The BEST Season for Decorating!
Summer has faded and now Fall is in full COLOR!
I am in shock how fast 2018 has slipped by!
However the next few months for me... are so fun!
I have always enjoyed decorating for the holidays!
The "Art Gallery Porch" is now decorated for fall.
We have many days here that you can enjoy sitting outside in the early evening.
Temperatures in the fall fluctuate from a low of 20 degrees to a high of 70++!
So... you take advantage of the Fall Afternoons.
When I decorate now I try and use what is available around the area.
I adore Pine Cones! I use them everywhere!
A pine cone is such a beautiful sculpture of nature.
I fill baskets with them, use them in floral pots, and mix them into display.
Yes...I also collect Heart Shaped Rocks!
A Romantic through and through!
All my art galleries and homes have always had a
hand painted heart on them!
The floral pots left over from the summer flowers
were refilled with dried flowers and plants from the local area.
I picked dried cattails, grasses, and dried flower pods.
So many colors outside right now.
Make sure you shake the seeds out of the pods so they return.
All the dried plants were placed right in the same dirt the flowers were in.
Just soak the pot first ...then add the dry bunches.
They will stay put!
I added pine cones to the sections that had a gap!
A few fake leaves...Flash ..."Fall Decor"!
I added raffia ribbon from the dollar store!
Total cost...$5.00!
The summer pillows were left on the wicker chairs.
They just needed a little ribbon and colored leaves!
Cattails were filled in OLD Pots with ...YES...Pine Cones!
Have FUN decorating...Look around your backyard!
Lots of possibilities!
Have a Wonderful Evening & Fall Season!

Happy Decorating!
