I had a little fun playing
and taking a few photos the other day.
Nothing fancy or exciting…. just a bucket of hydrangeas
a found birds nest and a couple little pumpkins.
I took a few of the photos a little bit overexposed
Sometimes it washes the color out too much but sometimes it’s perfect.
This old drop leaf table was a flea find and it is so shabby with it’s worn paint, broken hinges and splitting wood. I love that when the leaves are down, the table is only about 8″ deep and can be
tucked against a wall easily.
I added a couple more colorful striped pumpkins for a few photos too -we don’t have
big white pumpkins here yet- just these small ones.
This mirror is one I have shared before~ it’s a favorite that I dragged out of the
basement of an abandoned antique store a few years back.
It was covered in huge amounts of dust which helped with keeping the price low 😉

It didn’t look like it was worth much and so the seller said
$3.00
$3.00
*Love.*
Just a quick post today~ the kids shared a head cold so
we have been laying low and I have been catching up more on blog
reading rather than blogging
🙂
See you this afternoon for Feathered Nest Friday!!

I love the over exposed picture. Take care of your little ones!
Tout comme vos enfants, j'ai attrapé un sacré rhume ! Il ne m'empêche pas d'admirer vos merveilleuses photos… Je vais seulement éviter de me retrouver face à votre joli miroir qui pourrait me renvoyer une image négative de moi-même aujourd'hui !
Il est préférable que je m'étonne devant vos sublimes compositions.
Gros bisous à vous.
Ah, Courtney, I am always calmed after I read your posts and view your pictures. You have quite a gift for imparting peace.
As always, gorgeous photos. Wow, that mirror was a steal at just $3 and doesn't it look perfect in the right setting.
This post is beautiful and I love your pictures as always.

Very pretty, Courtney! Your photography is beautiful!
That vignette is lovely – as always! I LOVE that mirror! I'd have snapped that up too!
Hope everyone is soon feeling much better!
The bargain mirror goes with the hydrangeas perfectly. The arrangement is a wonderful blend of fall and pastels. Refreshing white bucket, white pumpkins…. Love it all. Now I want to arrange my mantle…
Courtney, what a lovely vignette! I love seeing Fall items that are not traditional. Your photos are wonderful and what a find on the table! I hope you fell better soon!
Such a beautiful mirror to find for $3.00! Very pretty vignette. ~ Maureen

I love the simplicity, Courtney. That's how I decorate. Hydrangeas are a favorite, and of course I love the frame. A mainstay with me.
Stunning! Love all of your touches!
