A Little Bit of Fall

Hello everyone! I’m so happy, I’ve finally learned how to load and post pictures from
my iphone onto windows 10…how did I do it? What I should have did in the first
place… Googled it! At least two months of this and what I’m surprised at is  my son
not doing it. Oh well, I’m just glad that I’ll be able to get back into blogging again, I’ve
missed everyone and all of the parties that I wasn’t able to join in, now I’ll be joining
in on all the Friday ones today!
These pictures were taken with my phone and at night so please bare with me!
I have this cloche on my desk in the livingroom, doesn’t the pumpkin look real? Wish I
could remember where I bought it!

I have painted a few things on my bloggy break such as the little cupboard from Michael’s that
I had painted black and the child’s chair that I got from the curb! Now I have a fall pillow on it!
See my new knob from Hobby Lobby on the cupboard, I can’t stay out of that store.lol

Here is a closer look at the pitcher.

I printed this I think last year so I forget who I got it from, let me know it is you ok? It is sitting
on my kitchen shelf with my .50  glass squirrel from Avon!

My mantel, funny how I do it different each year but with the same “stuff”
do you do the same thing or buy new?

Okay guys, I took more pictures so I’ll be sharing those soon…now here are parties I’ll be joining, It’s so
good to be back!

Fall Diningroom 2013

Remember these Dollar Tree plates I bought either last year or could be the year before?  And I know you
remember the ironstone gravy boat for .25 at a yard sale in May, my lucky day, they are looking pretty good in the hutch for
fall.

This is my view from where I sit at my desk. I added the fall wreath to the shutter and put my white stool
underneath it.

This year I put a tray on top the little ladder with my cloche and black and white pumpkins.

Same centerpiece as last year too. Just so easy to move when we eat our dinner here!

Cloche and Something Industrial



Happy Hump Day to you! The weeks seem to be flying by, beautiful weather but we are supposed to get some really bad storms later, hopefully not like OKC, I pray for those people! I’ve never been in a tornado and God willing I  never will but from the news showing the devastation it is mind boggling!
My new cloche!
I’ve used Dollar Tree chocolate, candy candles in it with a DT dolie, plus the cloche itself is from the a yardsale this past weekend.

My Spring Mantle 2013


Hello everyone! I hope your having a nice evening, I took some pictures today because although it’s cold out the sun was shining!
I’m so ready for capris and flip flops aren’t you?
I knew I bought the two wicker trays at the church sale for something and for $3.00 I didn’t go wrong! I placed the cloche on the mantle too along with the new, little suitcase.

The eggs are about 30 some years old, I made them in ceramics class and the moss ball I found at Walmart…the last one they had!

The rabbit is from TJMax, they had a smaller one but I thought the bigger one would look better up there!

The egg cup is from Target with a Dollar Tree egg, looks how it sparkles in the mirror!

I tied some of my Baker’s twine around this box, it’s the blue kind!

Now for this picture…do you think the burlap lampshade with the red going around it looks better or the plain one that I changed it to? I just can’t decide!

New Cloche


Hey everyone! How are you tonight? Got home from work had dinner and then got on here to join all the great parties going on today!
I found this cloche at TJMaxx a couple weeks ago and just put it out Saturday but really couldn’t figure what to put in it that I haven’t done before, this one is different, it has a pedestal that came with it.
So I went to my pinterest board Cloche Ideas and decided to do the one with the book pages tied with twine. It’s the first picture on the board and if you want to follow me on Pinterest I’d love it!

I don’t tear up old books just ones that weren’t a good read and are usually from Goodwill.

I also bought a white mat for the picture of New York City now just have to get a black frame. The scale I found for $5.00 at a community yardsale a couple summers ago!

A Cloche for Fall


Hello all! I’m ready for Marty’s Cloche Party… barely, I worked today and was thinking about doing this when I got home, not thinking that it will be dark when I get there:(. So these pics were taken at night, forgive me okay?) I have the cloche in my keeping room as I call it, on my wood table.

I used my Halloween gourd that I found at GW for .39, still have the tag on the bottom of it!
Everything you see I have had so didn’t have to buy a thing which I love!

Marty’s Egg-cellent Cloche Party !


Hi all, I’m joining Marty’s party for the fabulous spring cloche party!
I have to put this up a little early because I work today and I don’t want to miss out on any fun! I used the cloche I bought at Homegoods when they had their grand opening, I looked high and low for a faux chocolate bunny but couldn’t find one anywhere, so I used a brown bunny from GW. I love the word chocolate on it but it does interfere with what I have inside so I turned it around.

Isn’t he cute, I don’t think I even paid a dollar for him! The ceramic egg I made in the early 70’s in ceramic class. Glad I kept them because they do come in handy during Easter! The milkglass cakeplate is also from GW.
P3122624
The wood barrel was 25 cents about 12 years ago at the fleamarket.
P3122625
I think it looks pretty neat under my subway art!

I’ve been wanting to show you this little wire crate I bought for Buster’s toys at either Marshall’s or TJMaxx, I always get those two confused.LOL
P3122628
It says Dog’s Doodads on the metal tag, everything in there is torn and chewed but Buster still seems to like them!

Thanks as always for stopping by, always love having you! Don’t forget the Linky Follower at the very top of the post in the sidebar, I really don’t want to lose any of youSmile
