Another Wonderful White Wednesday

Not exactly "white" white but my take on white nonetheless. i like well-worn (well-loved) , "aged white" so here are a few of my favorite whites on my dining room china cabinet....


...some vintage "coverless" books that i've hand stamped with French images and words....


...and embellished with vintage lockets, keys, watches and crucifix...

...my wine cork collection....


Wishing you all a Happy White Wednesday! Don't forget to go on over to the Faded Charm Cottage to see more white "tresors!"
Avec Amour,

  17. Love your vignette on your shelf. I just purchased a whole bag of old falling apart books that I took the covers off and I, too am saving up wine corks to display in a jar. Love all your embellishments on your books.

    Happy WW.

  20. Just beautiful! The books are so wonderfully tattered I love them. I have a collection of wine corks but I haven't been able to think of a way to display them. Thanks for the idea.
