Shell's Little Sittin' Porch,,,,,,An Autumnal View

Debra at Common Ground truly inspired me to get my backside motivated and fix up my little sitting porch for the Fall,,,,and then evenutally in a couple of weeks here for Halloween..........Here's the Autumnal Part.......Autumnal.......I learned that $3 word for "Martha" several years back.......it sounds so decadent...not "Fall" but Autumnal.........you can use it too, honest, I won't even charge you!






Here's the gist of it. Too funny if you look VERY carefully in the window that's open on the left side,,,,you'll see a pair of glowing orbs! No, no pre-Halloween apparitions, it my Black Lab, Shadow, who always want's to know what's going on!


I know these Sunflowers won't last, but they were fun to tuck in for the photos! There in a vase now. I found some fun apple baskets junking this summer. Great to throw some potted flowers in!



My little wire Bistro table,,,,gourds,mini pumpkins and some  handmade sweater and fabric pumpkins from Joyworks friends for my birthday last year.....

(Closer up)
I used some of my Vintage ceramic Cherubs as risers, if you will .........of which I have a Ton!


Here's the Vintage Birdcage that I found at a yard sale this summer for $3. I perched  a crow on top and added some of  the Hops from my yard this year......

All the pumkins, greenery, gourds and leaves are from Snohomish.....The only thing I added to these pics that wasn't grown locally, or from my own yard was the wheat I added to a couple images.......How Fun is that? To get it ALL from locals???


Final pic: A couple of Vintage Chapel adjustable metal Planters I found this Summer. Too fun, but alas, they are going to a new home after Ruffles and Rust ,where I will only use them as props,,,

Sidebar: (Here,,,LOL, I'm supposed to tell One  dear friend  that Another and  dear AND mutual  friend said,
"She doesn't even DO flowers, I do!" I'll give you a hint,,their names both start with Deb....
But, if they pop up at Sand Point,,the friends OR the planters,,,I'm staying out of it! HA~ Love you Both!)
