Hello Everyone,
Speaking of creamy whites we received a good dusting of the white stuff last night. I did hear a chance of flurries but I was surprised to see the ground white when I got up this morning. It is a little reminder that winter is coming and it is time to get those outdoor chores done!
I have been making some little changes around here, as I seem to do every year at this time, and I thought you might like to see what I was up to.Since our home is going to be on a 'Homes for the Holidays" tour I like to get an early start on my decorating. This year, as in the past our little garden cottage becomes the Christmas Cottage and I am thinking of a creamy white theme.So I have put away the summery dishes and gathered up some of my creamy whites to display in the little corner cupboard that my husband built for me.
So I am giving you a sneak preview today.
due to time restrictions. I suddenly realized that I was having a hard enough time to keep one blog going let alone two! However, I look forward to having lots of Christmasy posts here soon.
Visit Hakan here for Show Off Saturday.
Enjoy your weekend!
Carolyn

Very soothing vignettes! The snow will come here soon enough. I need to put my garden to bed first, though. I hope God can hold off another week or so!

Beautiful creme post!
Strong reading about little Lucas, can not believe how far research has come today, so we'll pray that he will be better.
Wish you a lovely weekend, hug Hanne
This is so beautiful, so calming. I love your corner cabinet. I think I would be playing with that a lot. Congratulations on being in such a lovely magazine. Your blog is a delight. Hugs, Deb=^..^=x4
Lovely creamy post today. Just love the lace on the plates!
Oh my you've got snow!! Thankfully we haven't experienced that yet this year. Instead it's very warm +10C (or 50F) today!!
Hope you have a nice weekend.
Love Elzie
Good morning Carolyn,
The corner cabinet your hubby built is very cute and your creamy whites are lovely. I love all the little sheep! T'is the season, I guess because I'm starting to decorate too. Brrr! It's too early for snow, isn't it? Have a nice weekend.
Blessings,
Sandi
You have the most beautiful things!

What a treat for those on the tour to see your beautiful home. We were on a Christmas house tour several years ago and I had to start decorating in October to get done!
It was fun but my husband said NEVER again!
Hi again! I forgot to tell you how happy I am for your grandson. I do hope this will help him.
Love Elzie
Enchanting! I recently "followed" you and added you to my sidebar. I'm looking forward to your holiday posts.
Very pretty. I am looking forward to your holiday posts I am sure they are going to be spectacular.
How lovely! I wish I had more space in my home to have some more dishes. I'm always amazed to see how many you've got and how wonderful they are.
Have a nice weekend.

Dearest Carolyn,
Great photos from your cream ware collection. Got several pieces myself and we love it as it goes with everything.
Love to you,
Mariette
How elegant and you can never go wrong with whites and creames. Add color for accent. Gorgeous selection of teapots.

Hi Carolyn,
I love all your beautiful creamy whites in the lovely cabinet.
Look forward to seeing more of Christmas at your place.
Have a great weekend and hope that the snow will stay away for a while.

I'd love to have a little cottage like that. Seems you have such fun playing with yours! All your things are wonderful, but my favorite is the picture with the skates.
I saw the last post about your grandson. Good luck to him, and I hope this next year brings the results to his health that you hope for.
White, white, white ... how I adore white! Even when I was a teenager white was just my thing.
Thank you for sharing yours, Carolyn. Everything is simply beautiful.

You've made me want to go out and buy some ice skates! :-)) Gorgeous white photos.

Beautiful as always, Carolyn. Looove the skates - my fave for outdoor decorating at Christmastime.

Carolyn thank you so much for your visit to my new blog. Your creamy and winter whites are gorgeous. I adore the photo of the skates especially. It would make a gorgeous Christmas card. ♥
