LAST DAYS TO ENJOY FALL TRANSFERWARE

Thanksgiving will finally arrive here next week. 

For one last time, I am sharing the open armoire
 with some fall transferware and

 English teapots.  Sometime back I found 2 more

 of the Pallisy Bird Plates at the flea markets in Fort Collins.

I have intermingled a few English teapots that 
I thought looked more fall toned.

I found a few more pieces of brown transferware since last year and a couple English tea pots:

I have noticed several bloggers who are decorating for Christmas already and I've got the itch too but not until after Thanksgiving.  This will be our last Christmas in Colorado where

 we have spent 21 years so we plan to enjoy it and try not to get too overwhelmed with the impending packing.

 We will close on a retirement walkout rancher in Columbia, Missouri on January 29th.  We have joked because someone asked us what a retirement walkout rancher was.  It just means - less stairs going up and down!  The basement is above ground on most of 3 sides which keeps it from being quite as damp and cold.  We will be excited to be near family. 
 There will be some adjustments in our new home as we won't have a den - just a living room.   I am so excited that I will have my own large area in the finished basement for a personal tea room.  I have to recreate a garden in the yard but guess what?  
There is a sweet goldfish pond right near the sliding glass doors that go into the house.  I already see Jeremy Fisher sitting there!  I'm hoping he gets along well with the goldfish!
