While we were in Greensboro, I asked DH to take me to the Replacement China store just east of town. I've wanted to visit this store for years. They thoughtfully have provided a lounge area at the back with comfy chairs and a TV, so DH could read his Kindle while I enjoyed the displays. …

Lemon Fresh Tablescape
Summer is here, and for some reason that makes me think of lemonade, which is funny because I rarely have lemonade. Perhaps it is the vibrant yellow color which speaks of sunshine and warmth, and lazy evenings in the rocking chairs on the veranda. Whatever the motivation, I have been collecting a few lemon items …
Asian Inspired Christmas Tablescape and Blog Hop
The beautiful Asian print on my new table runner becomes the base for a Christmas tablescape also Asian inspired. Something different for this year! I begin by covering the table with a burgundy color tablecloth, picking up the dark red in the Asian Inspired Christmas Table Runner I made just this week. It is placed …

Happy Pumpkins Tablescape and Recipes!
October is starting to finally cool off, and a crispness is coming into the air. Outside, the trees are just now starting to show a hint of color here and there, and it is time for a tablescape, this year with happy pumpkins! I got out my Halloween box and started playing with the pumpkins …

Vintage Fourth Tablescapes
This year, I thought I'd do my patriotic table with a vintage theme. I had these Bell canning jars and a vintage-style milk crate for inspiration. It would be something a bit different than the usual flags for July 4th. Plus, making the table fresh and new from previous years using only what I had …
Aka Kuroguro Table for Two
This month I am sharing posts that are Oriental inspired, on a variety of subjects. Although I like a full table, and I don't mind a bit of clutter during certain times of the year, this Japanese inspired table for two begins with simplicity. Aka Kuroguro means Red and Black, so it is the name …
January White
After the richness and clutter of the autumn season and the holidays, I like to begin the new year with a clean and fresh look, simple and pure. Last night we got about 3 inches of snow, and this morning the view out the front windows looks much like my header photo again, just not …
Thrifting and Estate Sale Scores, and an amazing story
It has been quite a while since I showed some of my thrifting and estate sale scores. It was a fruitful autumn season, LOL! There is a new auction house just south of Brevard, and the attendance isn't up yet so prices were really low! Plus there is a new thrift store in downtown Hendersonville …
