Shabby Chic in the Family Room

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend!  Yesterday, my hubby and I went Antique Shopping and came across a Dealer that sold Shabby Chic/French Inspired pieces, and at great prices.  I fell in love with this unique looking hutch.  Join me and I will show you how it looks in the Family Room.

I am slowly trying to add a few lighter pieces to my Old World decor for a change.  The hutch is missing a knob, so I will be replacing all the knobs to something different.

The hutch was actually one whole top unit long ago, but the dealer made it into a two piece Hutch.

I accessorized with some spring decor. 

I like the little bird and the feather balls.

I added some pears to the inside of the birdcage.

What could feel more like spring then adding some birds and bunnies?

I added my French book boxes from Ross and a couple topiaries. 

I added a small cloche and placed some more pears inside of it.

I found two garlands at Hobby Lobby last week and dressed up the chandelier.

I added some goodies to the top of the hutch, too!

Do you remember the two French trunks I got last week?  Well they are sitting beside the hutch with a plant and a cute Bistro sign on it.

Here is one last look.

I added the cream colored chalkboard to tie the hutch and mantle together.  

Here is a look at the top of the hutch.

I have to say, the family room looks very cozy now and I am really enjoying the added spring touches.  I also got a cream colored shabby chic dresser that is distressed with a matching mirror and a distressed cream colored trunk for my daughters room.  We got a full over full bunk bed for her last weekend, so hopefully I will get around to sharing that later this week, it's still a work in progress.  Have a great week everyone!  xoxo ~Liz
