Spider and the Fly

 I have been working on getting the parlor just the way i want it for a while now ...and i think it is finally there
 Our house is a very old farmhouse style built around 1860 or so and i wanted the room to take a the feel of days gone by.
 I love hunting for all those special little things to fit in here and there to give it special touches.
 It is so cozy to go and and sit with a cup of tea and read a book or just look at all the items that i consider eye candy now but at one time had a real purpose in someones daily life  . The spinning wheel that spun wool the crocks that held food and drink the baskets that carried just about everything and anything .The lanterns for light and on and on .
 I am sure i will have many a days enjoying this room and thinking about times gone by .
