Tombstone Bread Board



Hi, friends!

Yes, I know it's been quite awhile since I last posted!

Things have been good, and I've been enjoying my summer (although it's flying by too fast!)
I hope that you've been enjoying yours, too.

I thought I'd pop in and show you one of my new favorite finds.

I love old bread boards and have a few, but this shape was new to me.




At the shop where I got it, it was marked 'Tombstone Bread Board' on the tag...did you know that's what this shape is called?

I guess it makes sense, although it's kind of morbid-ha!
But regardless, I love the shape and the price was VERY reasonable, so it came home with me!

I decided to use it as a 'tray' on my dining room table.




I placed it on top of a 'new' vintage grain sack that I recently got, then topped it with a sweet little cherub statue...




...and a faux plant covered with a large glass cloche that I've had in storage...




I think it gives a bit of a 'farmhouse garden vibe' to my dining room table!




I've made a couple of other small tweaks to my dining room, too.




Like in this corner I changed a few things...










...and I went to all white chairs (although still mismatched) around the table, where before I had some black chairs mixed in...




But other areas are surprisingly untouched by my frequent decor changes!










Just some subtle changes to show you...




I hope that you enjoyed!




Until next time (I'll try not to stay away so long!) have a blessed day!  :)
