As promised, some White Wednesday photos from my trip to Madison last week!
I just laughed when I saw this wall at Fontaine!
What a clever idea!
These "mounts" are made of white cardboard.
Saw this pretty thing at Rowe Pottery,
along with these beautiful white works of art!
And some of my own Whites!
Posted pics of this shelf in the previous post, but LOVE it too much to not show it again! I just placed vintage sheet music against the back of the shelf (not attached in any way), and added the lady statuette and boot vase draped with pearl beads.
I did some rearranging of the bookshelves this past weekend as well.
I put the family pictures that were spread around the room on one shelf.
Then I pulled out my tea set my husband gave me for one of our anniversaries several years ago (wish I could remember which one it was...). This set is from the Mud Pie collection. He found it on one of our weekends up in Door County. This is my favorite tea set that I own!
This bookcase is on the other side of the doorway. I decided to move the topiary (available in my Etsy shop!) and my fat birds from around the piano to the top of the case. The middle shelf has my pics of my beautiful daughters when they were wee little ones, and one of them together this past Christmas.
The pillow is from my grandmother. I think she made it from a table runner and a pillow case ~ there is a couple layers in there. It is embroidered on the front, but there is a tear along the bottom, so I keep it up high and out of reach of little dogs that like to chew on soft things! The plate is a thrift find.
And the middle shelf is a tribute to my mom! That's her in the picture and the bowl is one she used as a child. She loves and collects teddy bears so whenever I see a cute teddy I think of Mom!
Thanks for bearing with another long post!
Check out Faded Charm for more White Wednesday participants!
Thanks for stopping by!
Have a great day!
Warmly,
Lori

I LOVE the cardboard mounts...esp. the moose! Don't know why but I have a thing for moose. I love to see them in the wild and always look for them.
absolutely delightful I just love those hilarious cardboard mounts! Happy, Happy Easter Whites to you...
Your bookshelves are looking great. I like all the photos grouped together. Those cardboard mounts are really cool too. If only my husband liked those instead of the real ones.
Happy WW!
Kathleen
Thanks for all the pictures, I love the white pottery. Have to say those cardboard mounts were really interesting!
Take care, Sue
Lori,
Thanks for the visit.
Re the mini match boxes: We get them at a local Grocery/dept store, Fred Meyer. I would just check the big grocery stores and see if you can find them.
The ones I have this time aer the store brand name ones and they were even a few cents cheaper htan the others. Less than $2.00 for 10 boxes. So fun to play with.
Be sure to check out the new Pink ones on Pink Saturday.

PS
Be sure to tell me if you make some. I want to show them off! =)
SWEET WW PHOTOS! I LOVE THE FACT THAT YOUR GRANDMOTHER MADE A PILLOW OUT OF A TABLE RUNNER AND A PILLOW CASE! IT REMINDS ME THAT REPURPOSING THINGS IS NOTHING NEW! WHEN OUR GRAND PARENTS AND PARENTS DID IT, IT WAS OUT OF NECCESITY. NOW IT'S ON ART FORM!
I LOVE THAT YOU STILL LEAVE COMMENTS ON MY BLOG.
HAPPY EASTER, JUDY
I am so glad that you stopped by and left a comment about the baby dish.
I love the graphics on the one that your mom used. What a sweet memory piece to have.
