My mantel

It is another rainy day in sunny Tx and instead of taking a picture of the bleak landscape outside I chose this. The painting was bought from a dear friend and the small, pink pot next to the candlesticks is by me.
Rest are gift or knick knacks from store sales and garage sales.

I like the center piece too! It seems you have a lot of artistic pieces in your house.. I remember seeing some - in one other photo where you were picturing yourself. :)

Love the painting! You've given me an idea for one of my future shots but I need to declutter my mantel first.

Thank you girls. The b&w piece is a plate I found at a discount store for $3, I think.

Sra, my pot is not painted but burnished and fired in a sagar with saw dust and other organic stuff. The black and white tones on the red clay are the effects of oxygen depletion.
