I had planned to share my new front door decor, but alas, like many residents of the MS Gulf Coast, all loose outside objects have been secured as we await the arrival of Hurricane Isaac. Instead, I thought I would share with you a set of my favorite dinnerware. I began collecting Memory Lane ironstone many years ago, but my love of the pattern began when I was just a little girl. My Grandma Mercer had one dinner plate. I imagine that she picked it up either in a box of laundry soap or as a reward for shopping at the IGA of Chattahoochee, Florida. I came to love her one plate. My grandmother would make sure that my food was served on that plate no matter what other dinnerware pattern was set on her table! When she passed away, I was blessed to receive her dining room set which included a lovely buffet with glass knobs along with the matching table and chairs. I also received my Memory Lane plate. During my search for more pattern pieces...
"Be Still and Know That I am God" Psalm 46:10
Happy Fall to you too. Pretty pumpkins and I like that Bible verse you have in your header. Perfect! Thanks for the greeting.

Thank you Gina! We named our home "Still Woods" for the verse. We are blessed to live on a quiet piece of woods at the end of a road where one can truly "Be Still..." I made the pumpkins last year and had fun with my first Mod-Podge project in years!

Thank you Poppy! I cannot wait until the weather gets cooler. We have had a few "teases" from nature, but today was awfully hot. That's southern MS for you!

DeleteThe pumpkins were my first Mod-Podge project in years! Amazing what you can do with a jar of Mod-Podge and paper!

These pumpkins look so pretty. I'm pretty sure your pumpkin post from last year was this first time I visited your blog! Happy Fall!
