Silver Sunday Surprise

Today is Silver Sunday and I wanted to share a little silver sumpin'

I found at our Ozarks Craft Fair last weekend.

We've been going for the last 20 years or so,

and it's always such fun.

This darling little silver creamer

transformed itself into a sweet little lamp.

This is on my kitchen counter.

My English tray which depicts Buckingham Palace in the background,

and a few "cocky" friends.

And who doesn't love a stack of English Ironstone?

And the surprise?

Sweet Beth was having a Silver Sunday Give away

of which I was the lucky winner!

A $50 Anthropologie Gift Certificate,

a 1936 Pocket Diary,

AND one of her wonderful necklaces with the dolly and top hat.

(Thank you for saving me one!!) 

These pink ribbons and lace were almost too pretty to unwrap!

Thank You, Dear Beth, Love all the goodies!!

Hope you're having a wonderful Day.

Yard work awaits!

love,

Debra

Vintage Inspiration #6 Porch Party!!

Hi Everyone!

Today is the day for the

Fall Porch Party

here at

Vintage Inspiration Friday!

Welcome to my Home

Our house faces south, but with all the large trees around here,

we don't get a lot of sun on the porch.

And since my hard maple in front,

 doesn't show Fall color till later this month,

I have a lot of shade and dappled sunlight.

I love having a front porch, wish it was larger,

but I enjoy decorating what I have,

and the stairs give me a great place to display my mums and pumpkins.

Earlier, I was trying to think of what to use this year on the porch,

Then I remembered my concrete planters in the back full of impatiens.

They were repotted and I hauled these babies up front,

to hold my mums.

(And I do mean HAULED)

HEAVY!!!

I have several vintage metal picnic tins,

and love to include them in my vignettes

since I can cram fill them full of vintage goodies and plants.

These little guys were needing a big drink.

I love mums and pumpkins of every color and variety.

My orange watering can is hiding back there. 

super duper cute curly stem on this one

Love my little "Half" park bench chair

although my son in law fusses every time they have to drag luggage

through the front door..."hey", Keith!!

I've had mysweet little concrete Momma and Baby squirrels for over 20 years. 

Hope you'll  join in on the party!

Just grab a pumpkin,

and your camera,

and take a pic.

Remember, even if your not doing your porch today,

please join in with whatever vintage inspiration

that you may have!

October Give Away!!!

Just be a party goer and you're automatically entered!

Have a Wonderful Inspired Week!

love,

Debra
