Vintage Black Friday is here again hosted by Jill at Gypsy Brocante, and before fall slips away into a sea of Wonderful White Christmas, I thought I'd share a little impromptu vignette, that I pulled together on my coffee table in the sitting area of my lower level family area.
My favorite part of having booth space at a flea market is the ability to satisfy the urge to create vignettes. My house looks like a "store" at times, so I have to try to tone it down...hard, very hard! These are a few pictures of things I grabbed from around the house and "staged" here for some fun.
Here's a little black wagon with some fall produce, and a black gothic stand holding my big chippy chalk squirrel bank.
A great little vintage black floral tray holding nesting boxes, a black teapot "for one", and a fruit print that is usually in my kitchen.
Don't you just love the cut-outs
on this little gothic hexagonal stand?!!
Kind of has a Moroccan feel to it.
This is one of a set of very small "pocket books" that I found at a flea market this summer. It is collected poems of Edgar Allen Poe.
Now, I've got to get busy with some last minute
things since I have the kids coming from St. Louis and
things since I have the kids coming from St. Louis and
my husband's brother and his wife coming from Texas.
I'll see you in a few days.
Gots to love on my kids!!
Hope you are having a "Wonder-Fall" time of the year.
I know I am! I'm savoring every moment!

Have tons of fun with your family! Love the chippy squirrel and the black stand...very cool display. The only place I can do vignettes is on my porch...have a very small living area, and sweet hubby freaks if I get too much going on. Also manage a retail store, though, and get to go crazy with my window displays. Not sure the boss always "gets it" but she gives me free rein! happy Friday *elaine*
ReplyDeleteLove all of your vintage black goodies but my favorite is the black tray:) Enjoy the weekend with the family and I look forward to hearing about it and seeing pictures! Have a blessed day!

Hey Debra!
ReplyDeleteI will check out your link. I don't know what I would do without Faith...I love the Victorian Paper Piece too. It has it's original box, and inside with it, is feather tree garland and other paper fold outs... They were all stuffed in an attic, of an old East Amana Home...
'til next time,

Loved so much, where to start...the little Poe book. I collect them too. The wagon, CUTE. Love the tray with leaves, and those white suitcases in the background-I want them...Badly. Lisa
ReplyDeleteHi Debra!
ReplyDeleteLove all the "stuff" - the more the merrier I always say! What an adorable wagon, perfect for your fall displays.
I'd like one of those English conservatories on your previous post also - might as well think big for a wish list.
Have a great week! Hugs,Sherry
Deb every vignette looks so great. I think sometimes I treat my house like a shop too. I get carried away. Love the chippy squirrel and the book especially. The photo of the squirrel close up and with the white suitcases in the background was sooooooo good. Love shots like that.....made my knees weak!
ReplyDeleteHave a super time with your kids!!
