Photo 3. I like that the table top is not as cluttered and that you can see the photo.

I’m torn between 3 and 5. The others feel too cluttered.

#5 - liked the way it looked at first glance.

@lolakimono

#4 - Please.

Like the juxtaposition of the glass, metal, plants & line drawings. I would remove the smaller jar & the smaller plant, still leaving an odd # of 7.

I’m an Asian / Deco taste wise.

Thanks for posting.

The 2nd one. Love blue and white. I like that the frame and table are same color. Love flowers for decorating. I like the silver clock and lamp in a darker blue. I like ginger jars.

My eyes aren’t pleased with any of them, but if I HAVE to pick one, I pick #3, because it is less “busy”. I like the table and would tolerate the boxes, but the rest has to go. I just don’t like these types of decorative touches.

I like the colors in #2 and the table in #3.

I like #2 and #4...they are the most pleasing to my eye.

Love them all except for #1

The reason is that the center vase is totally covering the picture which makes the whole vignette wrong.

Number 1 because I like blue, but find it to be the most easy on the eyes. I almost feel my eyes let go of the strain when I see the color.

#4 is the best one here IMO. However, I would remove one or both of the plants as they hide the artwork behind them.

Homegoods. Some of the items just scream Homegoods to me.

Number 2 absolutely flows! The curves of the table legs echo the curves of the ginger jars.

The placement of the ginger jars, one slightly in front of the other, is in a wonderful juxtaposition with the sailing picture. The sailboat adds to the curved theme as one can imagine it skimming over curled waves.

The flowers, clock, and urn lamp are in another perfect trinity, as the eye appreciates the height differences.

Asymmetry above the table top with almost-symmetry below.

Below, it is clever the way the three non-identical objects make an almost perfectly symmetrical grouping.

Perfection. And I haven't even mentioned color.

The only one I like is #2 a little bit of color and not too much stuff.

#6, the other have so much stuff in them, they look like a display for a sale at Walmart. I think you have to be careful if you're working with element with busy designs like the blue jars. They over-whelm the vignettes.

#2 Because of the colors and the shapes of the objects.

#3 I like the table with the riding boots beneath and that tiny little golf club or whatever it is-it would make more sense if it was a crop-it probably is. It just looks like a golf club. I also like the item that it is laying on but haven't figured out exactly what that is either.

#3 - just because I wanna wear the boots.

#1 - It reminds me of the time I taught in Japan, and I love the colors in the print on the wall!

#2 - was my second choice. What threw me off was the 2 ginger jars being the same height, I thought a dip downward in the arrangement would add to the curve, but being the same size looked boxy to my eye. If the inner jar had been smaller with the ball on top reaching the height of the shoulder of the outer jar, well, I would have had a tie on my hands! Just my opinion, worth every penny it cost you. 😏

Today was a good day wasn’t it? Must have tried the patience of the MODs.

Really enjoy these vignettes @lolakimono Thanks for sharing. So, which is your fave?
