The Painted Armoire

Decorating with old books is my favorite way of displaying things. Found this very shabby chic pitcher last weekend, here I've rised the pitcher with some old books and leaned others to the side. Note the books all have the same colour tone.

Can you believe I got this beauty at an auction for $2.00 she has a few flea bites but I love her.         Try not to cram to many things on one shelf,  leave some space so your eye can focus on one item at a time.

Stacked antique suitcases houses all my christmas decor.
