Pretty Little Vignettes.

I love a good vignette. Bookshelf vignettes, tabletop vignettes, you name it. I think it's my most collected board on Pinterest. A new ones catches my eye each time I visit the site. There is a perfect balance to creating a well styled vignette; variations in height, mix of textures and colors, and layering. It's really an art.

It took me a long while, playing around with a variety of arrangements for the built-in bookcase in the living room. In fact, I'm still working on it. Recently, I put two Vittsjo shelves in the dining room and I've been busy getting them just right. Let me tell you, it's tough!

Since I'm not quite ready to share my shelves yet, I thought I'd share 10 (ok 12.. I couldn't choose) of my favorite vignettes. Some simple, some relaxed, some more elaborate. I love them all. These are of the best in my eyes so don't expect my own feeble attempt to measure up! :)

    Love this inspiration, especially because I find putting vignettes together so challenging. Off to check out your Pinterest board! :)

    Love them all! Especially since one is mine. :) My fav though is definitely Emily's mantel. That girl can do no wrong in my book!

    The vignettes you've highlighted are beautiful! I can't wait to see your shelves. I've been looking that those from Ikea too for our formal living room!
