White Picket Fences and Paper Dolls
I love these little miniature white wooden picket fences. So sweet and they say cottage charm. (Haven't you heard them?) I like to rearrange this little fence with different vignettes of paper dolls and animals. So much fun can be possible with a pen, paper and scissors. This would look so sweet in a nursery, but I actually have this in my dining room at present. I collected moss from out in the shady garden. We love to bring greens inside when it turns chilly. This is the tiniest clay pot they make I think, but so cute. My little giraffe says, "Hi. How are you? Let's party."
We have to include our westie dog most of the time with my paper dolls. A boy and his dog!
Sometimes our kitty gets to babysit them, but usually ends up bathing them.
These roses were white with pink edges. I dried them and I think they still look pretty.
Miniature fence, miniature clothespins. This looks like a fairy fence with their flower petal aprons out to dry.
There are so many more little decorating ideas for these little picket fences. I've seen them stitched onto collages and on canvas.
I hope you had a little fun here with me. Be sure to stop by Faded Charm to
see all of the other White Wednesday posts as there are many white cottage decorating ideas and gorgeous photographs. All photographs here I've taken myself, no small feat. Have a great week!
