Thought I would share some of my pumpkins around the house. I keep meaning to get outside and take some Autumn photos, but every time I have some time, it is a gloomy rainy day.
Although today it is a gorgeous day, so I will be sharing outside photos later.
I have to start out this fine Monday morning by thanking all who have left such sweet comments and all who have visited my shop. This has been quite a journey so far, and as long as I have this desire to create, and what I make, makes people smile, I will be on this journey for awhile.
Okay--back to the pumpkins. The one in the photo above was a find one day while I was out with Abby. How can you pass up a PINK pumpkin? Love it (and so does a certain little girl who loves pink)
This beauty is sitting in an old iron stone wash basin on my coffee table.
Love love love the color.
These two sit on my favorite table in the entryway of my house. I'm a sucker for white pumpkins and every shade in between!
All the orange pumpkins are outside. We picked those up yesterday with the kids. We usually get to the pumpkin patch to pick our own, but this year we were short on time. We picked up a bushel of apples and our pumpkins from our favorite farmers market yesterday. And I took a few photos of the kids which I will share later this week.
In the mean time, I'm off to work downstairs in my studio. I have an order to pack,
Silver Bella swaps, an apron to work on and posie pockets to create!
Good thing I'll be busy this week, my girls left this morning for outdoor school. They will be gone until Thursday! Doesn't that seem like such a long time? I miss them already!(sigh)
Hope you all have a beautiful Fall Monday!
Just a quick little sneak peek at one of my swaps for Silver Bella. They have all been shipped and are waiting at the hotel. 
We leave for Silver Bella on Wednesday and my supplies are packed and ready to go.
Fabrics and millinery in my favorite shades.
Bits, baubles and buttons.
Silver German glass glitter and mica.
And of course many ribbons, trims and lace.
It has been one big whirlwind around here with preparations for Silver Bella, which by the way, is next week. Yikes! So excited!
Dorothy Mae is wearing mine which is finally finished and ready to be packed carefully in my suitcase.
I stitched snippets of fabric, ribbon, and felt. Added a pink velvet pocket, pom pom trim, buttons and lace. I used some lace that I have saved from my Nanny, a beautiful yellow button my mom brought back for me from England, and a big rhinestone button I found the day we all went flea marketing. All of us (Cammy, Hope, Gabrielle) picked one out together specifically for our aprons. We also pick one out for Jen, because she wasn't with us. Can't wait to see yours, Jen!
So, my apron is full of things that make me happy , and the fact that I was able to spend a day with two amazing people, working on them together, makes it even more special.
A memory to cherish forever!
Thanks girls!
Hmmm it is such a big decision---big orange pumpkin or small orange pumpkin?
trekking through the maze of pumpkins.
"see mine---I'm so proud!"
All orange pumpkins resting on the front step.
You gotta love orange---this time of the year!
