More Fall "Eye Candy"...


HA! Gotcha!....have you all seen this halloween eye candy?
I got some in a Boo Bag and thought it was too cute not to share!...

I recently discovered that I had these photos for the Fall Open House and somehow didn't use these on that post!

I love looking out of this window and watching the leaves turn colors...










One of the many garage sale finds that have found a new life in my home. Hubby attached the top of my old sofa table to the old singer sewing machine base that I so happily brought home for a couple of dollars ... Just love it. Reminds me of my Mom's.



This light up pumpkin puts forth such a wonderful glow..


Oh my, I found this great pumpkin tea kettle this summer for $2 on one of my "sailin" expeditions... I couldn't help myself!








I know you've seen this one before, but you know , she thinks this blog is all about her, so, shhhh... let her have her day.



In my family room we have a huge built in , so I have enjoyed "having" to fill them up with whatever strikes my fancy!







The mosaic table and stool were another "steal".... $20 I think I payed for them at church bazaar! I love the old world look that it has... kinda makes me think of Portugal.



You can see the tile work better in this photo. See these birds (not sure what they are, but I like them) were bought for $1 at an auction... (I really wanted the $400. chair, but went home happy as a clam with my birds...well, kinda...















........ So there's some Fall eye candy for ya!

Well, aren't you just witty with your "eye" candy? Too, too cute. Your pictures are beautiful. Your home looks so welcoming. I love that lighted pumpkin. And what a deal on that tile-top table! I'm coming to shop with you. laurie

Tardevil said...

I'm with Laurie!!! Field trip to Santa's!!! Love the lighted pumpkin...have never seen one else it would be in Tar's place too! My mom had one of those sewing machines too, but gave it to her SIL...in other words...I won't get it back. A true Boo! One of my favorite things is the pumpkin "snowman" on the bookshelf. Stinky (isn't that your BFF's name?) is just too cute. I have to come over almost every day to see the cute photos where he/she turns his/her head.

Tardevil said...

Sorry I rambled...lack of sleep. Meant to say, love the birds, the view & the tiled table as well. Good night!

I don't know how I lost you for a while, when adding some folks to my blog list...silly me accidentally removed a few in the process I guess....but I found you over at Diane's so I am catching up on all the prettiness here.
