WOODEN BEAD DECOR

It's been over two years since I closed my vintage/home design store and I still miss the creative outlet it gave me.  I sometimes go to the Pinterest board I created for the store and think about all the fun I had creating new spaces there.  As I was scrolling through the Pinterest images,  I realized how much I loved to decorate with wooden beads.  Garlands of wood beads tumbled in and out of the decor.  Most of my chandelier choices had wooden beads too.  I'm sharing some of the store displays in case you might want to add some wooden beads to your home too.

I love this white beaded pendant chandelier.  My daughter and I both have it in our homes.  Her chandy is above her table.  Mine is in a bedroom.

WHITE BEADED CHANDELIER IN THE STORE DURING THE HOLIDAYS

This brown beaded chandelier has a French vibe.  Notice the metal fleur-de-lis.  If you look in the background you can see the white chandelier again in a different store display.

Many times I simply turn a chandelier on its side and place it on a table.  It's much easier than hanging it in the store.  This one has gray beads.

In this next image you can see the bottom of a black beaded chandelier.  A turquoise bead garland drapes itself around the decor.

This image was  from our European container sale.  Beads dangle over the edge of a vintage yellow ware bowl.

I always drape bead garlands over books.  Candlesticks can be bookends.  A crown can take the place of a candle.

Bead garlands add some color to a bookshelf.

I filled a clear pedestal vase with blue bead garlands and spilled some white garlands out of a dough bowl. They're reaching for the floor.  Empty frames also like to be adorned with beads.

These red beads decided to drape themselves down a stack of vintage document boxes.

You can also add beads to a large bowl.

I placed a beaded tray upright and added beads.

Or, simply rest a garland on a table.
