Stitches, Quilts and Shamrocks- Foyer Decor

A lovely Tuesday to you!  

The last time I left off on my country clutter post , I was showing you the quilts in the small foyer/ hallway. I had pulled out 3 "springy" quilts to display on the old thrifted shutters. 


Since I was on a roll, I went back to the storage room and pulled out more goodies to decorate with. I was thinking " greens" and "St . Patrick's Day " as the theme. 
 It did not take long to fill the shelves to the brim with spring goodness with sprinkles of vintage pieces, baskets , doilies and wee quilts. 
Lots of country clutter on the old thrifted shelf. 

Some of the things on the top shelf stay out year round.  The riser is an old shelf from one of my Granny's dresser - a sweet reminder of days long ago.  


On the top of the drawer is a freebie from Notforgotten Farms called "Shamrock Basket" .  My mind escapes me- Do you know who the designer of "Lucky " is ?  I simply tucked it into some green enamelware bowls. 


The wool shamrock mug rug was a free design from Shabby Fabrics but I do believe it costs now. ( I am not for sure on that) .
 Tucked in the basket is my Shamrock Mini Sampler
 Lucky Shamrocks is a St. Patty's favorite. It  is a freebie from Nan Lewis of Threadwork Primitives. 

Now here I go again-  my mind is a blank on the 9 shamrocks. Do you know who the designer is? LOL. 



I tucked a little stack of bowls in a corner and put "March Squared" in one . It  is a freebie by Linda Stolz of Erica Michaels ,and it is on Rainbow Gallery website in the 2003 Cross Stitcher's Surprise series

The middle shelf holds a mod podge of items like pottery, sheep and stitching.  I chose some of my mini samplers and tucked it into one green planter. These little samplers were Mini Squirrel Sampler and  Little Red Schoolhouse Mini Sampler  . I placed them strategically where only the letters could be seen and not the "out of season " motifs. LOL. 


Rolled quilts , bowls and my sheep pitcher is in the opposite corner along with Winter on Pine Berry Lane



I just left the bottom shelf the way it was filled with just a few of my Watt's pottery pieces and knick knacks. 



So tell me . Do you think I am getting my green on? LOL. I missed not decorating for St. Patrick's Day last year so I am making up for lost time.   


Thank you for stopping by to see my clutter.  I will be posting a hutch tour soon.
