Today, I started cleaning out....My bedroom space is feeling to crowded with stuff....By stuff i mean pretties......although they are pretty...just not so pretty cluttered together...I'm feeling a little more on the less is much more.  I go through this every fall, although I'm tending to clear through more and more....I am leaning toward more simple...clean and crisp displays....where the beauty in whatever piece it is, stands on its own.......

I'm already enjoying the shorter days, love it getting dark earlier.......

Hope everyone is having a happy Monday........

Some photos...of our cottage....

So much fun....love....

       Good morning,  what a beautiful morning it is....i have been very busy lately, just finishing up my daughter's  bridal shower, and now planning her wedding ,(if you ever get a chance to do it, please do, it has been so much fun....alot of work, but worth every minute of it) it brings me such joy.....here is a picture from the shower i had for her at our home.....
