Fall Porch

Hey y'all! Rhoda from Southern Hospitality is hosting a Fall Door Decor party and well I just had to join in on the fun! 

Welcome! I am still wanting to get some grape vine to go around the door and maybe some white lights for the topiaries and of course once it gets closer I have to have some real pumpkins! According to The Hubster it is done though!;)

The topiaries are just metal garden cone shaped trellis that I purchased from HobLob quite a few years ago. I just wrapped more than several garland around them and secured them with floral wire so they would not slip down. Then I just tied some raffia into a bow to top um off. I really am itching to add some white lights. Lets see if I can resist!;)

Boo sign I purchased a few years back from HomeGoods and no I promise I am not being compensated by them!;) I just LOVE HomeGoods! Also you can see that I added grapevine wreaths around the bottom of the topiaries. Just thought it gave um a nice touch.

Here is my favorite part of the porch! This wreath is pretty large and made from garland and picks. The last two years I had our initial hanging in the middle but I wanted to change things up a bit this year so I added the pumpkin Autumn sign and some more picks.

Yep, it is beginning to look a lot like fall around here! Now if I can only talk mother nature into deciding that it truly is fall and that we NEED cooler temps here in South East Texas plus some more rain things will be just grand! The last two days we have hit 100!!

Hope your week is going well!

Pamela, great job on the front porch!! (I may have to borrow the topiary idea, especially with the grapevine wreath at the base.) I love that! I need to get busy outside. Very pretty!!

Beautiful Pamela! Good luck with the mother nature thing, Mississippi is not cooperating right now either and this makes it diffiult to get in the mood of fall. At least we are having cool mornings and nights tho.

Love it, Pamela. Husbands always think it is done. Not!

I tell my husband I married him for his looks...not his interior design expertise (or his table manners)!
Your entry is lovely!
