Getting in the Spirit



I'm a little bit of a party pooper on Halloween. I think my favorite part is toasting fresh pumpkin seeds. In fact, it's probably what motivates me to carve the pumpkin!

I did put out this carved bird on the window sill, which isn't very scary, but it kind of looks like a silhouette against the light.

  1. The little pumpkins are darling. With your large windows, apron sink and wooden counter gleaming, this could be a photo in a magazine. I love those windows by the sink.

  2. Trina, what a lovely window sill. Still life with pumpkins and bird. Love it. Thanks for your note too.
    I bet the colors out there are gorgeous right now.

  3. Your kitchen is gorgeous. Love the wee pumpkins. I am crazy for your whole house. Do you know, I have read ALL your posts in the last few days?

    Your house is my FAVORITE on all the blogs. I love your classic taste and measured approach to decorating. I love that your house is full of precious things, not junk. So I would never have expected to see a full on Halloween spectacle in your house! Very classic and quiet with the little touches.

    P.S. The new living room chairs you've ordered - are they from Ethan Allen?? I want a chair exactly like this but here I have only found similar at Ethan Allen and they don't have it in their showroom. I don't want to buy sight-unseen. Where is yours from, if I may ask??

    You can always email me:

  7. We don't really do Halloween to any great extent here Trina, but I'm sure it will get bigger in the coming years. Your kitchen sill looks lovely, very restrained & elegant.
