This and That

I was going back through some of my photos from last Fall

and I thought I'd just share them again.

Below is one of my favorite headers

taken from a photo of an old Adirondack chair that's seen better days.

Hope you're having a great weekend.

Vintage Inspiration Friday link is still open

I'll tell you what I've been doing this weekend soon.

Vintage Inspiration Friday #60 Vintage Ephemera Collage

Hi Everyone, it's that time of the week again,

time to link up anything "vintage or vintage inspired"

and all your Fall Decorating!

I've been a real lover of paper collage my whole life. I've always loved saving cards, notes, and bits of paper this and that. In my scrapbooks as a kid I saved movie tickets, Birthday cards, notes, magazine fonts...you name it! I guess I come by it naturally as my paternal grandfather was a printer.

Because of that, I wanted to share with you a couple of images of some paper collage that a friend of mine from Leola's creates. Kristi has been making these themed paper collages behind desilvered antique mirrors for several years. I thought I might have more photos of her work, but these two from the Fall Open House at Leola's in Ozark, Missouri, are my only photos.

Halloween

Paris

Aren't they great? 

 I love her use of type, images, and vintage ephemera.

Hopefully, you can see these images a little larger if you click on them.

And speaking of inspiration, 

wow, there's a lot of it our here this time of year.

Check out Marilyn from Shabby Redo for You

who gave new life to a sad little table with her own decoupage look.

Kathy from a Tiny Cottage On Grand

unleashes her inner vintage Jack-O-Lantern!

Bella from Bella's Rose Cottage shares her 

wonderful Fall-O-Ween Mantle

And Elizabeth from Pinecones and Acorns

inspired us with a friend's painted table creation.

This is free-hand folks!

Last but not least is Tee from Browne Eyed Belle 

She's wowing me with this fabulous Dining Room.

Go check out the "black" walls!

Hope you have a great weekend!
