{Before and After} Shelf Styling in Our Family Room

As we all know, a house is never done. There are accessories to move around and things to change. I'm ok with that, since I don't like an accessory in one spot for long. I am always moving things from room to room and shopping around my home for changes. Here are some recent changes I made to our family room shelves...

To keep it real, I actually didn't just 'shop around my home' for all of these accessories. I've been doing some store shopping, lately! But, half of the things are from other areas in my home!  :) Starting with the top shelf, I swapped out two smaller prints for one large print. I like that it draws your eye up, which gives the illusion of more space. It's a print from Italy that we had in another part of our home. The tortoise shell vase just switched sides and the chain accessory was from Target. It's from the Nate Berkus line and it's now on clearance!

For the second shelf, I brought in books from other parts of the home and also used some that we already had on this bookshelf. The clock was just moved to the top shelf. The 'B' candle jar was from our mantel and the Audrey Hepburn frame was from our dining room. I just found the white ginger jar at TJ Maxx for $12.99!

For the third shelf, the white tray and coral now sit on a dresser in the living room. If you follow me on instagram {AmberBInteriors}, then you know I just scooped up this grapewood branch at Pier 1 Imports. I had been eyeing it for a while and decided to go for it. I'm so happy I did, as it's large enough to have a shelf of its own. You can pick one up HERE.

For the fourth and fifth shelves, I found these amazing baskets at TJ Maxx. The fabric has great texture and adds a casual/ rustic quality to the room. They can fit everything from pillows and blankets to board games.

To give you an idea of where this shelf is in our family room, here's a little snapshot..

I wrote about the striped art prints on the fireplace HERE. I chose the green striped wrapping paper, because I liked how it worked with the Italy print from the top shelf.

Have you found any great deals lately... from shopping at a store, or your own home??  :)
