October in Nebraska

Happy Fall everyone.  October has brought cooler temps for Nebraska, which is a welcome relief from the 100 plus days we were having.  The wind has been blowing excessively for the past two days bringing down many, many leaves.  I love trees but I hate raking leaves.  I've started collecting and searching for another set of yellow ware bowls with blue and white bands.  I've gotten four so far.  Half the fun is in the hunt.  I hope everyone is enjoying the cooler weather.

This is my dry sink and my McCoy yellow ware bowls decorated for Fall.  I love to decorate for Fall and Christmas especially.  How do you like to decorate for Fall?

I love vintage cherry collectibles.  They are very hard to come by.  I search garage sales, flea markets and antique shops for these collectibles from the 40's and 50's and this is all I've gotten.  What's your favorite collectible?

If anyone is looking for a great primitive decorating magazine you need look no further.  A Primitive Place is a wonderful magazine with great articles and beautiful featured homes.  Stop by their website and take a look.

I spent three days in Madison, Wisconsin.  Very nice area, except the humidity.  My husband and I had a wonderful time with the crew from ABS Global  in DeForest.  I wanted to spend some time searching for primitive treasures but I didn't get a chance this time. 

Hello everyone I wanted to share a couple of things I love.  These bowls are my set of Nelson McCoy yellow ware bowls which date to around 1930's.  This set of eight range in size from a 4" to an 11".  This other photo is my dry sink I purchased a couple of years ago that's decorated for the summer.  It's so versatile and I change out with the seasons.  I'll post more pics in the fall.
