Dutch Boys


I'm finding it harder and harder to find nice Dutch plates.
I found this one at an antique mall priced so low I took my glasses off and pressed it to my nose just to make sure I was reading it correctly.
And, I was!

Okay. Picture the wall pale yellow. I think everything I have will show up nicely against that.
If not, THGGM likes to paint!

Oh! Aren't They the Cutest?


I found this Dutch couple in an antique mall.
They were locked in a glass cabinet.
I rarely look into glass cabinets, because it usually means 'expensive'.
But, they weren't. Not at all.
They were cheap.
After all, they ARE Dutch.

Which means they are thrifty.
I haven't found a permanent home for them yet.
They do look rather at home on the shelf over the stove.
Someday, the wall color will be a butter cream yellow - very neutral.

I Love Fall! Beautiful, Beautiful, Fall!


I haven't done all of the fall decorating I intend to, but I have a start!

We already bought our Christmas present for this year.
It's the two-sided clock, hung between the living room and dining room.
Two for the price of one.
