Another 'Summer' has passed us by and the time has come to welcome 'Fall'.
Autumn in New England brings cold nights and fields filled with their final harvests.
A peaceful walk in the yard provided me with a bounty of natural elements to use on the mantel.
My 'Million Bells' hanger bloomed most of the summer in this galvanized basket. I decided to reuse it to greet the new season with a simple gathering of pine cones.
I have a thing for vintage metal tools and parts and I like to find different ways to display them.
Their worn surfaces whisper to me about their well used past and the hands that once guided them.
I found this weathered wood architectural molding at one of my favorite antique stores. The shop is called '
Log Cabin Antiques' and the owner 'Lynn' is just the sweetest person. Her shop is filled with wonderful and unique barn finds and antiques. Be sure to visit her shop if you are ever in the area.
I am of the mindset that small details make a big difference.
This wonderful antique tool box was a Christmas gift for my husband several years ago.
The paint is 'chipped' perfection.
Only time can create this perfect patina.
Another find from '
Log Cabin Antiques' - a little lantern that looked right at home hanging from our antique wagon steps.
This is my favorite time of year! Fall has arrived in New England and I am savoring every moment and hope you are as well.
Linking up to the following parties:
