Happy Halloween!

Wishing you all a fun filled day and evening on this Halloween! It's rainy and suppose to drop in temperature tonight with wind here.Not really the perfect weather for trick or treating but I'm sure the kids will have fun anyways!!I love this collage of old postcards that my friend Suze Que has made! The vintage postcards are the best!The vibrant colors and details are just perfect!Don't forget to turn your clocks back this evening too! Yay an extra hour of sleep!! Although I don't like it getting darker earlier. It's a bit depressing.Oh well..C'est La Vie!

La Beaute'

Happy Thursday All! I've been creating lately. I created a new necklace which I call La Beaute'! I think it's a beauty. It's made out of vintage glass,translucent beads and an antique brass chain with a vintage shabby chic pin as the pendant.I took the photos this morning and was pleased how they turned out. I'm really liking taking pictures with hubby's camera!Well I'll show you the photos and let you see for yourselves!This necklace is listed in my Etsy shop.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek at my new creation! Have a great day!

Starting to change

As I took my morning run I could see a bit of change in the color of the leaves. My subdivision sits up on a hill and almost looks like we are in the mountains. You need to close your eyes and look up to the tree tops! I took these shots a little while ago and it was cloudy. The sun is peaking out now but I thought I would show you some of the foliage in my neighborhood.

This shot is actually my front yard. We have alot of hard woods mixed in with other trees.

So pretty! The contrast of the colors of these leaves. I love the changing of the leaves and all the colors of fall!Wishing you all a great day!

My own Boulangerie

Nothing like the smell of Chocolate Croissants baking in the oven! Then sinking your teeth into a warm melting chocolate bread while sipping your coffee! That's exactly what I'm doing this morning..These croissants taste like they came from a Boulangerie in France! Maybe even better! Fresh out of the oven! Should I tell you my secret recipe? I think I shall because these are the best!

The Chocolate Croissants came from Trader Joe's! You need to let them rise overnight and bake in the morning. I highly reccomend them! Hubby loved them too and he's french. From now on I'll be making these when we feel like Chocolate Croissants! Yum!Have a great Sunday!

A Room with a View

This is one of my favorite finds at a garage sale!! Actually my hubby found it...I believe it was $10.00. It's an iron wheel. Very heavy and I hung it on my dining room window/office area. My desk sits underneath it with the laptop and this is where I sit while on the computer! I love this view! It looks out into our backyard which is a sea of English Ivy. It has totaly taken over! We have a huge corner lot so the kids play on the side and front yard or at other kids yards. Sad I know but until we do something about the ivy it's pretty to look at! No mowing either. Anyways...I put vintage postcards of France in the wheel and a fall hanging in the center. It's a pretty architectural element to the room! Always be on the look out for these things at garage/yard sales. Think of the possibilities!

So I just wanted to show you one more time me and my new hand bag! Have a fantastic day!
