~White Wednesday # 73~


I hope everyone is enjoying their day. It has been a typical Fall day here with cloudy skies a little bit of wind and a lot of rain! A perfect day to stay indoors and try and get some things done or read a good book. Speaking of good books....I'm going to share a few of my favorite. I love the look of the coverless books with the old binding showing especailly stacked together and mixed in with all your favorite goodies. Enjoy! xoxo K.


How can you go wrong with them added in with old architectural elements?



I wanted to thank all of you who left such positive comments about my booth. I'm really enjoying it and will be heading up tomorrow to fluff and take up a few more things I found at the flea market on Sunday.

    Anyway, Kathleen your vignettes are always so pleasing to the eye. Keep sending that fall weather my way.

  15. Hi Kathleen, thanks again for the lovely linky, in fact I look forward to coming home after a long day at work, and posting for the party. I think in all of blogland yours is one of the most favorites. I love what you did with the books, and I adore the ball finial you're displaying! You have a way of adding old, vintage real elements to your displays. They always look as though you gathered them up as if rescued instead of forking out huge amounts of money to get that look. I think you truly love antiques and one can tell, thanks again for the inspiration

  37. Oh I love your pictures.

    I am sad today because google has not updated my picture storage so I can play .
    I paid $5.00 for more storage space over 72 hours ago and google said after 24 hours i can access my account. Can anybody offer advice?

  44. What beautiful vignettes. Is it wrong that I like the one with your black clock the best? Seems sort of contradictory. I have to get busy looking at all the participant's posts now.

  45. I LOVE the look of coverless books and yours are so pretty. Is it wrong to yank off the covers?? lol
    Thanks so much for doing WW all these months Kathleen!!

  47. I'm adoring your Architectural Salvage pieces! *swoon* I can only imagine how it must have looked attached to a magnificent old building! I'm always thankful that some Architectural masterpieces survive in spite of the buildings lost.

  49. I really like the look, too. But,I just can't seem to bring myself to the place where I can rip the covers off of books.

    Thanks for hosting the fun party.

    I have a party, too, and would love to have you join me. You can link up here:
