I must admit, I love Fall...there is something so inviting about it. I can almost smell the Pumpkin Spice Lattes. And with that comes fall decorating...I can't wait! I have just a few mums to take the place of summer plants that are "no longer with us"...
For inspiration, I took a peek back at a post I did last year on JunkMarket Style. Mind if I share it with you?

A bicycle basket, a few gourds and my house numbers welcomed my guests...
A crusty old lawnmover and a few more gourds...
I apologize for my sad looking mums...I have to admit, they'd been neglected. It got cold fast last here in MN and I kind of forgot about them...just a few days earlier my sweet hubby said "Man those are some "Hardy Mums"...ooops!!!
I got this chippy, rusty stand at a barn sale for cheap and this wooden bucket at the French Flea...a perfect "marriage" in my book. There is a base on this stand buried in the rock. I think it would make a nice wine bucket on my deck as well...nice to have options...
A dead summer plant, a pumpkin and a couple of cool metal pieces and we were good to go!
Well anyway, that's what I did last year...I'll be sure to post pictures when I'm done this year. I PROMISE to take much better care of my mums this time around...or atleast take pictures earlier ;)
When do you start your fall decorating? Or are you already done??? Can't wait to see what everbody comes up with...
Take care! |

I usually don't do any fall decorating outside but I love your's. I'm too cheap to pay $10 or more for a pumpkin and this year, the puppy would just chew everything to bits!
ReplyDeleteSo Laurel, do you think we'll be standing side-by-side at JB, not knowing it and eyeing the same piece of junk? Hope you find everything you want (notice I didn't say need?)!
Love the fall decor, especially the push mower. I hope you have a great time at the Bonanza! Lezlee
