November days...

 We are into the second week of November...a month that is beautiful with the colors of fall for many and the look of winter for some. Growing up in the south, November was always a fave time for me, the weather was cool & crisp...the winds hinted of the colder days to come.  I love the golden leaves of fall against the grey of the skies in November.
                When November arrives...Thanksgiving is just around the corner & Christmas is not far behind. Lots of antique markets this month...everyone is hunting for that special item and gathering for the holidays. We have shopped at several local antique markets and went on a buying trip in the South in the last few weeks...came back with fabulous finds...Sharing with you a few moments of our hunting & gathering...and enjoying some fabulous southern food along the way!
Shopping in the South...
Love the architectural elements we found in Louisiana...
fabulous French panetiere, with beautiful patina..
Vintage & antique garden items...
lots of old gilt...
Delicious & southern...smothered chicken!
Back on the west coast...shopping in Newport at Rogers Gardens...always a treat!
Rogers Gardens has everything to tempt you...
love the metal wreaths hung on antique doors...
the stunning whites at Rogers Gardens...
hunting for finds at a SoCal antique market....
love the French finds from this vendor, Atelier de Campagne
