My late summer obsession with all things "sunflower"
has also taken over the hallway sideboard...
I wanted to bring in some deeper colors,
and the black framing of the print plays off the other darker accents.
like this old fruit tray that I found earlier this year.
Looks sorta "Fallish" to me...
(counting down the days)
But the real fun came
when I was able to use a few of my husband's demijohns,
and then two wine bottle crates that I picked up recently
for about $10 each at Relics.
the one above is much smaller, but has a hinged lid.
I thought this soup tureen with the grape design would be fitting in the wine box, also giving it a late summer grape harvest theme. (another almost Fall thought)
It's sitting alongside some sunflowers and black-eyed susans
in an old galvanized florist bucket.
A stack of white ironstone plates atop a platter
and an old carving set make it buffet ready.
(my sweet sis gifted me with the great ruffled ticking tea towel
from Pottery Barn last year)
I had fun bringing this all together,
I think it will stay for awhile...
at least until Pumpkin time.
(please hurry, I'm sick of this summer heat)
