Oh My, This is Random
My fall decorating is absolutely pitiful. You're looking at the extent of it so far. I have no idea what's come over me but I can't muster up the energy to go all out this year. Anyone relate? I've never been big on Halloween decor but have always decorated for fall. Perhaps there's still time to snap out of it.
Apple picking was on our agenda this weekend. It was a bit rainy and so fallish & cozy. The Man and I went to an apple tasting which is very similar to a wine tasting where they start with the most tart and work their way up the sweetness scale. Surprisingly, we liked the tart apples and bought a 1/2 peck of "Big Greens". Not to be confused with Granny Smiths or so I was told. In any case, they were delish!
Last month I bought these antique French agriculture bonds at a flea market and have been meaning to frame them. I've been working on a gallery wall of French photos and ephemera for what seems like f.o.r.e.v.e.r. One step closer to finishing now.
And here's a hodge podge of the miscellaneous tidbits I've picked up on my travels…
- Antique price signs to use as cheese markers and drink signs for parties.
- Ticking pillows, actually bought 4.
- Very large zinc wire basket. Use to be determined.
- The letter "H" just because.
- Vintage comb carrier and metal wash wringer sign for laundry room. Currently in reno phase.
- Hooks and bits for said laundry room.
- A dozen marble eggs to make my chickens jealous.
Which reminds me…is it about time for a Chicken Chronicles update?
