before i changed the direction of my shop towards chocolate only, i had the idea of a wine/coffee bar, offering only treats and of course the wine and coffee. viva terra was a catalog i perused often for their accessories. slate chalk board serving platters, where you can plunk chunks of cheese down, write in chalk the descriptions of what's being served, things like that. i love things like that.
i've always loved these quartz candle holders. they must sparkle beyond words with dimly lit spaces and gobs of these sprinkled around a dining table or around a sitting area. love.
reincarnated indian beer bottle candleholders. shiny and unique. a large cluster of them on a dining table would be a fun centerpiece for a fall dinner.
recycled jewel-toned vessels. wonderfully soft matted fall colors, but the bright jewel tones add pizzaz.
recycled earthstone balloon ball vases. i am drawn to these earthy fall colors at the moment. plus i love the sheen of the glass.
perching bird bark rings. rustic charm addition.
vibrant collage pouf.
pillows from scrap sari wraps. great color additions.
take a gander over to viva terra, these little beauties i've featured are only a tiny portion of their great finds. interesting entertaining accessories and ideas. who knows, if i ever progress towards that wine/coffee parlour, i'll be back to flipping through their pages again and putting together spaces in my head. so fun! enjoy :)
