A Little Early Fall Antiquing

Yaay! I have finally been able to head over to my favorite antiquing spot...the Queen of Hearts in Alpharetta, Georgia! :-) And for me this is the perfect time to go with fall juuuust around the corner...my favorite season! Come see what I found!

I know some of you are not quite ready for fall so I am going to ease you in by starting with some of my favorites...blue and white! Isn't this a pretty tureen?

 I collect five finger vases so I was intriqued by this six finger vase...unusual!

 I also collect Red Cliff ironstone so I lingered over this creamer...but I already have this one.

 Nothing speaks to me like vintage silverplate and I love the details on this covered serving piece!

And you know the francophile in me fell for these unique Eiffel Tower scissors!

I considered these wonderful old bookends, too. I used to collect houses so they were calling my name!

Deer just say fall to me and carry on over into Christmas so these deer head napkin rings could get a lot of use.

I always pause at the copper. I think I have shared it with you several times. That usually means it will be in my future! lol

 And Outlander fans...here's a Jack Randall look-alike portrait! Do you see the resemblance? I didn't look at the tag. Perhaps it is intended that way!

 And now it's time to venture into fall! :-) I am going to ease you in just in case you are one of those "I want to hold on to summer" people. I love the way this crockery vase suggests fall with its colors and has a frenchy touch...great for sunflowers!

I have never thought about using clove and orange pomanders in the fall but they are perfect! I usually associate them with Christmas but they are great pumpkin stand-ins until the real things arrive. I love those braided corn husk "ears" of corn complete with silks!

I am going to ease you into pumpkins with these wonderful chenille versions. I have a feeling I'll be looking for old bedspreads at Goodwill!

What a fun way to display pumpkins....an old chick feeder! I need to get mine out!

I think my little grands would love this metal jack-o'-lantern! It would be a great addition to the porch for Halloween!

 And you've gottta love the legs on this little cutie!

Want to know what came home with me? Another pretty white tureen! I'm going to have to control myself because I'm getting quite the collection!

And stay tuned because I have some fun fall posts planned now that my shoulder is in better working order...and just in time for my favorite season!
