Quick Post & Reminder

Hi everyone.
I have added a little Fall to our kitchen island using my vintage dough bowl and other things I had stored away.

 

The Pottery Barn lanterns were purchased  last year when they were reduced by 70%.   I didn’t care for the black bottom so I just dry brushed them with gray craft paint. I used them this summer filled with seashells and the paint effect reminds me of driftwood.
The Open House Party will start this evening and I have another beautiful home to share.
I hope you will link up all the beautiful Fall decor I am seeing around blogland and any projects, recipes, great buys, ect. that you would like to share.
I have gotten some great reviews from those of you that have tried the homemade chalky paint and I would love to see your projects at the Open House Party.
Thanks for visiting and all the sweet notes you leave.  I truly appreciate each of you!
Hugs,
Sherry

  1. So stunning Sherry…love the idea of the paint for those lanterns…thanks for the idea:) Also thanks for the tip on the Highlands area…I kne about it, but with old age I had forgotten…I've been checking it out:) If you know of any great (cheap…you know me…thrifty is my middle name)places for antiques and vintage items for sale in that area, I would love to hear about them…thanks so much.

    Blessings,

  3. Sherry, Your dough bowl looks so welcoming and works beautifully with your counter top.
    Love, love your lanterns. I was thinking of dry brushing mine as they are a bit too dark for my liking. Thanks for the tip and thanks for the inspiration to do some Fall decorating.

  4. Beautiful touches for a beautiful kitchen.
    Alas…I don't put much on our eating bar as we use it as….well…for eating. :))
