A Room with a View


This is one of my favorite finds at a garage sale!! Actually my hubby found it...I believe it was $10.00. It's an iron wheel. Very heavy and I hung it on my dining room window/office area. My desk sits underneath it with the laptop and this is where I sit while on the computer! I love this view! It looks out into our backyard which is a sea of English Ivy. It has totaly taken over! We have a huge corner lot so the kids play on the side and front yard or at other kids yards. Sad I know but until we do something about the ivy it's pretty to look at! No mowing either. Anyways...I put vintage postcards of France in the wheel and a fall hanging in the center. It's a pretty architectural element to the room! Always be on the look out for these things at garage/yard sales. Think of the possibilities!
