I Guess I'll Be Grateful...

I don't know whether to be insulted or thrilled.
I love magazines, and have been a subscriber to this one
for many, many years.
I let the subscription slide on this accidently,
so this is what I receive in the mail.

A huge "Senior Citizen" discount.
 So I guess being over 55 does have some perks!
Nothing like someone else's random opinion of your age,
 making you feel "FABULOUS"!
BTW, that is NOT my photo!
Have a good weekend, even if you're Over the Hill.

A "Cloche" Call

With fall in the air, ever so slightly,
my cloche collection has taken on an autumnal hue.
This little silver server is filled with clay fruit and potpourri,
and sits on my coffee table in the Living Room.
A small white pumpkin candle on the entry hall dresser.





These are my doves in a nest on the buffet in the Dining Room.







Sweet face on a fall leaf atop a milk glass cake pedestal.






Old cardinal figurine in the Dining Room.












This is my largest cloch, on top of my Kitchen china cabinet.
 I like my flower arragements to change with the seasons,
so I made this tiny one in a white iron urn several years ago.













This is my smallest cloche on a vintage autumn fruit tray.





Be sure and see Marty who is hosting the Fall Cloche Party over at her blog,

May all your treasured possessions be preserved with love.

White Wednesday, White Sheep Revisited

A few weeks ago I shared some of my sweet sheep. Today you can meet the rest. Most of these reside in my kitchen, but a few have roamed around the house, and are tucked in nooks and crannies all around.

This is a print above my desk in the kitchen. The black toile is a perfect compliment as a mat to the gold paint color on the walls.


This print is in my kitchen open hall above a black bench.
She is one of my first sheep prints.


I have about 15 prints that contain sheep, mostly grazing in pastures.



Hiding in a cabinet downstairs.


Downstairs coffetable



An oil painting anniversary gift several years ago that hangs in the Living Room.

Love those fall colors.


In a Christmas conservatory.


Sunroom baby

Out on the deck. I love this concrete baby lamb because she looks
like the headstones that were so typical of infant grave markers,
of many years ago.




Entry hall


Primitive print in kitchen.


Very old concrete pair in sunroom


Kitchen counter soup tureen


chalk planter


Salt and Pepper shakers on silver kitchen tray.





Well, I think most have made their debut.


Be sure and visit Kathleen over at Faded Charm
to see all the rest of White Wednesday.

Happy Wednesday,

Debra
