~ Fall Is In The Air ~

Hello, I hope you all had a great weekend. We went to the flea market this morning and Fall was definitely in the air for Southern California. It was 73 degrees and the crowd of shoppers were pleasant to shop with. We picked up a small Indian beaded pincushion in the shape of a boot. It was hidden in a box of Christmas ornaments. I was glad to purchase it for 8 bucks.

I also wanted to share some more oil paintings from our collection. The oils in our collection probably date from the 1870s to 1915. I luv the donkeys and the little burro has a cute look to his face.

These little piggy's have the cutest expressions on there faces. And if you can look closely you can see the little pigs curly tail in the left of the painting.

This little oil painting of the chick is on board. I had to pay a pretty penny for it on E-bay during a bidding war. But we are glad to have it as part of our collection.

I just love this primitive oil painting of the two horses. I really like the white horse standing so proud.

And now I come to some more of our Fall decorations. The paper mache pumpkins are from the 30s through the 50s.

The noise makers are tin and might be 50s or 60s. Then there is the hat from the 20's Mr. Pumpkin is wearing. There is also the black cat jack o Latern. And the little Jack-o-Laterns small party nut cups that are also paper mache. Aren't they cute. And also some more antique postcards, most of our postcards date from 1904-1915.

Thanks Raymond for doing a great job decorating the entry way to the house and also the breakfast room. Today I will be linking up to ~ Nifty Thrifty Tuesday ~ over at ~ Costal Charm ~ And also for a ~ Fall Decor Link Party ~ hosted by Kristin. Hope you have a good time seeing all the different post.

Have a good week and see again soon.............Julian
