This is my "new" pedestal bowl. Do remember where it came from? If you thought: "Bad" Thrift Day--you were right!
A reminder of the "before." Admit it, the pedestal candlestick and carved bowl were meant for one another.
I forgot about this pretty pumpkin from last year. It was tucked behind a bunch of stuff in my pantry. (My pantry is kind of like Mary Poppins' carpet bag.) It takes on such importance when perched on this candle holder.
I usually don't distress my items enough. This time, I was more aggressive with my sanding off of the paint on my new bowl.
"Miss Peepers" seems to be a camera hog. She hopped around to get in as many shots as she could.
Do you remember The Little Pumpkin that Could? Here she is adding just enough subtle color to keep my arrangement from looking too flat.
This is my absolute-ist favorite-ist shot (above)!
Doesn't it seem like after awhile, your blog post adventures and misadventures come together? Here's what's shown: Tray, Runner, Pumpkin, Mini Pumpkins, Thrift, Cloche.

Oh it is absolutely stunning. Love the bowl and candle all painted and distressed perfectly. The pumpkins are gorgeous and of course the cloche stole my heart. Fabulous display. You really need to link this to my Table Top Tuesdays. It is awesome. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteYou always deliver great table scapes! And I did notice your little bird was not camera shy, but why should she be, she is so cute.

Love it! Also, the Mary Poppins pantry! LOL! You amaze me with what you "see" in thrift store items! And you're right!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat tablescape!
I love the shabby white decor. Isn't it fun when you find some little treasure that you have forgotten about. That pumpkin is adorable. I have a couple of similar ones and wonder where I got them and why I didn't get more. Nice Table Top.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for linking this lovely post up. It is gorgeous. Hugs, Marty

Love the cream theme, I too love that pumpkin bowl. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome transformation you made with the bowl and candlestick, they truly DO look perfect together! The display is lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the inspiration!

Did the bird come white? I'd love to know if you did something to make it so adorable. I'm thinking I need a pantry.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to go back and check out your post about the bowl and candlestick. Apparently, you have married the two of them. The result is perfection, especially with your distressed painting job. This is such a delightful vignette. laurie
ReplyDeleteYou put everything together so well. It always looks so effortless but, I know, it takes real talent to get that look. Beautiful -- as always!

I just found your blog today and I love it! You have given me so many fantastic ideas, and have inspired me to RUN to my local thrift store. My mother-in-law is visiting for Thanksgiving, and I think even SHE will be impressed with my new decor - thanks to YOU!
ReplyDeleteThis looks great, Kim! I love the way the bowl and pedestal combo turned out. Your ceramic pumpkin works so well here, too. I love seeing the different surfaces and textures you've incorporated. You really did a lovely job here!
