Not anymore.
I think I'm done decorating. Well, almost. It seems that making the season's
come alive is an ongoing process.
I change things..putter around, take away, add, and it's not that I am not satisfied,
It's just that it's fun. I know that you know exactly what I mean!
This large brass candlestick was a Saturday garage sale find. This one is not going to get painted.
The is a little lever that raises and lowers the candle.
This small one was also found at the same garage sale. I bought both of them for a dollar each.
SUCH a deal!
A closer view of my painting. That artist did not have anything on ebay this year. I am thankful I have one of her pieces.
Zelda is new to my collection this year too. LOVE this Witchy poo...love her!
M. Crow is from last year. These two bonded..so I keep them together. He seems to want to watch out for her, help her across streets, that sort of thing. It's understandable. :)
..c..c...c...candy! Oh well...
These two hang out together too...(where'd the Fall leaves go? Oops..on the floor.. :)
Just pretend the bottle of Windex isn't there...ok?
I would do it for you... :) The shawl was a gift.
Love and hugs,
Mona
I want to thank our hostess Marty @ A STROLL THRU LIFE for this fun meme.
P.S.
I am now SEVENTYFIVE YEARS OLD as of this Saturday and have entered the Winter of my life.
No big deal, but I am sort of proud I'm still here and more than that
I am truely grateful!
Well, HAPPY BIRTHDAY from all of us.

My dear friend, you are always welcome and I would be so happy if you knocked on the door, even if it was in the middle of the night. Richard from My Old Historic House.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Mona! You may be 75 but you have a joy for life and it shows in your home and your writings. Never change! Love the cat and all your Halloween goodies! I am afraid the jars of candy at my house would never make it long!
ReplyDeleteFirstly, HAPPY 75th BIRTHDAY! Remember, you're actually only 65, since 40 is the new 30, 50 the new 40 and so on! So you haven't even reached your Autumn yet and still have a long way to go till you get to your Winter :)
ReplyDeleteYour Autumn decorations look marvellous and I definitely didn't see any Windex in any of these lovely photographs, even though I zoomed in and used my magnifying glass. I love your sense of humour :)
Big hug! xoxo
Lovely Decoration! Lovely House!
ReplyDeleteLove you!
