I did some vintage antique shopping this past week in the
Chapman Antique Mall at the Circle in Orange, California.
I found many things that I liked.
I particularly liked the brown jug in this shot.
Some Halloween things were already on display.
I found at least one chandelier. And this is what the rest of the day was like......
Driving home from the antique mart on a clear summer day. No smog on this day.
Mr. COS had just watered my roses and I captured these shots of blooms
on my 'Leonidas' rose plant. Perfect rose to represent fall.
I didn't enhance the roses in these photos. I never do.
I want you to see them vibrant and colorful as I see them.
The perfect rose for someone who loves orange as much as I do.

How I love your tours of Orange.....now is this in OLD ORANGE? I used to go there with friends when I was just out of high school. Then when I moved to Boston, I often dreamed of Old Orange, then when I moved here....that's been 28 years now, and about 4 years ago, I had the pleasure and honor of meeting up with a DEAR blog friend in Old Orange while visiting family in L.A. We went to all the places that I had been dreaming for 28 years and it was lovely.
If you go to Old Orange Susan, TAKE LOTS OF PICTURES of the beautiful circle with the fountain, the antique shops, everything. I'LL BE THERE! Anita
it seems like you have some great vintage shops where you live.
love the chandelier!

I would have loved that shop. You have beautiful roses, no editing required!
Some lovely vintage items, I am weak for the chandeliers, too.
I love going antiquing, I think I was born in the wrong era! LOL

I love that you are getting a jump start on fall, I too want to skip this last bit of summer and move right into fall and then winter :)
Love that you inspire places my heart leans on with all the bits of old to create from.

I really enjoy changing my décor according to the seasons. One interesting find a year keeps me from having a storage problem. Vintage Fall is my favourite because of the rich, warm colours.
Thinking of the fall, huh. I still hang onto summer. Luckily it's lasting here.
Hanging out at antique malls is one of my favorite things to do. And I adore the orange rose! I'm happy that fall is within sight!
Oh Susan, that is great to hear. Let me know if you have any Q about it. ♥
