I love jars and I use them in every possible way on my shelves, in every room of our house. ALso, one of my favorite ways to style a shelf is to pile books and place one or two accents on top like perfume bottles, picture frame, candle holder, and fresh flowers of course! i try to incorporate what I love from interior design magazines to my own styling :) Green Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18309473265741405080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6492363525800683157.post-9050200747413596262013-04-04T17:24:49.228-04:002013-04-04T17:24:49.228-04:00Visiting from Brenda's Cozy Little House party...Visiting from Brenda's Cozy Little House party.
