Hoot! Hoot! He's So Cute in the Keeping Room

My Hydrangea Morning was productive and the cuttings are drying nicely.

I was so glad to have the hydrangea cut and in containers of water for the drying process

but I also wanted to place some around the house to enjoy while they are drying.

I found the perfect vase for just that
and
hoot-hoot...he's so cute!

You know I love birds, right?

Well,
it

was

love

at

first

sight

when I saw this sweet little owl perched on the branch of this tree trunk vase.

Grouping a vintage tray,

pieces of silver,

a sweet scented candle

and

this charming owl vase

makes

for

the perfect vignette in the keeping room.

Would you like to know where I found this adorable vase?

UncommonGoods!

I had never heard of UncommonGoods prior to them contacting me to preview one of their home decor products.

As much as possible I try to shop local, support local artists and hire local trades people, so I was impressed by the UncommonGoods story...

In a marketplace overrun by mass-produced goods, UncommonGoods was founded on the idea that we would opt to sell as many handmade, unique, and one-of-a-kind items as possible. We love that our customers crave unique and well-crafted merchandise that can't be found at huge retailers who offer deep discounts by buying in bulk. We're also proud that more than half of the items we sell are made in the USA and a large number of items made overseas are supporting communities in developing countries. It’s also important to us to hire locally and we insist on paying our team members a living wage, not just minimum wage. This also means that the person taking your phone call, answering your emails, selecting products for our website, designing our website, and shipping your order lives here in the NYC metro area.

What sets us apart from the larger retailers out there is the quality and uniqueness of the items we sell and the way we treat our customers.

It's nice finding unique pieces for the home and should you choose items made by an individual artist you can learn more about them on their "Maker Stories" page.

This vase is the perfect size for the keeping room table.

UncommonGoods offers gifts, home decor, art, jewelry, kitchen, and the list goes on so when looking for unique decor for your home or the perfect handmade gift for that special someone in your life hop on over and check them out here.

I have my eye on this adorable porcelain blue bird vase...isn't he cute?!

I love how this vignette turned out!

So sweet friend, what have you been up to?
