junkified. :)

Now... what if you don't have deep enough window sills to hold things?

Love this built in counter.

And this rustic sofa table. Gorgeous!

And one of my favorites?

~ SNS blah blah linkup rules ~

1. Please link up your intended post, NOT your blog homepage url. (post, then click the title of your post, cut and paste that url)

2. Please put a link in your post that leads back to the party so others can see what's up! (buttons are in the navigation bar along the top)

 3. This party is geared for DIY type projects we can all attempt to make ourselves. Items for sale may be linked up IF your entry is posted on your blog and in tutorial style.

4. For Home Decor and Crafts, Sewing, Cooking, please link projects up that are new to SNS and within 1 month old. The 3rd weekly themed link may have older posts and not brand new to SNS.
