This little arrangement of Parisian scenes is one of my favorite spots in the house right now. I found three old frames that I had on hand and painted them the same color as the ceiling. I'll just be honest, I'm a terrible painter, evidenced by the fact that I will paint any material. I'm surprised I haven't taken a brush to the living room carpet. The frames turned out alright, considering the fact that I'm sure every paint expert would tell me that I can't paint plastic.
(If you think this arrangement looks a bit unbalanced, the fireplace itself is not centered, so I counteracted the weight of the fireplace with a heavier weighted arrangement on the opposite side of the mantel shelf. But I am planning to get something a little taller for the spot where that green candle is.)

really cute, Lindsey! LOVE the soft blue! where did you get the Parisian scenes? are they postcards?
I love it. Paris does it for me. But also, your colors, and the groupings of things that you do are just appealing.
Hope, they are little notecards that I picked up at La Bella Vita about 6 years ago. I had them in Darcy's nursery in the last house, but I needed something cheerful in the living room.
