Autumn

As each changing season approaches, I say to myself......'why not decorate in neutrals as so many in blogland are doing'???  Then I look to Nature and see that there are not many neutrals out there!!!  I see greens, oranges, reds, faded rose and purple, brown and beiges.  So, self says to me.......'just not your style'......

Autumn is my fav season and I am embracing all that it offers!!  Here is my cherry hutch in the living room, my starting off point for this glorious time of year!!

  I cleaned the drapes and lace curtains, too bright without the drapes!!!

So here we are with it all put back to normal......

 I love these tiny pears.....the cups are ironstone Baptimal cups, English, 1800s.

 Seed balls and yellow ware mold in rice bowl.

Small  nappy holding antique velvet chick.........

 Chestnuts are so much a part of my Italian heritage.......I remember being so excited when we first had them in the Fall, roasted or boiled!!

 Yellow ware egg separator with dried pomegranate.......

 These are small custard cups and pudding bowls, collected over time......

Yippeeeeee!!!

Hooray, Fall is upon us!!!  At last, my very fav season!!!

I've been busy searching my stash of Fall pretties, but in the meantime here are some snippets of past glories........

Happy Fall.......!!!!!

Cuteness !!!!

Look what I found at HG......is this adorable or what???

All wrapped in cellophane.......so cute!!

Of course, I had to unwrap it.......

Lotsa goodies...

I so love retail therapy!!!

Some Easter pics.....

Hello again.........I'm still a bit under the weather after taking a serious fall a few weeks ago.  But wanted to join in on the Spring/Easter fun........so am posting pics taken a few years ago, and frankly, my décor is much the same today....nothing new!!!

Oh, yum, gotta have chocolate!!

Hope you are enjoying early Spring by you........it's rainy, cool, and maybe some snow on the way here.........

Hello Again!!

Hello, dear fellow bloggers!!!

I have been MIA for the past year.......it took that long to figure out how to get rid of the hacker on my blog, the unwanted ads, and the inability to access my blog!!  Thanks to a dear friend, Debbie, she fixed it all.......love you!!

I've been playing catch up by reading, at last, a year's worth of posts.........yes, my eyes are a bit bleary......  but fear not, I will return soon with some posts.

It was a busy year with a family wedding, some vacation time, some illness, and a miserable hot summer with no rain..........

Ah, Fall, my favorite time of year.........

Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving.............

                                                             Thankful............
