To Bust or Not to Bust?

...That is the question!  These busts can make for great accessories in your room.  They are statues of a person's head, usually, and they remind me of historical design, traditional style, eclectic style...and yet can even be incorporated into modern designs.  Here are a few "bust" inspirations for you...

One is used here in this great room design with sleek, clean lines and modern graphic patterns...but it looks really great!  It almost looks like the "perfect" filler accessory for this spot and works in well with all the white.

Here is a lovely pair of busts and they are mixed in with other silver accessories.  I think it's just the right touch for this spot too...don't you agree?

Here it is used with a more vibrant color - my fave - PINK!  I simply love how it pops even the trim work in the white.  "Simply Irresistible"...in my book anyway!

These have become so popular that Pottery Barn even added them in their accessory selection.  How about this use of one at your bedside...to put your necklaces on.  Like it...or not?

This one here looks to maybe be on a pedestal behind the sofa (but could be put on a sofa table for same effect).  I love how it is incorporated into the overall window design with these draperies and it displaying itself right smack dab in the middle.

For that little more modern or eclectic look...here it is again!  These little (or big) statues can be used just anywhere.

I was intrigued by the finish on this one...and the fact that it is used in a bathroom.  Sometimes this spot, the back of a commode, is hard to accessorize just right, but I think this is totally the right spot for this bust.  It ties into this space so nicely (especially with those window treatments and black cabinets).  To give it the right height it is even just sitting atop a planter...how's that for creative!

So, again my question...to bust or not to bust?  What do you think?  Have you added one of these simple accessories in your home?  Would you now that you've been inspired with these photos?  Do tell, please...we'd love to know what you really think.

Have yourself a blessed and "Simply Irresistible" weekend!

Ta-Ta!
