Fall in the Dining and Sitting Room

Last week, I shared my dining room hutch and chalkboard with you.

This week,  I thought I'd share the rest of the dining room 

and the adjoining sitting room with you.

The dining room:

I found the Canada Dry crate at an antique show.

I was so thrilled!

My Dad was the manager of Canada Dry locally,

so the crate is for sentimental reasons.

Although knowing my Dad, he's looking

down at me from heaven saying,  

"You paid money for that?  
I had dozens of them you could have had for free!"

Of course, he would be right, but those free crates are no where to be 

found now.  It took me a long time to view this kind of stuff
and not think of it as junk.  Now, after all these years,
I see the value.  

Anyway,  I filled my beloved crate with lots of  fall goodies.  

Just a note:  the crate has our city & state stamped on the side.

Who knows?  Maybe my dad handled this very crate way back when.

The sitting room:

My favorite blue dresser got the Fall treatment.

I got the suitcase at the same antique show where I found the crate.

(I made a good score that day!)

A vignette for the coffee table.

I even added a little Fall to my white wire shelf.

Isn't that little pumpkin painting so cute?

It was an Etsy purchase.

I hope you enjoyed touring this part of our home.

Next up:  

My Fall mantel!
