Hi Penny,

These are gorgeous, and I love how you photographed them too. I love everything French, don't you? They seem to have such an elegant flair in everything that they do. My daughter and I originally were going to take a drive to Montreal this weekend, but decided not to because of al the rain here.

Montreal is a wonderfully French atmosphere too. I was in the mood for a French fix. Thank you for the inspiration.

Me, too. It's a good thing I like this old stuff because I'm not going to be getting any new stuff. Those birds are wonderful...that's what I need for a corner that needs a little more. I'll be on the lookout now that I know.

Be a sweetie,

Rust has never looked so elegant! My place has lots of rust and aged wood. Not quite in the same league as yours though ~ gives me an idea for a post!

I haven't yet tried to get the stains out of the bird dishes. Maybe next week when things slow down.

Penny,

I love rusted things. I know they need to be cleaned and sprayed with Rustoleum but I just love the aged look.

Penny, your photos are stunning. And, I love all of these things, too.

The first thing I thought of when I read you love rusty things, is that you would love me because I am feeling kind of rusty today.

Enjoy your weekend.

The charm of it make me happy.

I am interested in your new projects. I know they will be wonderful.
