When not in use, I keep my extra greenery in an old school locker out in the studio. |
I try to keep the ferns, ivy, etc together, but if I can't ......that's alright! |
A vintage trunk sits below my faux greenery and holds floral garlands and swags when they're not in the house in use. |
When I make a wreath, I normally take it apart after I;m done with it and put the greenery back in the locker. It is so hard to store wreaths and I enjoy making them fresh each time I need one. |
I use greenery in my centerpieces......... |
I decorated a vintage wicker settee with faux greenery one year to set on the front porch....... |
Here's a chicken feeder that I filled with faux greenery one year to make a centerpiece for the farm table on the front porch. |
I used lots of faux greenery in my fairy gardens....... |
I filled this china cabinet with geraniums and faux ferns a few years ago. |
This is my most recent use of faux greenery. So, as you can see, I use it all the time!. |
In the corner of the studio where I store my faux greenery, I have a couple of my grandmothers quilts displayed. |
Across from the greenery locker is a white cabinet that I store lace and trims in. You can see a couple of bunnies in the mirror next to the cabinet. |
This bunnies are in the side of the studio where I store all the Easter decor that I decorate with in the spring. |
Here's a closer look at my fairy garden supplies. |
Penny,
ReplyDeleteI envy all your storage!! You are definitely in Spring mode!! We have had warm temps. here but in NEPA, Winter is far from over as we just had 6 inches of snow melt with the warm temps....Love all your greenery and all the inspiration on what to do with it....
You have some amazing storage, and very decorative in and of itself! Would love to have a studio myself! ;-) Thanks for sharing at Homestyle Gathering, Penny!
ReplyDeletePenny, I am always amazed at how many ideas you come up with even for storage. I love the idea of old school lockers. I wished I had thought of that as I just missed an opportunity of bunches of lockers as a store was getting rid of employee lockers. Now I will keep my eyes peeled for them. I do love your greenery as you have a good eye for the real looking greenery. I don't like the plastic fake stuff. I do have a lot of real plants, but can't have them where my cat can eat them. I have a cat that tries out everything. He didn't like this little tree with the shiny discs all over it. Well, he jumped upon the furniture and sat next to the tree, pulled them off then dropped them on the floor. So your faux plants are great idea for people with animals.
ReplyDeleteI love your studio where you can organize your ideas. Thank Mr. H for his incredible support.

I loved looking at your fantastic storage; then you said you used a Christmas tree to store you florals on. Be still my foolish heart! I want one! I have a longtime friend who gave me a 4 sided (4 panels) styrofoam block that I have stuck picks in; I jokingly told her I would never forgive her for giving it to me as it is FULL and has become a nuisance (She laughed because that's why she passed it on!)! As I have not followed you long enough, I need to find more of your fairy garden blogs; I am a miniature fan.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh - love your studio and all the wonderful things you do with your faux greenery! Beautiful! x Karen
ReplyDeleteLove it all and am newly subscribed to your blog. I love the Fairy Grandma's. Do you sell them or where can they be purchased? I would also like to have a studio like yours. It's so bright and happy.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
OOOOOO this is my favorite post yet. The pictures are fabulous. SPRING
ReplyDeleteI love floral and greens. I have been storing them in bushel baskets and I move them around but I see I need to store them vertically. I am inspired! Happy Valentine's Day, Kippi #kippiathome
