Vintage Inspiration Friday #4

I've had this little vintage step ladder at my booth for awhile to use in a pinch.

If a piece of furniture sells, it takes up the slack until I can bring in something else.

But since I've been looking for ideas for my front porch

 I grabbed this the last time I was there,

and brought it home for a try out.

Here's my inspiration for the ladder display.

And while it didn't make it for the front porch,

I thought it was fun for the sunroom.

Love those corn husks and old crock jug in the book image.

Oooohhh, to have a front porch like this.

When I was growing up

 our old farmhouse had a large front and wrap around porch.

I'd love to have one now;

such great memories.

Here's the book that I'm having so much fun with!

 I really love me some black kitties...

well, I'm fond of any kitty,

but I've had about 4 "Blackies" in my life.

I know... can't say I'm the most original when it comes to names.

I just love black cat images.

 

And I had a great time at the local pumpkin stand as you can see...

more on the front steps.

If you remember, I will be having a monthly give away for the party goers.

So one more chance to win by joining in this weekend.

Hope you all are having fun decorating for Fall.

I found some urns for the front porch,

and it's now officially

"Wonder-Fall".

Pictures coming soon!

Hope you'll link up and share what's inspiring you this week!

Thank you so much for all the well wishes and prayers for my family

in the passing of my Father-in-law.

I appreciate each one of you!

love,

Debra

Out and About for Inspirational Home Fall Open House

Fall has arrived at

 Inspirational Home

here in Springfield!

Last weekend's Open House was a magical event.

Friday evening we were met with this fantastic arbor on the grounds.

And inside, Halloween fun and autumn accessories

 were tucked in every nook and cranny.

Enjoy the tour!

If you live nearby or plan on visiting Southwest Missouri

be sure to stop by

 Inspirational Home.

Debra Moore's great shop is always a fun destination.

I'm linking with Kathleen for White Wednesday

Be sure and stop by for all the wonderful whites.

On a personal note

 I wanted to let you know my Father-in-Law passed away this last week

after a long term diagnosis of Alzheimer's.

We are sorry to see him pass, but find great comfort that he is in Heaven.

I will still be hosting Vintage Inspiration Friday,

but it may take me a few days to get back with everyone and comments.

Please come and join in Thursday evening until Sunday at 6:00 PM.

Love to you all, I will be having a week full of love and family,

 love to you all,

Debra
