a little pretty

I got a little gift for a friend. The gift never worked out, yeah for me.



I tried it in a few places - the kitchen, the master bath, on the piano.


It looked great everywhere.


It ended up being a catch-all for remotes.


For some reason, I love the modern remotes sticking out of the footed bowl.
This is it's place - at least for now.

Perfect for little hands to reach in and loose.

Lest you think I have it all together, I will NOT stage this picture. Nothing like taking pictures to notice how much you need to dust. Good thing my blinds were closed - my windows need to be scrubbed!

Hi Laurel :)

I love that bowl! I know what you mean about the dust. With 3 boys and a girl running around we have dirt everywhere, which is why there are no pictures inside the house from this weekend LOL

What a unique and cool bowl! We're always looking for creative ways to hide or disguise the remotes. Someone should start making cool remote covers.

It is a wonderful place for the remotes. It is a beautiful bowl. You can do a lot with. Like filling it with mini pumpkins for the fall. Thanks for sharing. Connie

I love the footed bowl with the scalloped edge - so classic with just a little bit of fun flair.

That looks great! I think I would like one of those for each room.

I recognize that bowl! Thank you for letting us visit and cooking us food. And for sending the cell phone and back pack. We had such a nice time!

Color can be kida scary. Might I suggest starting with a shutter maybe. That way you can just move it around till you feel good about it's spot. YOu dont even have to hang it up . You can just go lazy like me and lean it up against the wall. Now thats some decorating...hehe~

Your daughter is adorable and I love the bowl - perfect for the remote! :)

Jen said...

Lovely bowl - do the remotes actually stay in it? Ours wander all over the place (and I have a feeling so would the bowl!)

Ashley @ AshleysBusy said...

I do this too, move something around a zillion times till I find the perfect spot fir it :)
