Spring is almost here! Time to do some cleaning and refreshing of your home after this long dreary winter.

I know I’m not alone on this…. Right?

The best way to get into the Spring mood is to bring the outdoors in with flowers and twigs from your garden. Twigs, you ask? Yes, twigs can be beautiful, and with a bit of imagination and creativity, can add some beautiful texture and rustic quality to a tablescape or mantel vignette.

Take a look at some of the beautiful creations I found while checking out some of my favorite blogs and websites.

How beautiful is this mantel vignette?

These twigs are beautifully displayed in demijohns. Look how wonderfully they work in a grouping!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And as part of this amazing tablescape

How about a craft project using twigs to make a mirror or wreath?

Twigs work wonderfully as a light fixture as well. Check out this beautiful chandelier. Perfect for a woodland or garden themed sunroom

Here are some other fabulous tablescapes using twigs

 

 

Well what if you live in the city and don’t have access to twigs?

Use faux twigs of course!

This is a slippery slope, decorating with faux twigs and flowers. I have seen some really bad fakes. Be sure to choose good quality ones that look like the real thing. It should be very difficult to decipher the real from the fake.

Here is a close up of a faux twig as seen in the picture above from my design studio

This twig comes complete even with the texture of real twigs.

If you are not quite into using real or faux twigs in your home, you can at least get some inspiration from drapery hardware or wall art inspired by the look of twigs.

This piece from Global Views is a favorite of mine. What an amazing focal point this would make above a fireplace!

 

How inspired are you to use some twigs to style some vignettes in your home? I bet you are!

How would you use them? Please leave me a comment below.

Have a Terrific Tuesday!

Be Inspired!
