The Entry, Part Deux

A couple of weeks ago I did a post on White Wednesday

of things that were white in my entry.

Here are a few more photos that give the overall view of this area.

Below is the small Eastlake chest/dresser/buffet.

The finish was already painted when I bought it.

It is highlighted with gold, and it took me awhile to get used to it,

but now I really love it because it is so different.

This is a close up of the trademark bullseye, which is part of the Eastlake motif.

The old church pew is really rough, but the black paint helps hide some of it's problems.

This is my Dining Room view from the entry.

This little black wagon holding the conservatory is one

of my favorites to decorate for holidays and the seasons.

It looks pretty bare right at the moment.

I can hardly wait for September. August is just too hot for me,

and by this time of the year I'm ready to start thinking about

cooler weather, pumpkins, and the brilliance of

the fall leaves and blue sky.

I bought a pair of these topiaries to use for Alyson's wedding,

now they are on either side of the hallway.

Little old concrete garden girl painted black many years ago.















And here's one of the "watch kitties" waiting for you to come and visit.




Happy Friday!

Hope you have a great weekend!

White Wednesday, Out and About

Now that I am on the "lookout" for white items and displays, I am seeing more detail and noting the nuances of white...the different shades, textures and materials. Here are a few photos from my excursions this last week in Ozark, at three different stores.

I have loved old clothing since I was a little girl. My Dad restored antique cars, and we always had authentic clothing to match the year of the cars. It was a wonderful activity for our whole family. We really did it up big. I need to go through my Mom's boxes of momentos and find some of those great photos.

This little lady appears to be somewhat askew, but I think it's just the mannequin.

Someone we all know purchased this incredible set,

so you will probably be seeing it again, at one of the shows.

If I had seen it first, it would be at my house under my oak tree in the backyard.

These are bookmarks, aren't they gorgeous?

Be sure to visit Kathleen at Faded Charm

and check out the growing list of participants in her White Wednesday.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

P.S. Thankyou for all the caring comments about my daughter

and her health, from yesterday's post.

We all had dinner, and enjoyed our time together so much.
