I got that awesome shelf a couple of weeks ago. Let me refresh your memory. Here it is. It is big (22 inches high by 45 wide). I needed some serious wall space for it. I was determined to find a spot for it.
I decided to move some wall art around in my family room and Tom and I hung the shelf.
I love this shelf. I loaded it up with some vintage pottery for now. I am sure I will be futzing with the display for awhile.
I got some larger vintage cotton birds at a sale recently and decided they should perch here.
Did I mention I love this shelf? It was definitely $10 well spent.
Another collection well displayed. I love the touch with the bird. Sheryl

Knew you would find the perfect spot for that shelf! Looks good with your pottery display and birds. I can see you "futzing" around with it too...$10 well spent for something you love!
Thanks for sharing.

I've been anxiously awaiting this post to see where the "special" shelf ended up. It's fabulous. The decorating possibilities are endless.

So many of the things you find seem as though they were made just for you! Your little birdies are the perfect Ethel touch as well.

Love the birds on your "special shelf". I think maybe a bird collection would be a nice touch. The shelf really has great colors.

I think it's one of my favorite things that you've found! The pottery looks gorgeous on it, but really the possibilities are endless, and I can totally picture holiday decorations up there too. Yes, it's awesome and it's FUN!

The size of that cute shelf is bigger than I imagined. I see why you love it and can see so many displays on it in the future.
