Today is a cozy Sunday and I think I will make a mixed berry crostata and top it with a nice big scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. For the main course I am going to make chicken with fluffy dumplings. An easy menu but will taste great on a Winter Sunday.
The hanging umbrella photo was taken out in my antiques mall. I took several damaged umbrellas that I had and hung them upside down. They were too pretty to ditch and I just love way they look. It really draws the eye up and you don't even notice the ugly ceiling as much!
Then over here in my apartment bathroom I hung a small piece of trellis and then added a cute framed page out of an antique children's book, a few millinery flowers and some other odds and ends. Neat way to bring the outside garden indoors all year long.Just hangin' around today and thought I would share some things that hang out around me. Have a Happy Sunday!

You KNOW I love it!! I'm such an umbrella crazed person =) Last Spring, I hung upside down umbrellas at the shop but this year I'm just so busy that I can hardly think of a creative idea. Is it warm there today? It's about 50 here and I can hear birds! Can't wait for Spring. Blessings... Polly
Hi there,I love the way you have used the unbrellas and the trellis in your bath looks great.I have had one for some time and I think I will try and display it in this fashion. Thanks so much for the ideal!

Now how clever was that! Love the umbrellas. Sure wish I could come to your mall. And after reading about your meal...I am off to the kitchen. Haven't eaten today and now I am starving.
I'm ready for lunch now!! That all sounds good.
I love the Umbrellas what a fun idea!!
Mmmmm, chicken and dumplings pure comfort food. Delish! Is crostata a pastry of some sort, is it like a cobbler? It sure sounds nummy.
Love all the umbrellas they just make me smile. Hugs, Linda

SUPER ideas!!!! Really, just love it! Love, Esther
Love the umbrellas and it is actually something original - I've never seen that done! I spotted the white toleware cannister on the top of the shelf in the corner of the other pic. Do tell...do you have the set? Hop over to my site and look for the 'It would look great in my kitchen' post. Do you think these are the same things? I think so. i knew the name of that stuff at one time and now it escapes me. Thanks for stopping by! I thought Davey Jones was cute too...Jennifer
