A Spring coffee table vignette has brought this beautiful season into our family room!
March has arrived and with it, my desire for Spring, flowers, and warmer temperatures! The weather has started to warm up beautifully, and I’m waking up to the birds singing as they start building their nests. It has inspired me to bring bits of Spring into our family room with a Spring coffee table vignette.
Today, I’m joining a fabulous group of friends for the Styled & Set Spring blog hop hosted by my sweet friend Lory of Designthusiasm!
If you’re coming over from Kristen’s blog Ella Claire, then welcome! Be sure and visit all of the homes linked at the bottom of this post for more gorgeous Spring inspiration!
There’s no simpler way to bring Spring touches into a room than a very simple coffee table vignette.
Styling a coffee table is very easy! All you need is a pretty tray, books, flowers, and a few interesting accessories.
For our Spring coffee table in the family room, I used a large silver tray that I’ve had forever. It’s been used in a lot of different areas and it’s large size makes it the perfect foundation piece for our Spring vignette.
I placed a stack of decorating books on one side, and on top is a cement urn filled with Spring flowers.
Fresh flowers are hard to find around here while we’re still experiencing our cold weather, so I used faux flowers.
The faux flowers of today are so realistic that it’s hard to tell that they aren’t the real deal. Once warmer weather arrives and fresh flowers are abundant, it will be easy to swap out the faux blooms for real ones.
An antique ironstone compote topped with a large grapevine bird’s nest is placed on the other side of the tray.
Inside the nest are moss covered eggs that I made a couple of days ago. They were so simple to make and I love the natural look that they bring to the vignette.
Sitting in front of the compote are a couple of moss covered birds and a smaller nest with egg.
I love the texture of the moss and grapevine, and the greenery is the perfect compliment for the flowers. Adding accessories in different heights will create visual interest and keep the eye moving.
Beautiful pink (faux) tulips fill a moss covered bucket on the demilune table, finishing the Spring touches in the family room.
I also changed out the slipcovers on the IKEA sofas. The sofas have been wearing linen slipcovers in an oatmeal color for Winter, but for Spring, I changed them back to the white slipcovers.
Everything in the family room looks so bright and cheery now, ready for the arrival of Spring!

Cheers, Cindy

Everything is just gorgeous! You have great taste Cindy. I was missing your RubyLou but of course here she is ready and waiting for her photo shoot. She’s a doll.
Thank you Cindy for taking time to show us your beautiful work and home.
Have a blessed day.
Thank you, Maria! You are too sweet!
I love the leather coffee table. Can you share the manufacturer, or where it can be found?
Hi Patricia! The coffee table was purchased from Ashley Furniture many years ago. Unfortunately, I doubt that it’s still being made.
Hi Cindy! I’m sorry, but that lil Ruby Lou just steals the show every time, lol! She is just too precious!! I’m so happy you include her in your blog posts. Plus it’ll be like a little photo timeline journal for you as she ages, just like a child’s growth chart so to speak. I just love your spring vignettes, they’re so sweet and simple. I love all the moss and that adorable little crown! Do you know where I can get crowns for my Santos cage dolls or am I going to have to make them? It’s so hard trying to find the right size! Anyway, I just love your whole room! And I love your faux flowers! Who cares if they’re not real, they LOOK real and that’s all that matters. If you’ve got them, why not use them, they’re an investment. They’re nothing like our mothers faux flowers from back in the day. Oops I’m ageing myself, lol!! The white slip covers really brighten up the room for spring! I love your posts and all your vignettes. Always look so forward to them. Have a great day!
Thank you, Shelia!
Cindy, what an exquisite vignette!! I love the moss covered items and the way you mix everything together. A perfect way to welcome the season!
Thank you, Lory!
Hi Cindy! I love your blog and all of your decorating ideas! Sorry but I just can’t get into spring decor just yet. I live in Michigan and we have snow and the high was 19 today. I am desperately waiting for spring! I have been buying a few new things for spring so when April rolls around I’ll be ready to go! In the meantime I’m snuggled up with a comfy throw and a fire in the fireplace.
Have a great one!
The little crown on the bird is too cute!
Thank you, Mildred!
Pink and green – one of my fave color combinations! I need the bird with the crown in my life! He’s just adorable!
Thanks, Jennifer!
Hello Cindy, what a beautiful vignette, I have been getting thing ready in my home for the up coming season……
