The White Rabbit


While we were in St. Louis, my daughter and I had a couple of fun days of shopping. These pics are from my fave store,
The White Rabbit.  Hope you enjoy, and if you're in the area please stop by, it's really a wonderful store, with a great mix of vintage and new.

Here's their mascot, ready for Trick or Treat

Crazy skeleton pillow from another great store,



She had to have it for her front porch!

Vintage Inspiration # 110

Hi Everyone,
and Welcome to Vintage Inspiration!

We were out of town all last week, so I didn't get to visit many of you, but I had a great time going thru the links picking features this week. Amazing what lies behind those little thumbnail photos that are posted! Here are just a few of the wonderful links from you all last week, that are full of vintage Fall and Halloween inspiration.

Jill from Feathers and Flight is a wonderful artist, and if you haven't met her you will want to check out her blog for her amazing collage and digital work. When I saw this Luna Hanger and Tree of Crows I wanted to share it with you. Thanks Jill, you always inspire me!



Just part of Jill's Halloween decor along with her beautiful mantel.




You have to take a peek at this Vintage Spooky Dolly and Carriage and then read the backstory of these family treasures from Tracey at Crow's Feet Chic



Cathy has the most "Charming" cottage, and just take a look at her front porch decorated for Autumn at My 1929 Charmer . The white wicker and plaid blankets are just my cup of tea!



What a great way to decorate your garden gate; a fun rustic rake head with Indian Corn from Linda at It All Started with Paint.


And Missy from Junkfest
worked a miracle on these wonderful chairs
using vintage burlap coffee sacks...so cool!


Hope you'll join in today for the party, 
"Anything vintage or vintage inspired"
And since we're still in the middle of Fall
I'd love to have you share any Fall or Halloween related posts.
DIY, decor, crafts, recipes...anything about Fall.
Please have a link within your post to be featured.



And I'd like to introduce one of my new sponsors


Where you can find some beautiful art prints framed and ready to go.
This is one of my favorites



and while you're partying today, 
be sure and visit these other fun Friday parties:








And on a side note, I wanted to invite you by my sweet friend Debbie's over at Debbie-doos Friday morning as she has invited me to be her feature in her Home Tour Series. thanks Debbie for the honor!!

Got your Fall On?
Let's Party!

Top Three

Kim started a trend that I really like, of sharing the top three visited links from her Wow party, so I thought I'd give the concept a try. More fun to share with all of you who come to the Vintage Inspiration Friday party each week. So here are the top three, hope you'll go by and visit, if you didn't get a chance earlier.

Nancy aka the Headmistress created some wonderful Fall door decor on her chicken coop with an old potato digger and a bunch of faux bittersweet. Don't you just LOVE this?



More front porch decor with some Indian Corn framed out with a vintage oval by Theresa at The Old White House.


And Dru from the Country Farm Home shared all the great haul she found over the weekend, including a whole flock of  "chickens" and a wonderful enamel coffee pot.



Hope to see you tomorrow for the party. 
"Anything vintage or vintage inspired" 
and all your Fall Fun!

Fall on the Sunporch


Just a few overdue pics from the sunporch for Fall...


Making use of the bittersweet and some deer antlers.











These next few are some of my fave pics from this season.
Just look at the face of complete innocence...








now wait a minute, girlie!










Here's the other one.









 I always have fun mixing and matching the quilts and pillows for a new look each year. 














 If you'd like to see what I did last year,
 then here are some pics from last year's porch.


 Being away from home for almost a week, I feel like I'm trying to play catch up. There are so many things I wanted to do this Fall, but taking care of my sweetie has been my top priority. We saw a specialist in St. Louis last week for his inner ear, vertigo, and hearing loss. This doctor told us more in 5 minutes than we had been given in months and months of doctors visits and therapy. Hubbs is on a medication regimen at the moment, but we have options for down the road...much more hope and confidence for recovery than we were having before. Anyway, hope you enjoyed the photos from this week on the sunporch. Ahhhh....my favorite season for decorating out here.

If you didn't make it by earlier in the week, come check out all the great shopping links at the Marketplace; just scroll down to the last post. It's live all week, so feel free to link up any of your Etsy or Boutique Items.
