Black and White

I guess you can say that I am definitely not a minimalist.  In my world it's "the more the better".  Over the weekend I decided to give my dining room buffet an seasonal change. Don't know where this vignette came from but it just evolved somehow.  Mr. Country was a little baffled when he saw me decoupage book pages to pumpkins.  It was a daunting task but I the love the look.  Who would have thought, pumpkins covered in book print!

So with book print in mind I thought a black and white vignette would be a nice direction for my buffet.  And of course, out came my chalk paint again and I painted away...pumpkins, roosters and boxes. 


Something was still missing so......

 .....I added an element of Spooky and this was just the right finishing touch, thanks to the Dollar Tree!  Did you know that you can get a package of 15 silhouettes and these lovely cutouts for $1.00. 






It's amazing what you can create with things that are hanging around you home!  Thanks so much for stopping by, I'll be linking up to,
