Vintage Inspirations In Black and White

I did not think I would be able to come up with a post to join Debra from Common Ground's

Vintage Inspiration Friday party. 

 So, I decided to work on a new display for my table to get ready for tomorrows Fall Cloche Party with Marty from A Stroll Through Life and Show and Tell Friday with Cindy from My Romantic Home. 

  

Then as I started working at it, I new my post would be perfect for all of them.

I have been in a mood for Halloween, black and white became my inspiration as I was walking through my house pulling different pieces from my home to work into the display. 

  I was lucky enough to inherit my mother's vintage cameras and I have added a few to the collection over the years.  I also have been adding black hats to my collection of hats that I got from my mother. 

 I love how black and white look together.  

 It just kind of fell together. 

You see, I try to only have things in my house that I love and it makes it easier to display them. 

I have always liked this picture.  It speaks to me.

A Halloween picture from Better Homes and Garden.

It inspires me!

I think by the time Halloween gets here I may have to write on my white pumpkin,

BOO perhaps!

This top hat is one of my favorite flea market finds.  It is collapsible too!

This a mix of my style, silver, buttons, black, white, candles and chippy. 

A simple cloche, but it tells so much. 

 That is my mom's camera that came from my grandmother. 

 The sheet music is some is my mom's too.

The picture, is my MOM when she was a young girl.

So is this. 

Someday I will show you a picture of when she looked just like Shirley Temple. 

I have the curls too!

Happy Friday, I hope you enjoyed and maybe were inspired.
