I wrote the other day about needing motivation to clean my house. While I was in the midst of cleaning, I found some items that I had tucked away some time earlier. I wanted to use these items to decorate but my small house didn’t really have the space to display these things.
When I went outside to switch over laundry, I began to realize that I was looking a blank canvas that needed a little decorating so I brought the inside…out. ~
Plates on the side of the garage~
Little platters and a colander in a shelf by the kitchen door ~
A decorative bowl filled with some flowers amongst the flower pots ~
A sweet little teapot hiding in the gladiolas as we await their blooming this summer ~
I have to tell you how much I enjoyed this post. It has inspired me to decorate my front porch a little.
ReplyDeleteI love plates too! I had 4 blue willow plates from my great grandmother and I broke one last week! It was just a plate, but it was so heartbreaking for me.
Thanks, Amanda! This little blue willow plate was in a collection of some that I had gotten antique shopping. All of the others broke and I put this one away because it made me a little sad. I can completely understand being upset especially since they are from your great grandmother.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you'll see this question so I may come to your blog to ask ~ what kind of camera do you use? I'm using a point and click (though I really want a good manual digital camera but it will have to be later). I've been meaning to ask for a while. I'm having problems with mine and picking the right settings to get an infocus picture (especially in low light). I really wish that I could control it myself! But I'm thankful for this camera ~ it is a good little point and click...I just need to work with it some more!
My camera("s) story is a long one. but in a short story. I have 2...The first one my husband purchased 4 years ago:
ReplyDeleteNikon D-50
My second one purchased last fall:
Nikon D-3000.
They are both about the same. Before I started homeschooling a year ago I was into some "on the side"photography and last summer my shutter went out on the D-50. I was scheduled to do wedding pictures in just a couple of months and was having a hard time finding someone to fix my D-50 because I would have to send it off.
I was forced to buy a second one for this purpose.
I will try to do a blog post this week on cameras. I've had a couple of folks ask about camera stuff
