What’s On Your Wall Wednesday – Eclectic Wall Grouping

What’s On Your Walls Wednesday is hosted by Barb at Grits and Glamour.

I like to display a mix of various items on the wall. Here is a grouping from my guest bedroom in 2007. It includes a decorative wall shelf, porcelain plates and plaques and a mirror.


The disparate but harmonious (I think) items in my grouping include:
A round mirror in a narrow wood frame in white with gold,

A European porcelain plaque in a lovely wood frame with wire mat,

A Bavarian plate with roses and gilt embellishments,

A wall shelf with a Lenox porcelain plate from the Nativity Vignette series. Just in front is a small porcelain plaque on a stand

What makes this grouping work is that the items have similar colors, similar elegant design details, and similar quality.
You will enjoy the wall display treasures at Barb’s blog. So do head over there to join in the fun, and thank you very much for stopping here at Oak rise Cottage.
