My porch has been going through a lot of change lately.....
Here's the porch set when I first bought it 3 weeks ago, from Craig's List:
Two weeks ago I vamped it into this: I love this look for summer with red and white geraniums and for spring, I think it would great with red and yellow tulips....
But this week I wanted to fall into autumn by bringing in a new fabric and some warm touches of fall.....
Hey there....come sit down and have a cup of cider!
Thanks so much for coming by to visit me, please check out all the beautiful posts on Susan's Between Naps on the Porch blog!And I'm also hanging out at Rhondis Rose Colored Glasses. Come join us fro a Fall Partay!
3 weeks and you have already made your furniture 2 dresses!! That's amazing!!
ReplyDeleteYour porch is awesome. I would so love a huge porch like this. My front is more of a stoop- I am thankful for my stoop, but a stoop none the less!

What can I say except....WOW!! I love every single inch of what you've done. Your front porch is magazine worthy! I would love to mimic it if I had the space. The new FALL decor is spectacular and especially love your scarelady with her legs crossed all prim and proper in her chair. I'd love to share a cup of cider and good conversation while sitting on your front porch. Job beautifully done!
ReplyDeleteOh how pretty, I love the new fall colors. YOur decorations are just stunning too. I LOVE, LOVE , LOVE those pretty urns by the door. Your cute little metal teapot on the coffee table is wonderful. What a lovely and inviting porch. Hugs, Marty

Oh Rose, it is just beautiful! It doesn't look like any detail was forgotten. But I cannot believe you recovered the cushions that you just recovered 2 weeks ago! ROFL! You're nuts! But hey, it looks wonderful!

O, Rose...you did it again, girl!! I love your beautiful fall porch. I need to make some fallish pillows for my porch swing..thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThis is BEAUTIFUL! I love the darker shades of the furniture...and your fall look is fabulous! It is definitely worthy of a magazine display. You have inspired me to head to the porch this afternoon and see what I can do.

What a beautiful porch!! As a visitor, I would feel so very welcome and look forward to my visits. That is exactly what a porch is supposed to do. Great job!!
ReplyDeleteOne question, How in the world do you store all this stuff when it's out of season?
ReplyDeleteAm I jealous much?... Why yes, yes I am.
*smooch*

ReplyDeleteHI! I just found your blog, and love it! Everything you have done is just gorgeous. Love your home. I saw you have a home in TN and you were in Chatanooga, I have family there, as well as in Crossville. Where are you? And your Santas are absolutely stunning. Do you by chance know Chelsea, of Chelsea Santas (from Neimans)? My Aunt is really good ffriends with her. Just wondered if maybe it's a small world. You have such talent.
ReplyDeleteLove the fall makeover. I have the same black and twine throw pillows you had on before :)
Take care,
Alyshia

I just love everything you have done! Love that teapot candleholder, and I bet you MADE the scarecrow man...right???? If so I would love to be able to buy one from you. I ahve one on my porch right now but it is store bought and not nearly as nice as yours:):) I will be posting my porch on RMS any day now so will give you a heads up!!! Happy Fall, Rose! Love, Pinky
ReplyDeleteRose, you are one industrious lady! I cannot believe I just saw your porch furniture's summer outfits, and you have already made Fall outfits for them! Their Fall outfits look great. All of your Fall porch decor is fabulous! You should also link this to Rhondi's (Rose Colored Glasses) Fall Party tomorrow (well, actually I guess it's today-Tuesday), so more people will get to see all of this beauty. laurie
ReplyDeleteI thought the porch looked great last week... BUT, WOW I love the change for Fall. I am so in the mood for Fall!!!!!! We are usually still hot this time of year but, we have had rain & cool fronts. So, I need to get busy & decorate. YOU INSPIRED ME! Thank you. Enjoy your little nest!
ReplyDeleteRose, this is just outstanding! What a feast for the eyes AND the senses....I think I can smell that warm cider!
ReplyDeleteI, too, have been inspired by your post to do something more with my front porch. I'm taking my scarecrow out to the bench right after I hit "publish". Thanks so much for sharing your ideas & allowing us to visit!
