TGIF!!!!


This week has really flown by!
We have been working on the main floor bath this week……you can follow our progress on Pinterest.
It is finally beginning to resemble a bath once again!


I stumbled upon this house in England the other day and thought you might enjoy a tour……. I know I sure did!!!

Peaceful Sunday…….


Old Church.  I wish the walls could tell us all that happened there.  I'm sure life was very different then!:

Love is like a mountain,
hard to climb,
but once you get to the top
the view is beautiful.

Nice Truck & Fall Pumpkins - British Columbia, Canada:

There are so many cute jack o’ lantern ideas out there so I thought I’d share a few of my favorites!

One man’s junk is another man’s treasure…….


I’m not sure why but I am really drawn to architectural salvage pieces……which most people consider to be junk and I of course consider to be treasure!
I have been “collecting” for 25+ years so my house is pretty full but somehow I still seem to manage to squeeze more in! My newest find is this salvaged window frame.

It is a quirky piece…..I love the piece of metal in the center and the braces in the corners!

I’m not sure where it will end up but for now it has found a spot in the living room.

Hope to see you there!

Peaceful Sunday…….


Church in the French Alps:


Love feels no burden, 
thinks nothing of trouble, 
attempts what is above its strength, 
pleads no excuse of impossibility... 
It is therefore able to undertake all things, 
and it completes many things, 
and warrants them to take effect, 
where he who does not love would faint and lie down. 
Love is watchful and sleeping, slumbereth not. 
Though weary, it is not tired; 
though pressed, it is not straitened; 
though alarmed, it is not confounded...

The furniture shuffle……


mirror

For several years now  I have had this gold tone mirror hanging behind the sofa in the living room. It is an inexpensive mirror that I bought  at Kirkland's in the clearance section over thirteen years ago. I have never really loved the mirror but had never found the perfect piece to replace it so there it continued to hang….for years! Please tell me you have things in your own home like this too?!?!?!

The Cotswolds, England:



Fall has just begun 
As summer ends 
The color of the leaves gleaming in the sun 
Jumping in leaves with friends 
As the tumble down 
Forming a quilt on the ground 
Hearing the crinkle as you jump in 
Twisting and turning in the air 
Feeling of the brisk air blow in your face 
The warm and delightful smell of grandma's pumpkin pie 
This is fall

A new little trophy…….


We went to the antique market last weekend but I didn’t find much.

I did manage to come home with the sweet little trophy cup I found at an antique shop on the way home though.

Marriage is not a ritual or an end. 
It is a long, intricate, 
intimate dance together 
and nothing matters more 
than your own sense of balance 
and your choice of partner.

We made it to the weekend!!!!!
A little eye candy to start the weekend off right…….

Atchison Home | Dining Room | Antique Furniture:

Depending on where you live antlers and mounts may or may not be a trendy décor item. If you live in a region where hunting is very popular like I do they will never be out of style….
I have quite a few in my own home and like the texture they add to my rooms since my style tends to be more on the feminine side.
