Where has all the warm weather gone? I wanted to get photos from out in my garden today, but it is just too cold and windy out there. I guess those posts will just have to wait. So on to plan B. I was able to go to a couple garage sales on Friday and a Flea Market on Sunday last weekend and found a few goodies. I'm always looking for old papers and got lucky to find a bunch from a table that was 50% off. Funny how when I'm out junking I seem to find lots of the same thing. This weekend was shells, bottles, books and old papers. The three little cast iron urns were perfect for holding some moss balls I had picked up at the craft store a while back. As I was going through my stash today I had some fun playing around with my new finds. Enjoy! xoxo K.

Hi Kathleen, the coral and magazine cover under the cloche is amazing! and the urn full of shells is gorgeous! Living in the midwest I love shells but never think to group them together en masse. You've put together a great vignette.

Such a great combo. I can never find enough shells. Looks terrific with your urns and ephemera. Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteBonjour Kathleen,
ReplyDeleteI just love decorating with white items. You cant go wrong. Problem is that my husband and children are into colors especially my girls. There does not seem to be enough pink and purple in this world to satisfy them LOL I'm a new follower. I love your ideas of putting seashells in an antique white urn. Its all beautiful. Merci for sharing!
