What is it about the shades of brown....

I was looking through some of my scanned items on my computer...
and my eyes were always drawn to these beautiful shades of age ~
browns, creams and sepias.
I've shared some of these images with you before,
if you didn't snag them then ~
please save them for yourself now :)










These last two were gifts to me from Lisa...
And you know I have to share them with you too ~



I've been working on my parent's
50th wedding anniversary invitations...
they have to be mailed out soon!!
Plus I want to make their cake topper myself ~
I've got to get going on that as well....

Be sure to check out Lisa's upcoming class she'll be teaching
at Cottage Panache Antiques!
Just click here to see :)

I hope you're having a wonderful week sweet friends ~
hugs and love,
Dawn

Dearest Dawn, ,yes the browns,-
they are warm, and cosy,they are crisp dry leaves in autumn, they are dried gras in summer,darkbrown trees in silhuets in winter, and sweet little sparrows in spring-I love them all ,too.
Thanks dearest, for your lovely images,I think I got most of them saved, but as I made a new file I calls SEPIA, I will save them all there,
I wish you love of working ,with your parents cake topper, I would love to see, what you are creating, sweetie.
Loving thoughts, and hugs, from a very hot place in Denmark, and from me.
Kisses, Dorthe

I love the chubby little birds. And aren't the ladies smartly dressed? I just love the 30's and 40's in women's fashions. Ladies were so incredibly feminine back then. Anyway, love the pictures.

Wishing you a lovely July day!

The images are lovely. Thanks for sharing. They take me back to my Great Aunt Hazel's house, although I cannot pin point why. Just the spirit of them, I guess.

Smiles,
Teresa
