Although I do like yellow, I admit that I’m usually not a huge fan of gold things. I’m more of a sterling silver gal. But I do find some gold things occasionally that I think are very pretty.
Thus, I present you with my very first gold Friday Favorites.
Also, I fully realize today is Wednesday not Friday, but I thought you would want to enjoy this week’s edition before Thanksgiving arrives. (My reasoning will be obvious when you see one of the photos below.)
I hope you enjoy your holiday and count your many blessings.

Welcome Thanksgiving with a pie.
Call me weird, but I love the sound of a rotary dial phone.
It’s almost time to unbox the family heirlooms!

Yellow is my favorite color but I’m a silver girl too. However, gold and brass are in. They are hot. I have developed a new appreciation for them. I am liking that Hollywood Regency look. Of course, I mix it up. My home and my shop are a hodgepodge of styles. If it’s old, I like it!
Kim says
Yeah, I’ve been quite surprised at the amount of gold accents I’ve been seeing lately. What goes around comes around, they say! And I’m a fan of an eclectic style as well. 🙂

That morning sunlight is simply breathtaking! And with your comment of the rotary phone….I could hear it in my memory. 🙂
I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving, Kim.
Kim says
I actually have an old rotary phone that I bought at an auction years ago that still works. It’s not my primary phone, but I still use it today! I hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful, Rita. 🙂

I love these images, Kim. The golden morning light in particular and the memory of the sound of a rotary dial phone … oh, that is such a treasure, half-forgotten now. Thank you for sharing! Wishing you and Mark the loveliest of holidays!
Kim says
I’m always so pleased to hear what photographs people love the most. I hope your holiday was (and are) glorious!
Christine says
Such a beautiful collection of gold things! I really love grouped items in photos so the taps and watches speak to me! Thank you for using my photo as well. :o)
Kim says
I’m fascinated by what people collect, too. Thanks for commenting, Christine!
