This beauty is one of my all-time favorite vignettes, and a long-time resident of my inspiration folder. It’s a simple symmetric vignette, but the simplicity is part of the beauty in my opinion. When every item is perfection, a simple vignette will only look well edited, right? Apart from the obvious (greek key console and gray zebra ottoman) it’s the wonderful color combination of the cobalt blue artwork and the apple green lamps that sucks me in. I’m going to create a few new vignettes in my home, so I surfed the interwebs trying to find a few pieces that would create the same appeal (while costing as little as possible of course). Here’s what I ended up with:
*
GREEN CERAMIC LAMPS / OCEAN ART PRINT / CONSOLE TABLE / ZEBRA OTTOMAN / CLAM SHELL
Total price: $792.
I’m totally crushing on that ocean art print! I think it will be mine ;-)
I also made two discoveries today, namely that a greek key console table like the one Ashely used in her vignette, would cost more than twice as much ($1775 to be exact) as the entire vignette I slapped together. The other thing I discovered is that it’s impossible to get a hold of an ottoman upholstered in gray zebra fabric.
Also, I wish we could refer to more than one ottoman as ottomen… Enjoy the rest of your day! xox Linda

I love that vignette too! Too bad the grey zebra is so hard to track down, I would love to incorporate it into my home.

Lol, ottomen! The grey zebra print is gorgeous, but still love the black and white zebra versions you’ve included.

I’m with you on the ottomen. Following up on your recent comment on my blog you know which of the top two vignettes I would like. Hint: not the one where the art work is covered! Thanks for you substantial response. I was beginning to think I was out there all alone.

hehe on the ottomen. :) I love the look of two tucked under a console like you have here – it looks great when stored and yet is also practical for guests…love this combo – very savvy!
