A Junky Vignette

Hello all!  How do you like my post title?  I thought it was pretty catchy.  I figured that I would whip together a quick post today after I saw that Funky Junk Interiors was having Junk Vignette Day, which was a challenge to put together a quick junking vignette and then link it up.  I was up for it and figured a good starting point was right outside my front door where this old shutter, pedestal, and basket reside.  I gathered a few other items from around my house and this is what I came up with. 


Then...I thought it would look cute if I stuck an apple in the hydrangeas.


Yes...I like it.
What else would look good? 
Hmmm....how about some old gardening tools or a little pot? 
That might jazz it up a bit.


And there you go...my super quick junky vignette.  I think it has a fall flavor to it so that's an added bonus.

On a separate note, I hope to put up another post later this week about my bedroom...we'll see how it goes.  Best wishes :)

    P.S. Thanks for your sweet comment. Yes... the flowers and rosemary in my post are from my garden. The rose is called French Vanilla from David Austin... one of my favorites. :)

About the little stitching around the edge of my photos...it's actually a little simple photo template that my mister created for me to use. I thought they really nice since i love to stitch!
