I have always loved the layered look for decorating your home. Layering your accessories and furniture seems to be all the buzz in the blog world. Pure Style Home and Newlywed Diaries have both done articles about how to make your home looked lived in, not decorated. My house certainly looks lived in, considering it is only 1400 square feet, three children running around, and two dogs living in it. I love my house (although I wish I could add on a few hundred feet). I truly enjoy accessorizing my house and rearranging my furniture. Accessories get moved around on a daily basis. On the way home from Charlottesville yesterday, the whole family stopped in Ruckersville to browse the plethora of antique shops. Although I did not get anything, mainly because my children were bored and let us know every five seconds, I was looking for neat brass accessories for the house. Hopefully I can talk my hubby into taking me to the George Mason Antiques Show today. I have had great luck with big pieces of furniture at this show. It is where I got my Swedish armoire and beat-up kitchen table. I am not looking for anything in particular, just something to add to my already lived-in looking home.

Here is a sampling of some of my layered looks. If you come to my house tomorrow, I am sure it will look different!
(The pictures of my home are not that great, but you get the point)
