Sharing Shadymont, My Mountain Cottage

I recently bought this sweet little French basket, and love the look it gives to a vignette.  Here I have used it as a centerpiece for the table in the sun room.   I have filled it with white and cream doilies, a white bird, and a gold tassel.  I love the calmness it it exudes on the white crocheted table cloth. The Dollar Tree bird, painted white several years ago, is all nestled in the linens. I love the serenity of all white homes, but don't know if I could do it.  I do, however like to have areas where white dominates.  Nothing speaks softness like white.   Now, the basket holds Fall potpourri.   Simple, subtle, Fall softness and light.

On Friday, I decided I was in the mood to go antiquing and Hob Lobbing.  I found some great items at both places.  Who doesn't love to hear about treasures at a good price? First, I went to the antique shop, cause that's my favorite thing to do.  This place is huge, and has booth after booth of treasures.  Here is what I found there that now resides at Shadymont.   This sweet  vintage platter was $5.00.  All proceeds from this booth goes to charities.  I thought that was a great price. This lovely vase was $10.99.  I thought it was just darling. I added the roses after I got home. This lovely turquoise shell dish was $6.00.  My new favorite color keeps popping up here. Look at this sweet little fellow.  His colors just blended so well with the dish, and I knew he would also match the tin sign I got the other day.  He flew right in to my shopping cart. Get ready for this treasure..... ...
