Happy Thanksgivings!

Roses... reminiscent of summers past



Rose petals scattered around the house…



lovely in any setting 


My latest thrift store treasure... this pretty vintage Italian Florentine table… only $12.00—


I don’t know much about antiquing, but I did a little bit of research on the Internet and found out that this little Vintage table was originally part of a nested table set. Italian Florentine, gold gilt and hand painted on gesso over wood. This little table alone is sold for $84.00.  Now, that's exactly why I'm so madly in love with Mr. Goodwill Hunting! ;)  And aren't we all!


So, have you decorated your home for the holidays yet? The holidays are a wonderful time of the year. Wouldn't it be nice if we could all have amazing decorations and have thousands of Christmas lights beaming from our homes? I know you may find this hard to believe, but I don’t decorate much for the holidays. Only last year I bought my first Christmas tree ever. I have already decorated it and is looking marvelous embellished in beautiful Vintage ornaments. Found at our local Goodwill of all places... of course! No, I'm not a bit ashamed of saying this... not at all.

Have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving Day my friends!

  3. a wonderful table. Your first tree ever has me wondering if you always had your style or later. I know I became comfortable with my style only when I was a bit older.
    I tried them all.

  6. Hola Cielo, Lo cierto es que aun despues de secas esas rosas de tu jardin permanecen decorando tu hermoso entorno! La mesita por 12.00$ WoW!!! es una bendicion Cielo! Las he visto como dices aun mucho mas costosas! Y luce tan delicada en su rinconcito. Hoy estoy decorando para Navidad y creenme , es en verdad una terapia! Ademas de que nos alegra el alma! Te invito a mi otro blog , www.elartederosia.blogspot.com saludos, Rose Marie

  7. If I hadn't heard it from you own lips (fingers) I would not have believed that you never had a tree. I am curious as to why-cuz I think you have children...
    Anyway, I love your sweet little table. They are all the rage now and I see them all over. You could probably sell yours and make $$$!;>) But don't!!!

    Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving, Cielo- xo Diana
