I love when things come together!!

If you visit my blog often, you know I always have a little story....so here we go.

While going through things to get ready for our yard sale tomorrow I thought about this little "dry sink" that my husband bought me years ago. I no longer had used it. I put it together...shined it up for the sale, and then said, Nope, I can't get rid of this. Although not a great piece of furniture, I remember the excitement of receiving it when new purchases were few and far between!

Ok, what should I do with it? The bowl and pitcher are blue and I have NO blue in my home. I set it up in my bedroom and then it hit me. I had purchased a bowl at Kirkland probably 2 years ago on clearance. It was large. Do you think it will fit?

TA DA!!! perfectly!!!

I took my silver tea pot and put it on the bottom with greens. I am in love. I am sooo glad I decided to keep it.


Do you agree???

Oh! I am loving it! Can't believe that bowl fit. What a difference changing the bowl made.
Now all you need is candles. Is that in a corner of your bedroom?
