Finally, I am posting these photos! I know I promised them weeks ago....anyway here is the cloche vignette in my dining room this year for Christmas!
You saw a tease of these a while back, and I just wasn't happy with everything since I took the antique window and curtains down....I wasn't happy with those, either...so I added my $10 Wisteria Knock-Off wreath and a really cool piece of cast-iron architectural salvage.
The skates were given to me a few years ago and have been in my trunk until I put them under the cloche!
A marble compote holds a bird's nest full of miniature Christmas ornaments. I scattered more ornaments on the plateau it all rests on.
There is the whole vignette, complete with my $10 wreath!
The architectural detail is probably from a widows' walk on an old Victorian home.
The plateau above is the first one I ever bought! I don't think you can have too many!
Merry Christmas! Check back soon for more goodies!!!

I love the cloche vignette! Gorgeous! One cannot have too many cloche(s?) in my opinion. I have the same little "believe" snowman, he is one of my absolute favorites! I love the color of your wall, it's perfect!

So pretty and interesting too. Lots to look at! Love the glittery snowman.
LOVE LOVE your vignette! I have a little birds nest that I added small ornaments to also and it sits on a silver pedestal dish.
I adore the makeover. Bravo! The cast-iron piece is beautiful.

I just love the vignette you have created, the skates are just so gorgeous, what a great idea!
Love the cloches in front of that piece of ironwork, Mikey! What a great look! Those little ice skates are adorable and I've had my eye out for a decent pair myself.
I love cloches! Where did you find one big enough for ice skates? So cool!
those ice skates under glass are to die for!!!
Very festive looking....Kathi
Those are either tiny skates or a giant cloche... I have a vintage pair of black skates but they are not petite.... I am following you! :)
Lovely cloche vignettes.♥
