Remember that old Sesame Street song, "One of these things is not like the other"?Well all these knic-knacs ARE like the other, and I never really knew what to do with them display wise as they disn't really mesh with my colours.
Well duh, turns out the decor mags are right: group similar items together - who would have thought eh?
The pointy orange blown glass vase still has a Made in Canada sticker on it - I found it for $10 at a thrift shop.
The Star Trek looking decanter was a gift from my best pal Denise - it came with 6 shot glasses and once belonged to her parents.
She also brought me the flat green dish to the far right - from Venice, Italy.
The candlesticks were new. I put navy candles in them for a bit of cheek.
Next time you're unsure of how to group oddball elements that don't necessarily go with your overall look, look for similarities - it could be colour, style or something more thematic - and group 'em en masse; create your own collection!
