Thrift store inspiration...
I'm loving my new pillows! I found these two beautiful pillowcases at two different thrift stores recently and was so thrilled that they go together so perfectly! The colors are so pretty and warm and cozy! So perfect for fall! They inspired me to get out my red transferware collection!I think all the different shades of red and the different patterns look great mixed together. Some pieces are old and some are new. This little creamer is one of my favorite vintage pieces!
The gorgeous floral lace (below) was one of my birthday presents. Isn't it wonderful?This pretty toile covered hat box is another favorite treasure of mine. I have a lot of favorite things, don't I? Ha ha! Maybe a few too many? But how can you have to many pretty things? If only I had an extra room or two to store it all in instead of my poor overstuffed closet!
Hope you are all getting outside and enjoying this wonderful fall weather! As you can see, my boys certainly have been!Michelle xoxo

Michelle,
I love your "lovlies"! I collect brown transferware, but I love it all. It's nice to see that someone else loves color instead of all white! Don't get me wrong, I love white, but I don't have it all over my house. I don't have that much time to clean :).
Your boys are so cute......

Your red and white is such a lovely touch for Fall. Reminds me of the apples ripening now. The tranferware is so pretty. You really were lucky to find such pretty pillow covers, because they are perfect!

What great finds! Love the cabbage Rose fabric and I LOVE red transferware. I have blue in my dining room but have wanted some red and white for my kitchen.
