~ Vintage Autumn Corsage~
Orange really isn't my color, but I thought this vintage corsage with roses and gold leafs was so pretty. I just might have to pin it on my jacket and wear it this week!
Hope you had a lovely weekend! :)

I'm Dreaming of a White... Autumn?

White Pumpkins, lace, pearls, and dried flowers, make a romantic autumn display in the cottage.

~ A Basket of Love~
A little goodie basket I put together for my mom, who has had a rough couple of weeks. Her brother (my Uncle Don) was seriously injured in a lawn tractor accident and has been in ICU. She has been wearing herself out, going to visit him every single day.
I thought she could use a little "pick-me-up", so I put together this basket of autumn goodies for her......

Have you smelled the "Creamy Pumpkin" scent from Bath & Body Works? The liquid soap is in that scent. They supposedly have a candle in that fragrance, but they tell me they sell out of it as soon as they get it in! I can believe it, as it smells wonderful!
Hope your autumn is "smelling wonderfully" too! :)

My Little October Angel ~ just arrived today ~ a gift from a dear friend who knew I'd been searching for one in memory of my own little October angel, Levi.
The boy angels are harder to find than the girls.
Isn't it so sweet, love his expression! He even has pink flowers on the base :)
Thank you to my friend, and thanks to all of you for stopping by! Hope you are having a lovely October!!

Close to Home..... Autumn in the Country.....
This farm stand is down the road just a bit. I love the way they set up their displays, and how they have a little lockbox using the honor system for their customers to buy their pumpkins, gourds, and hay bales.

These are the views I get to see every day, these barns are across the road from our home. I think they are especially pretty this time of year.
I hope you are enjoying this beautiful Autumn!
