Think BIG - Focal Points

I brought home a set of
oversize fork and spoon utensils,
and it got me thinking about decorative goods
that really grab your attention when you enter a room.

If you've got the right space for it,
sometimes less is more by decorating
with just one or two large statement pieces,
rather than lots of smaller, busy items.

Sometimes a grouping of small items,
spaced closely together give the
appearance of a large focal point.

Even if you don't have a large
space, that doesn't mean you can't
use a large item for a focal point.

We had this narrow hallway,
that was hard to decorate,
so I just used a large, old wooden door as a focal point.
It works for the space and because
this hallway isn't well-lit,  it stands out more than smaller
things on the wall would have.

Do you have any large,
"HERE I AM" pieces in your home?

It's nice to think BIG!

Blessings,

I can frequently be found visiting these parties.
