Top Three links from Vintage Inspiration

We're all saying it,

 "This month has just flown by and now it's Thanksgiving!" 

I didn't want to skip Vintage Inspiration this week, so I'll be starting the link party later this afternoon instead of Thursday morning. Just a little early, so we can all still join in, and if you don't have all your relatives looking over your shoulder shaking their heads. Do you know what I mean? 'Nuff said...

So here are the three top viewed links from last week,

Are you ready for Christmas?

Jennifer from Town and Country Living shared some great inspiration images as she was thinking about going with a more natural theme this Christmas.

Jody from Rooted in Thyme gave us some paperwhite inspiration. Not only does she use containers, but she has them growing "en masse" in her lovely garden. You'll love her potting cupboard, too.

And Brooke from Creative Country Mom has a Fall Country Kitchen Tree that will have you putting up that tree just a few weeks earlier next year.

From now on until the end of the year we'll be sharing 

all things Christmas.

Please join in with all your vintage and vintage inspired posts;

DIY, decor, Christmas traditions, recipes, crafts...

whatever says Christmas or Vintage to you!

See you later today!

On the table...

Since our younger daughter and her husband will be hosting Thanksgiving at their home this year, I haven't had to be concerned about a proper tablescape.  But I have changed out a few things on the table last week. I filled my ironstone tureen with about 10 paperwhite bulbs and sat it and my white velvet pumpkin  on my dark harvest-y vintage tray.

The Dining Room has beautiful soft light most of the day.

I took out the "orange" leaves in the windowbox centerpiece

 and in their place added some faux evergreens.

adding a little "Winter" and removing a little "Fall"

But a bigger change came on the table by swapping out the dark grain sack fabric for this lighter creamy burlap fabric, which I just folded over once lengthwise and left the edges raw. I like the lighter burlap for this week which will soon be changed out for Christmas. I found a wonderful antique grain sack with a red stripe on Etsy from Austria. I'm planning on adding it over the burlap for my Christmas Season tablerunner. I'll share that with you soon, and the Etsy shop I purchased it from.

A set of my lambies approve.
