Red Wheels

Well, it's getting dark earlier and it's a bit cooler in the mornings.

Fall is definitely here!

This week-end I did a little treasure hunting.

This little red wagon and the red metal chair were a few of my finds.

I didn't even notice the writing on the side of the wagon until I took the picture.

Don't you just love those red wheels?

I hope your Monday is going well!

Until next time...

White Wednesday!


Being that it's White Wednesday, I quickly pulled a couple of things together from this week-ends treasure hunting.

This pretty white Homer Laughlin pitcher was a fun find.

At $3.00 you can hardly pass that up...so I didn't.


Even though these roses are near the end, I love the look of the fallen petals.


This old cedar "Young Ladies Hope Box", as it states inside, was another find.

I love the fact that it was painted a creamy white.


And last, but never least, "Baby", my helper for this photo shoot.

Wishing you a happy White Wednesday.

Thank you Kathleen
for hosting this event.

Don't Judge...

Don't judge a book by it's cover.

We've all heard that, haven't we?



This week-end my #1 picked up this box.

It didn't look too pretty, but I was in a hurry so I didn't worry about it.

When I got home and looked inside it was so pretty.


The soft pastel colors.

The pretty vintage lace.

Old thread...


The beautiful silk lining in robin's egg blue.


That button I found on the kitchen table, well I know where it came from (see 2nd photo).

Unfortunately, I threw it away in the garbage and I really don't want to go through it. Ugh...

Fall At Home


It's amazing how having company over is just the bit of inspiration needed to whip the house into shape.

This week-end I had a baby shower for my niece, it was so much fun.

While hiding finding a place for everything I took one of my week-end finds, this cute sideboard, and used it as a display in the entryway.


It's nothing fancy as the paint has been striped but I do love that look.

I hope I don't end up keeping it, I love the way it looks, Ugh!

Hopefully this feeling will pass.


But while it's still here I had fun creating a Fall display with it.


I'm enjoying white Mums right now.

So pretty.

On another note, the Fall Show at Monticello is in full swing.

We've been adding new thing all the time.



I hope you've had a chance to stop by.

I'm joining Kathleen for White Wednesday this week.

Be sure to stay tuned as my sister-in-law and I are working on getting a giveaway going this week.

Thanks for stopping by!

Monticello Fall Show

The Fall Show opens at Monticello Antique Marketplace today at 8:00am.

I wanted to share with you what we've been working on, I say "we" because without the help of my #1 I couldn't put everything together.

I tell him he's the bones of our space, I'm just the fluff!
