French trunk....

My new, old coffee table...

a French trunk

 I actually bought it to sell in the shop,

had a change of heart,

gave it to my mom,

had a change of heart,

asked for it back.

 before you decide I am a bad daughter,

let me just say that we switch stuff up all the time,

and truth be told, more goes her way than mine.

So, it's justified....right?

I  love the old labels and stickers on the side...

 ...and the label that says

Paris, France

I like the bark brown

 in the room against all the whites.

Gives a little contrast.

I know I just posted on this room,

but if it wasn't already obvious....

I change things around sometimes a lot constantly.

Hubby loves hates this part of living life in the cottage.

fall inspiration with a touch of white....

As obsessed as I am about white,

I was thrilled to find a little fall inspiration

with a touch of white....

love these simple but sweet

window boxes.

This is definately on the list for next year.

I adore white pumpkins,

even velvet pumpkins are just a little bit

prettier in white.

Can you believe that next week is Thanksgiving?!

I am actually starting to get in the mood for the Christmas.

Did I just say that?

My little cupboard...

So here is my little white cupboard...



 I don't think there could be enough shelves

in my house to display my white ironstone and pottery.

Because if there was,

I would just buy more!

 I am absolutely obsessed with it,

and love to look at it.

 I love the thrill of the hunt

 finding those treasures

out there that are destined to be mine.

 And then coming home to arrange them

and find new homes for all my treasures.

 So, here is one of my favorite areas in the house...

come on in and look around!

There ya' have it,

a little white cupboard in my house, 

just the way I like it!

Testing, testing. One, two, three. Testing... just kidding. This is my very first blog, and subsequently my very first blog entry. And, I am not very computer savvy. So, hold on and enjoy the ride with me, it may be bumpy. Here are some images that will give you a tiny bit of insight about what makes my little ol' heart skip a beat. And what makes me, me.

One thing that must be said is that I am unmistakeably an urban cowgirl!

I am no expert on well, anything. But I do love to decorate, merchandise, live a lovely life, and share what I actually do know or what I figure out. So, what you will find on this blog is just that. Me figuring it out and sharing it with you. So, ya'll come back now, ya' here!
