Black Tree Goes White...AND...Last hurrah for the elegant pumpkins!
Many of you will remember my black dead tree from Halloween. Well, I couldn't bear to throw it out, so I took it out to the backyard, sprayed it white, and did this to it.
Below, is the Pottery Barn inspiration for my apothacary jar, two photos down.
The pumpkins came down today, only to be promoted to the Thanksgiving table. I loved the effect. : ) *Someone asked about my dishes. They came from Mervyn's. But I got them on clearance a few years ago. : ( Sorry. The green goblets are from Walmart, last year.
okay, now I'm going to have to do that with my tree. I used it for Halloween and Thanksgiving. It's not as big as yurs but it will do. Thanks for the idea. Your table was absolutely beautiful! I wish I had your talent. Janis
I love your website!!! You have such beatiful and creative ideas! Your thanksgiving table is gorgeous....was wondering where you got your dishes? I've been looking for a new set forever and can't find exactly what I want.
Oh my goodness! Everything is so so pretty! I just bought some of those "joy", "noel" ortaments last week. You are giving me a great idea as to what to do with them.
Wow, wow, wow!! That picture in your header is absolutely amazing!!! Just gorgeous! Everything looks so Merry and Bright. You are so very very talented. Why didn't more of that rub off on me?
I did the same thing! I was out spray painting yesterday...it has been 60 degrees here! I put my "tree" in an old galvanized pot and filled it with ornaments. Great way to recycle girl....it is gorgeous!!!!!!!! cherry
Actually about that PHOTO! Sara was taking candid photos one night while the whole Fam was at Chick-fil-A. I decided to use it because it made me look younger. When my married daughter ,Emily, saw it she said ever so sweetly (really), "Ah Mom, you're not wearing any make-up in that photo." I said, "Yeah, but it makes me look younger than I am." I chose younger with no make-up as opposed to older (with) make-up. Go figure.
