I felt I needed to change a few things around, so I started with the entrance hall. This is how it has been since we first moved in:
And this is how it looks now, but still needs a little more 'tweaking':
I moved my birds nest from the powder room to go with the bird cage and birds:
I still need to add a bit more green perhaps, and think about putting something 'birdie' in the cage. I also need to play around with the weeping willow, and I literally threw it all the vase and plonked it down! I'd love a couple of vintage suitcases or chests to put under the table, but that won't be happening unless I find them on the side of the road! ;-)
I must thank Miss Mustard Seed for all of her inspiration! She groups things together so perfectly, and every time it works! I still have a lot of learning to do, but that's part of the fun of it!
Suggestions for the birdcage welcome! Balls of green moss? Another nest? A bird? Vintage books?

Gorgeous! Birdcage looks better up on the console. I am drawn to something green like the moss in it. I would also add maybe a small stack of pretty books on the console to add some texture and contrast. A-M xx
I'm sure I've seen some foam balls layered with feathers before that I liked the look of. What about something like that - perhaps a few of them hung inside bird cage with fishing line? Might be right off the mark but it's different... I'd also try and have a few pops of colour on there. Such a lovely hall stand :)
oh yeah, I love the birdcages! I bought one white and black because I couldn't decide on one, I let my friend pick one so I wouldn't have two around! I'm going to paint my gold edge mirror white, have you thought about painting it white too? I'm certain it will look better, but I'm a bit worried it won't! I'll let you know!~
Love what you have done..gorgeous apothecary jar and birdcage...Miss Mustard Seed is one of my favourites too! Books always look fab :) Have fun deciding and playing around XOX
You have got a very welcoming entrance hall and the bird cage looks great on the table. Being a big fan of bird cages myself, I tend to think they look good just about anywhere... :-)
Again, I have to say that I really LOVE your butterfly art. The one with the pages from an atlas is great!
Thank you for your kind words on my blog - you put a big smile on my face!
