Happy Thursday evening to you. To all you dough bowl lovers, this is for you. I know several of you have emailed me about the small to mid size dough bowl which doesn't always come around. I was going to post this tomorrow but couldn't wait! So happy to announce I just got in a FABULOUS lot of dough bowls...might I even say my prettiest batch yet. I want to keep each and every one of them. I have a total of 10 pieces, assorted sizes, long and round.
The rounds are a great size and VERY hard to come by. I got three really big ones (all over 42") one monster at 55" (looks like a canoe) and 6 of the very hard to find mid to small sized. They are a rich beautiful brown, just got cleaned and freshly waxed and these are seriously beautiful. Old and found in Belgium and Hungary. So first lets take a look at these beauties, email me if you are interested as always. This is what I got from this special lot, so likely they won't go onto the online store as its a limited lot. If you have been waiting for one, trust me they do not get any prettier than this!

UPDATE- All dough bowls are sold. I will be getting in one more box on Monday which I think are the larger ones but feel free to email me on Mon. or Tuesday as I am hoping (fingers crossed) that there are a few more of the small/med. sized. Thanks for your interest, the response has been overwhelming...how I wish I had more!
They measure handle to handle from 15" to 22" long (approx. 12-16" wide)

Filled with crusty fresh bread and a sprig or rosemary....oh yes! PB
Love the idea of one on a center table with greens, so pretty! The Old Painted Cottage
A no brainer to use on a mantle....for the holidays or any other time. PB
I put flowers in mine and have to say I love the look!
So...what do you think? Like dough bowls? Have one? How do you like to use yours? I love them and have truly gained an appreciation for them as decorative objects, its so neat to have a piece of history in your home......just thinking of how it might have been used, where, by whom, 50, 100 years ago! Would love to know what you think of dough bowls. Thanks as always for stopping in, wishing you a fabulous evening and weekend!
For everyone in Hurricane Sandy's path, hope you stay safe and out of harms way. It is a brutal storm and is predicted to bring tremendous rain and very strong winds. If we lose power I may not be on the computer for a few days (CANNOT imagine)!!! Lets hope that's not the case! In any case, wishing you well and happy weekend!

And exhibit B.
All the pretty flowers I received still going strong and condensing some arrangements to maximize their staying power.
Love these mugs! I have to find them......
Love seeing autumn branches as she displayed them here......
How cute is this picture? My friend sent it to me of her pooch celebrating his birthday, too adorable to not share!
We have some new lighting going up around here...FINALLY! My bathroom the sconces I was waiting on for about 8 months finally showed up and are being put up in the next few days. You might have seen my new dining room chandelier which I am loving as well as the absolutely gorgeous crystal sconces for the living room.....super happy with the lighting so far!!
Stunning new sconces for the living room
Close up!
The gorgeous new chandelier for the dining room finally came and got hung!
Dough bowls...you know I love them and I have a really great new resource, so kept one for myself and filled it with lemons and artichokes.....
Any good new books or movies lately? I am soo excited over the release of Les Miserables in December!! Anyone else with me on that? I know its going to be fabulous......
Click on arrow to watch the trailer....looks amazing and the music always gives me goosebumps!
Very off the interior design topic, but I caught tale end of something which captivated my attention and that is the focus in some schools and amongst educators on "CPA va GPA". I was intrigued about what CPA means, it stands for "character point average", its a movement towards taking a closer look at character education vs. traditional education......there was a very interesting article put out by the New York Times that you may or may not have seen, in any case click here for link if you are interested......(particularly interesting for those who have school aged children)
A little store biz...the big buzz is my very special napkin rings, click here if you missed my post on them, worth seeing they are amazing!
Also getting in 5 of these oversized tole trays......antiqued and painted with gorgeous florals! Email me if interested, don't think they will go on the online shop so just email me if you have any questions!
So that's my randomness for this week! Lots of rain around here this weekend.....good weekend for a movie and to catch up on all kinds of things that have fallen to the wayside. What are you up to this weekend? Hope whatever you are doing is enjoyable and relaxing!
