Pumpkins, Do They all Have to be Orange?

Crisp and clean looking, white pumpkins are found in my house during the season of Fall. 

I really like how miniature white pumpkins look displayed in a vintage flower basket or a glass jar.   

 A metal black crow is at home in a white birdcage.


Vinyl bats cling to the mirror, and also the front door (as seen in the reflection).


 A silver mercury glass pumpkin sits on my mirrored chest.  


Pumpkins don't all have to be orange to look fabulous.

Blessings,
Ele

Ele-Your Fall setting is just fabulous! You did a great job...and there is real beauty, to me, in the absence of color sometimes. Perfect!...except for the bats...lol...I hate those stinking bats;>) Diana

Ele, I haven't been here in a while and everything you have posted in the last 4 posts are truly unique. I love the pumpkins and I adore all your Mercury things. They are so hard to find here in the south. Guess people were afraid of Mercury. I love how you diplayed every thing in your craft room and in your bedroom. Love seeing all the beautiful ways to show off our pretties. Hugs, Pat

Oh, Ele, such an elegant Fall home! Love white pumpkins! I adore the vignette with the blue mirror! And the mirrored chest vignette is just awesome! Wherever did you find a mercury glass pumpkin?!? I'd so love to have one!

Hi Ele,

Thanks for stopping by to say hello. I love your white pumpkins. I used them this year as well and I am just happy as a little clam. My boys will require me to get at least 2 orange ones for outside though! Oh well, I can live with that.

Hugs,
Judy

Crazy about that mercury glass pumpkin. I would love to know about the chandelier painting/print with the bird. It's very intriguing Ele. xoxo
