THE NEW BALLS IN A BOWL

{ Image via The Glitter Guide, Home Tour of Krystal from This Time Tomorrow }

It has seemed that for years the go to decorative accent has always been a bowl of some form filled with balls or orbs of some form or another.  "I just don't know what to put here!?"  well the answer usually ended up a bowl full of balls.  I know I'm guilty of it.  Well now I think the Bell Jar or Cloche is quickly taking it's place.  Thank goodness... it's time for a change right?  The beauty of the bell jar is that you can put anything under them & it instantly gives the item enclosed importance.  I recently found one in our crawl space.  An big, old, heavy glass one & I am dying to use it somewhere.  I'm thinking it is going to live in our hutch once it is built.  I know you guys think I'm lying when I say "I recently found this ______ in my attic" but seriously, I really do find these things!  I bet you would too... You just have to be willing to dig!

How great to display your children's toys... Love this idea for a boy's room.

*** UPDATE 1 DAY LATER *** 

I had a bell jar.  This is what I get for writing a post about it.  I am so upset!
