White Wednesday

I can't believe another week has whizzed by. At least it's my favorite day of the week...."Wednesday" where lovers of decorating with white get to show it off.

Who says white has to be boring?

These pieces of jewelry I may have already shown you but there's a few more that got sorted out from the mixed bag of jewelry. Some were broken, some missing stones but that just makes them that much more interesting. The worse ones will get used in projects.

A collapsable doll bed that may end up being Nigella's bed but until I can figure out how she can sit in it without it.............. well, collapsing then it'll be a doll bed. It didn't seem to have a way of securing it. I like the idea that it can be put away compactly so I don't want to glue it or nail anything to prevent that.

More junk jewelry hanging off the corner of the bedpost. The pillow is one I already owned.

The jewelry hanging off the corner reminded me of my friend Jackie's (Home) blog header but in a mini version.

Whatya think??? For those of you who have not yet visited Jackie you are missing out. She is talented with amazing taste and so laugh out loud funny....that British wit you know!!!

Actually I shouldn't even tell you about her.....she's already getting too famous and popular and will get distracted if all of you go and visit. Then she'll forget all about little ol' me....lol

A friend of mine was selling at the show so in her booth I couldn't help but buy these small linen drawstring bags with my initials on them.

Brown transferware that I got in Brimfield for what I thought was a good price.....I forget now how many pieces...you can't tell from this picture. The platter was worth what I paid for all of it. Brown transferware is probably my favorite but I only get them if the pattern is what I really like. I haven't found many I haven't liked. A lace collar that I first thought I'd frame but this seemed so much better and easier. Just tied around the top of a cloche. Just make sure you put it on the back and not the front of what you have inside the cloche. You probably figured that out yourself!

One of the white urns sitting on wine barrels. I'm not that fond of the wine barrels but they make the urns look more promenant in the room and right now they're filled with dried hydrangeas. In the past I've had ferns in them....but you know how hard it is to have ferns in the house in the winter. It's a full time job to keep them watered and not shedding everyday. We bought the wine barrels from a local winery~ Chamard's in Clinton. It was owned by the owners of Tiffany's at one point but not sure if it's still is. Never saw any diamonds there when I visited. ha-ha!

Thanks for stopping by...

and thank you so much for your kind comments on my last post of the beach in our little shoreline town.

I enjoyed reading what the images mean to you. Sometimes it's better when I write less and let you tell me what it stirs in you. The words you write inspire me and are so much better then anything I would write. You reach deep down inside and reveal a special moment or memory in your life. It means so much to me that you would share these things with me.

That is what I love about blogging!

Til we meet again...
