Life is a bowl of Cherries

Lets shelve it

Open shelving can be tricky- it can often look crowded and messy- this house is textbook perfect

We created a foyer with a round table

A place for mail , magazines and a great bouquet

All shelves are matching in hue and theme 

A place for the eye to rest and be stimulated

Books give them a framework

Christmas Decorating

Just a few little touches on the dining room shelves adds up to Christmas cheer

Books, clocks and shiny brights

Flea market glasses

Lowfields Ribbon on wreaths( thanks Kellie)

Red glasses

I took alot of glasses out of cabinets and put them on shelves for the holidays and for easy access.

Glasses on silver trays

It's Beginning to look a lot like Christmas

We have started to decorate the farm- this years color is RED!!!!!!!!

And they must be old shiny brights

I have collected glass balls for a long time

And of course we are unpacking the men-- this is a picture from a Country Living photo shoot

                                                    Stay tuned….

Thanksgiving

It's time to start thinking of table decoration for next week's Thanksgiving holiday.   Taking something as easy as silver pitchers and filling with affordable flowers can really pull together a lovely table!  

Cutty thinks his table is great with the addition of some emergency vehicles!

Too cute and easy

Halloween

Some spooky photos of the farm

                     


                       This is an old grave from 1838 on the farm with beautiful carving.


                          Happy Hallows Eve

Autumn- Scents and Sensibilities

Finally we are getting a bit of fall weather-I love it. Even though the garden is in its last stages, there is still a lot of work….

All the seed saving, watering and weeding have led to…
