White Palette
Welcome to White Wednesday!
Several of you inquired about this little advertising painter's palette that appeared in a post a few days ago...
I thought I would show you the reverse side.
Rob's Mom gave it to me and if I remember correctly she said it belonged to her mother....
That's all I know!....click to enlarge for details
Talk about wild women!
One bare shoulder sitting on that furry rug...
...and this little one is even more daring!
...in her matching outfit and sitting on a ruffled tuffet...
...Now this one sitting in her straight back chair doesn't seem to be related...
...possibly not even on the same planet!
Moving along with my whites....
...pearly buttons in icy snow...
white balls of string...
love the textures...
love the sheen!
For more participants in White Wednesday...
... please visit Kathleen at Faded Charm!
Hope your Wednesday is a happy one....
...ours will be white again...in fact snow is expected on and off with sleet and freezing rain right through the rest of the week...
Enough already!
Good night!
:)

The pics of the little girls are cracking me up! ~Mindy
Hi Laura,
A beautiful post! I especially like the off-the-shoulder costumes. I understand that is what all the women will be wearing at the academy awards this year.
Keep safe and warm,
Marjorie

Oh My Goodness Laura!!
those little girls are so adorable? Are they family photos?
Well I think the 3rd uptight little girl is more like my childhood photos.. she has the same fringe!! and the same.. 'get it over with' look on her face.. hahaha the Painter's Palette is lovely too.. but those 3 little girls have stolen my heart today!! xx Julie
What a wonderful painter's palette! I don't see many palettes but I actually saw a couple this week-end. Not as pretty as yours though!
I luv those SWEET photos...they are soooo CUTE! Come by and enter my CASH "GIVEAWAY"...I think you will like it:) Happy WW!

I love the world you've created here on your blog. It's a beautiful white-washed, pastel, vintage wonderland. Keep up the good work!
Fun shots of wonderful shades and textures!
Woww!! what a beautiful pallet !!

Have a great day hugs from me

Wow, love all of the pearly whites. My favorite is the buttons in the snow. Sweet pictures of the children. Have a blessed day!
LOLOL, the little girls' photos made me laugh. The first one, fine, she is smiling. The second one seems to be saying " I have been sitting here for ages, when is that idiot photographer going to take the shot?" She is looking quite miffed. And the third one, oh dear me, the third one so needs to go the the little girls' bathroom.
Dear Laura,
A wonderful poy pourri of white articles.
The photos of the first two girls would probably be frowned upon today as exploitation !!!!
I love that artist pallette. Rob's mum has given you such wonderful things, hasn't she ?..... and, what is it about pearl buttons ? I love them too. I love putting my hand into a jsr of pearl buttons and let them slip through my fingers....I know, I'm weird !!

Love, love love that palette! It's going to be white here again too....ugh HWW
Oh, my, Laura, I just love that girl with the hat on the chair! She kind of reminds me of when I was really young, and trying to stay prim and proper and trying so hard not to do anything naughty (I would always get my tights dirty playing with the boys!). p.s. congrats to your nephew getting into McGill - it will be wonderful to see you here in Montreal!
Good morning, Laura
I love your french paint palette. It is absolutely adorable.
You cracked me up with your little vintage girls comments!
Rhonda
So happy to have found your blog it looks amazing! Thanks for sharing those sweet little photos!
Those racy photos!!! My goodness..LOL loved them all. :-) Your whites are beautiful once again. and that is so unique, the palette from your hubby's mom. wow! a treasure. Thanks for sharing..
Too Cute! The girl with the hat on has the best 'just take my picture already' look on her face! Your photos are always so artfully done, I love them! Theresa
Love your whites. The photos of the children are so cute. We are supposed to get 12 inches of snow here between tomorrow and Friday! I won't be getting my fabulous kitchen cabinet (see my blog) this weekend if that happens. Hoping it turns to rain:)
