Today while leisurely (hahahahaha) shopping with the kids at Walmart, I spotted this gorgeous chocolate brown and aqua blue damask ribbon for $2. I searched for more so I could buy it all up, but sadly this was the only roll. On a happy note, it was the only roll and I found it! There was just enough on the spool to wrap both my lamps and tie a cute little bow.
I love adding splashes of this beautiful blue against my chocolate walls...such a nice compliment.
I know that I have professed my love for ribbon over and over and over. But seriously, it is so versatile. One of the most inexpensive ways to dress up an area that needs a little extra punch!
The new ribbon is beautiful! And I love how the blue in the ribbon is carried over to those gorgeous turquoise blue plates too! Love it!

I ♥ the turquoise plates...they're fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteI need you to come decorate my house. Looks great!
ReplyDeleteThe ribbon is perfect! The tablescape is just gorgeous too!
ReplyDeleteThat was a very nice touch and I love those little blue plates.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally looking for an excuse to got to Wal-Mart so I can search for this ribbon!
ReplyDeleteI love that color combination. And you're right...those lamps look great w/that ribbon!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful ribbon, Amanda! I love your tabletop vignette! The blue plates really "pop".
ReplyDeleteWhat a good idea! I never would have thought of that. Very pretty! Love the ribbon - gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI could hit myself.... I had that exact same ribbon in my hand at Walmart.. they even had pink and brown... but stupid me! I put it back. I don't even know if its there anymore. I don't have anything AQUA.. yet! LOVE WHAT YOU DID AMANDA.. VERY PRETTY! JGG
ReplyDeletelove it! you have me wanting to go tie a ribbon on my lamp!
ReplyDeleteLove it! What would you recomend for thinner ribbon. I have about 1569 million spools ar home of leftover wedding ribbon & am at a loss as to what to do w/ it all :-/ Any suggestions?
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous! I also have a ribbon addiction... I need to go find this ribbon at my Walmart!
ReplyDeleteWow that is just gorgeous! I love chocolate and blue together. I have nothing blue in my house so I may have to pretend it matches so I can use it :) Also love your 'prays together' plaque/frame. Would love a close up of it and whether you made or bought it?
ReplyDeleteCan you even believe what that did to that whole setting. That little ribbon added soooo much.
ReplyDeleteWhat a find! Love it!

Girl, you have awesome ribbon skills. Seriously!
ReplyDeleteAnd that ribbon is Absolutely Amanda. I never see aqua any more without thinking of you!
Perfect color for you! Those plates are beautiful too. All of it shows up so well against your brown wall. The baby in the frame is precious too!

ReplyDeleteThat ribbon is gorgeous! Good for Walmart!
ReplyDeleteThat's impressive. Who would have thought, well I guess you did. Hello. I may give this a try with one of my lamps. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteYour table decorations look beautiful.
Love the new ribbon and the turquoise plates--they set each other off so perfectly. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I could never get by with bows on my lamps in my house...so happy I can lurk at yours:)
ReplyDeleteThat added just the perfect touch!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I love that you can see something intended for one thing and use it so effectively for something else. www.satisfiedsole.com
ReplyDeleteOh I just love ribbon. I spent over $10 last week on ribbon at Michaels. Why? Oh just bc it was on clearance and each spool had polka dots. Dumbo that I am. And, if I had been at Walmart and saw that ribbon before you had, it would be in my home. :) So glad you spotted it first though.
ReplyDeleteWow it really just pulled everything together just beautifully!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it!!!!
ReplyDeleteI bought some of that same ribbon and I just can't wait to use it. Gorg!
ReplyDeletewe are moving in a few months. I just started following your site and you have given me so many great decor ideas! Thanks!
ReplyDeletecrap, now i have to go back to wal-mart! If I find some more of this prettyness-I will send you some.
ReplyDeleteI love that Amanda. Beautiful. I am sure my Walmart will be out of it, but good for you for finding it!!! Your home is beautiful!!

You are so good at crating vignettes. Everytime I see your pictures I think it is from a magazine. You really have an eye for it.
