New pillow

Just listed this sweet pillow on my website.....just in time for Christmas!!!

The many shades of aqua.....

I am joining the Cottage Colors Party at ECS, and this month the color is aqua.......

Aqua is one of my favorite old-timey color.....in the 50's my mom had an aqua kitchen with beige and melon accents.  There are many shades of aqua, and I love it paired with purple, pink or brown....here are a few of my pieces....




Various bottles and jars used for storage along with a milk glass sugar shaker and salt shaker in the quilted phlox pattern.









This is a transferware bowl, pitcher and razor box in teal, pattern name "Petunia"......the small pitcher in teal is the pattern "Jessica", love the little handle on this one.....




A one gallon storage jar, two apocathary jars, one with a repaired stopper, very clever, and a milk glass vase......thanks for stopping by......

More Fall....

I love Fall and hope it lasts forever!!!   The colors take my breath away and tonight we saw the Northern Lights over Lake Ontario!!!  What a treat!!!

These are pics of Fall decor in the living room and hallway.....small house, but I decorate every corner, nook and cranny!!!







I had to use the flash for these pics as it has been cloudy and rainy for awhile....don't know when we'll see the sun again!!!  This is the tea table all dressed for Fall.....



I just bought that little glass cloche with the wire and bird on top at Hobby Lobby, love that store, and got to use a coupon too!!!  The strawberry corn was just the right fit....


This is the foyer, will get better shots next time.........happy falling to all!!!

Fall

This is my favorite season and its like the changing of the guard.......my dining table has a few of the season's best colors......I used my silk/wool shawl in rich paisley to dress the table......




The tea set is George Jones, the bowl, Wood & Sons, wire cage from HL....have to find more pears!!!

antique mall find

Come see what I snagged at the antique mall yesterday.....an old milk bottle carrier with bottles!!!





The carrier is old, not sure about the bottles, they are in real good shape......but the cardboard lids are originals from local dairies.  I put an old beer tray upside down on the large crock and put the carrier on top.....since taking these pics I put a cloth over the tray!!!  This is a corner of my kitchen with the fridge on the right......
