This time of year I get to spend more time at home.......well I still go to the greenhouse everyday but not as long, so I actually get some time to photograph more then plants and bugs....oh that's right I keep the bug pictures to myself...don't want to make you squimish....not yet.....it's not Halloween yet.
A display on the wine barrels where the big urns are. A new clock recently bought at Brimfield. I have metal wings that fell off some birds I received so they ended up here.
Making time fly????
The Pumpkin King or Queen? you decide!........where else to use my crowns. Your probably wondering why this pumpkin is sooo white. It's covered with a white paint with a touch of grey. It just happened to be that shade but I think it looks much better then stark white.
A small grouping of ordinary old bottles which I will do something with them someday but for now I enjoy them on this hutch just plain and simple.
The faux pumpkin that I don't have to worry about eventually get to the mushy stage. I've had luck with some pumpkins. I have one little one that has made it through from last year. It's just luck.
This little area has become the little wedding area in a sense. Not pictures of our wedding day. Gosh no!!!
We have none of those....that's a story for another post!
This plaster bust has been here for awhile but it's made it's rounds all over the house. The alabaster lamp I bought at an auction years ago. Everytime an alabaster lamp would come up I always bid against the same women. I think she was not happy with me.
I won 3 all total at different times. Auctions can be very competitive and dangerous for me though I've never regretted any of my purchases.
The gold liquor decanter set belonged to my parents probably from France.

What a pretty and inspiring post, Carole! I love your pumpkin crown, and I have to tell you that I am one of those people who buys alabaster lamps whenever I see ones that I can afford! They add instant warmth and age and loveliness to a room, don't they? xoxo Gigi
poor hubby, having to hang out in the basement!! wonderful photos today...i love the first two, the bowl of treasures and the way the light is!! and i own the exact SAME clock (it weighs a ton)! we can't grow the Snowberry here or at least i have not been able to find it! Darn! cuz i love it so much! i have been able to buy the dried Tallo Berries though. do you have those?
Your photos really capture the essence of your items. I especially love the first two. Very romantic looking. My snowberries are really pretty right now, but I'm afraid the rain will turn them all brown shortly. Thanks for sharing all your white wonders.

Hey Carole,
Love this peek into your castle.....all the white looks so pretty. Did you paint your pumpkin? Are my white pumpkins painted??? I don't think so ...I'm going home lunch time to check...wow.
...and nice crown!

Your wedding area is awesome. Just lovely!
The picture of your snowberry is so pretty and I'm sitting here wondering why I don't have one of them.
Hugs,

Oh Carole... I absolutely love snowberries. I have a little wreath made from snowberries and I think it's so pretty. It hangs on a door, all year round. I love all of your white treasures and your wedding corner and the wings on your clock look brilliant. A lovely White Wednesday.I've had a bit of a white Wednesday myself...painting walls in three rooms white !!!! XXXX
pretty post...love the clock...

Gorgeous White! That clock is just darling!
And what a great idea to paint the pumpkins! I was already searching for white pumpkins in vain and this is the solution. Thanks for the inspiration!
Big hug, Jeannette
Hi Carole
Good to be back! Your white Wednesday is fabulous, your photos are really good...did you get a new camera or are you just getting that good :)
I loved everything and the headpiece looks fabulous where you have it~so glad you had a place for it
I forgot my camera at the shop today so will have to post tomorrow or Friday. I am having a Halloween open house tomorrow night...not really up for it, I think I have car-lag...

Carole, great WW post & pics...love 'em all. The snowberry definitely caught my attention...awesome..wonder if that would grow in FL? I am shamelessly blog hopping and asking my favs a favor. I just posted about a decorating dilema, and I would grealy appreciate it if you had a minute to stop by and offer your opinion.....I figured this would be cheaper than paying a designer!!!
Thanks,
Susie

Beautiful pictures! i especially love the transferware plate behind the old bottles. Pretty as a picture!
You have decorated beautifully! I just love the display on the wine barrel and the pumkin with the crown. The wedding area is very sweet, too! Have a great weekend, Julia :-)
Hi Carole
Well I love that clock. I've seen a few like that in my blog travels yet nothing like it in real life [well at least not MY real life]
You've done a wonderful job yet again of making me envious of your fine collections.. Great photos and gorgeous things.. and Transferware be mine! haha
Have a great weekend. xx Julie
