I walked into my dining room this morning and the light was perfect for a little impromptu photo shoot on the buffet. I grabbed some random objects that were on the buffet (at the moment the buffet is nothing more than a storage surface) and started shooting.
And just in case you were curious, this is how random the buffet looks at the moment.
I found the old wood piece at an antique store and paid $2.00 for it. I'm pretty sure they thought I was crazy but I think it makes a perfect backdrop for photos.
Happy Leap Year Day!

Funny - not the photos! The photos are awesome. Funny that I thought you had a r-e-a-l-l-y rustic buffet, until I saw the last shot! You have a way of making everything look great.
ReplyDeleteRandom works wonders for you Jane!
ReplyDeleteLove that little wood piece...it is perfect for photos!!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are always so beautiful and these are no exception! Love the old wood - full of character!
ReplyDeleteWe bloggers have a whole different way of looking at things that the "regular" people just don't understand lol. Good eye.
ReplyDeleteGreat photography of those beautiful transferware dishes against the old wooden lift!
ReplyDeletegreat picture your impromptu photo shoot, i want to learn more about my camera and take close ups
ReplyDeletePs
ReplyDeleteall of my shots are spur of the moment
your shots are always beautiful
Beautiful photos Jane and I love that $2 wood piece. Waiting on the sun to come out here...it's been way to long:(
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Linda
Simply beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou are so right Jane about the old wood!Love the potatoe mashers in the background,I remember seeing them in use as a child,either my late Mother or Grandmother must have used them,I think they would be a handy self defence implement now!
ReplyDeleteI love the old wood piece and you are right it is perfect. When I saw the first pic I thought no way she has a buffet of weathered wood like that!
ReplyDeleteJane,
ReplyDeleteI always second guess myself about those kind of things.
In the long run, it's $2.00 well spent!! Great back drop
for those pieces you have there :)
It's snowing in NY. now more blog hopping is in order!
Lovely photos!

Great photo shoot and the wood piece is perfect!
ReplyDeleteI think maybe I need to learn how to use my camera for wonderful pictures like yours.
Enjoy this Leap Year Day,
Cheryl
Gorgeous photos, Jane! That board makes a perfect piece for the buffet...and I love it just like you have it styled! Lovely transferware...XO
ReplyDeleteWere not crazy everybody else is. That's at least what I keep telling myself. Glad you grabbed your camera, great photo opp.

It may be random, Jane, but it works! I love all the elements you have here ~ fabric, wood, ceramic, natural elements in the acorns, glass; I think as different as they all seem they all work together beautifully. Great brown and white transferware. The brown and white is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteI love all these pieces together, they may be random, but it works!

Absolutely gorgeous pictures Jane. Yes the light was working for you!
ReplyDeleteNormally, I am not a fan of brown, BUT this is the second time today that I found brown very appealing to me. I'm traveling to Pittsburgh for work. I started feeling hungry and realized I was near the exit for Pittsburgh Mills, what a coincidence ;-) Anyway, wandering through Penney's in the purse section, I found a stunning chocolate brown purse with silver embellishments. Normally brown is accented with gold; I don't like gold so I rarely even consider a brown handbag. BUT, this shade of chocolate was just gorgeous with the silver and now, your brown & white transfer ware has me liking brown again...amazing. Thanks for sharing the great photos, Jane, you have a gift. OH, the purse was Liz Claiborne, $70.00, way out of my purse price range, darn it!
ReplyDeleteWonderful. You have such a knack.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. I love it when the light is just right! hugs, Linda
ReplyDeleteGREAT PHOTO'S I LOVE THE BROWN CREAMER AND SUGAR BOWL, BEEN THINKING OF PURCHASING SOME LIKE IT..THIS JUST HELP ME DECIDE FOR SURE I LOVE THE COLOR...ALL YOUR PHOTOS ARE VERY NICE..THE LITE WAS PERFECT...I ENJOYED YOUR PHOTOS THANK YOU WITH LOVE JANICE mMZ. WITHERSPOONS
ReplyDeleteOh how I'd love to utter those words "the light in my house was perfect"... ain't happenin' here! Happy Leap Year Day to you too Jane-have fun:@)
ReplyDelete$2 well spent.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful impromptu photo shoot Jane and I love the $2 purchase.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures, Jane. I'm absolutely loving your blog!!! I just about fell off my chair when I saw the first two pictures though. I own an antique store and had a customer come in just this morning looking for pieces with that exact pattern, in that colour. It's not a pattern that I see often - in fact I only recall ever seeing two pieces myself. What are the chances that you would post pictures of those pieces on the same day that I'm asked for them? Awesome. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe pictures look worthy for a magazine spread Jane. I love those treasured pieces.
ReplyDeleteI passed up a brown transferware plate with a "cow scene" at a local shop last week. I think your post is telling me to go back and buy it.....if it's still there!! Beautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteLove the transfer ware especially in brown. Those acorns are so cute. We only get the long skinny kind.
ReplyDeleteHave a happy day. Lisa
Perfect light!
ReplyDeleteThe browns and whites look great. You know how to bring out the best in even the smallest details.
Your random is awesome...beautiful photographs!
ReplyDeleteLove the acorns!
That wood piece does look fantastic in photos! I love all your lovely brown transferware pieces. Did you decide what color to re-paint the walls?
ReplyDeleteOh Jane, you know how to reel us transferware junkies in...gorgeous pieces and love your wondeful photos!!
ReplyDeleteThe wood piece really does pull everything together beautifully!

I just spent two days reading ALL of your posts. I was so drawn to all of your projects that I had to see them all. Now I have to go through all of my garage sale boxes and rethink what I want to sell. :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I have wanted to rent a booth for several years. It is way out of my comfort zone. Any advice? Wish I could go thrifiting with you. We would have a great time. Take care.
The top of your buffet may be random but it is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteExcellent photo's btw!
The Tonquin pieces caught my eye on the thumbnail but I must say your photography is wonderful! Great shots. I love that wooden piece...what a good deal...whatever it is it's neat!
ReplyDeleteYou do random very well! :) Best wishes, Tammy
ReplyDeleteThis is so similair to how I felt the other day when packing...it is so nice to see someone that "feels" the treasures of one's heart...love you blog...thanks so much for sharing yourself with us all....
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love all the stuff you create. So inspiring!
ReplyDeleteIt is appropriate time to make a few plans for the longer term and it is time to be happy. I've learn this publish and if I could I desire to suggest you some attention-grabbing things or advice.
