Copper~n~Things: Back Porch Dressed For Fall

Welcome

Welcome to our old farmhouse. Over the past year I have learned so much history of this house and the people who lived here. Ninety six years of love, loss, hopes and dreams. Preservation continues and there is always a repair to be done. We are trying to be purest in our preservation as much as we possibly can. I hope you follow along and each week I will try to give you a little history of the house as well as the first owners of the house. I've been lucky enough to find a journal from a Granddaughter who talks about the house as well as her Grandparents. So come follow along and learn about this old house as well as the occupants, old and new.

Back Porch Dressed For Fall

My back porch dressed for the summer months.

Here are the Fall changes. Everything here I have had for years. With the move last year I didn't get to decorate for Fall, so it seems new to me. As I was unpacking I found several things I had forgotten about.

I stacked a couple of grapevine wreaths together, added a cloche, rooster, straw and eggs.

Nothing says Fall like an old tattered quilt and some rooster pillows.

I tied ribbon around the candles and added four small Dollar Tree wreaths for a little texture.

Table for two.

The lantern gets all dressed up.

Now a good book, hot coffee and relax.

Thanks for visiting.
