~ Autumn pastels ~

(All photography by me)
This year my Autumn decor is softer and filled with white pumpkins and pastels...


I love the pastel colours in the millinery garland...
the creamy white roses and white pumpkins....
the light green chippy lantern adds the perfect touch and the chippy blue farm table was a $5 goodwill find a few years ago.


So simple yet so pretty to me....





Have a wonderful weekend everyone and thanks so much for visiting..
xo,
Rachel

~ Finally Fall ~


( All photography by me , Autumn 2011)

I'm so happy it's finally Fall...
My favourite time of year.
I took these photos last Autumn and I thought I would share them again.
Yesterday my family and I went to a local farmers market and bought pumpkins..large cornstalks to line our entryway and beautiful mums in shades of the season.

 I had fun creating this vignette last year.
This year I bought alot of the pure white baby pumpkins and will share photos of those soon.



I always love decorating for Fall...lots of pumpkins,cornstalks,mums.
And of course lots of pumpkin and vanilla spice candles.
How do you like to decorate for Fall?
Have a wonderful day!

Rachel

~ Beautiful Millinery ~


(All photography by me)
Hi friends
I recently found this beautiful pastel millinery garland on etsy. It was originally on a really odd looking vintage hat so I removed all the millinery flowers and got rid of the hat. I love how beautiful they are.Perfect for my photos and inspirations.

My favourite colour palette....

I found these beautiful florentine frames at TJ Maxx for only $4.99 each.
They are perfect photos of my sons.
Love my boys....

Have a wonderful day and thanks for visiting!!

~ A new find ~ Have a wonderful weekend! ~


(All photography by me)

A recent vintage find..a very shabby and large old rhinestone pin...love it on my inspiration board.
Have you noticed how "in" old pins and brooches are right now? Ive seen a few fashion segments recently and they are clustering them on jackets..purses etc. You can find them at thriftshops for only a few dollars a piece.

( my boys )
Have a wonderful holiday weekend everyone!!
We are enjoying family time at the beach this weekend.....what are your plans?
