Simplicity~

"And I learned what is obvious to a child...

That life is simply a collection of little lives, 

each lived one day at a time...

That each day should be spent finding beauty in flowers 

and poetry and talking to animals.

That a day spent with dreaming and sunsets and refreshing breezes

cannot be bettered...

But most of all, 

I learned that life is about sitting on benches next to ancient creeks

with my hand on her knee and sometimes, 

on good days, for falling in love..."

Of course, they were thrift store and yard sale finds...

The wall hanging in the background for $2. The large, porcelain crazed bowl was $3. The lamp was a Christmas present years ago from my mom and the vintage, mini 'tall boy' silverware cabinet was a yard sale purchase for $50...

I have been collecting the vintage linens for years...

What a beautiful, yet simple vignette was created with a few things from around the house. All used, all inexpensive, all beautiful and all on daily display somewhere in this old farmhouse...
