I decided to go ahead and take down my summer decor from the front porch and go to Fall. I think it is quickly approaching - even tho it has and will be near 100 degrees all of this week. But the days are getting shorter and the evenings are getting cooler
On the front porch (which is completely covered) I made a swag of burlap and silk leaves wired on a heavy jute rope.
The burlap leaves are from HL and the silk ones from Michaels.
I added a pumpkin basket full of fall foilage and my new little yellow vintage truck filled with pumpkins and various fall crops. This little truck is not old but a reproduction. Don't you just love her?
On the front wall between the door and the garage I made a new wreath with beautiful yellow sunflowers. I added a wooden heart that I covered with a piece of patchwork that was all done in Crazy Quilt embroidery.
Brenda gave me this piece of fabric and thought I could do something with it. She gives and throws away a lot of really good stuff!! If she's not using it, she gets rid of it That's why her house is always so spotless!!
I added a simple burlap bow and called it quits.
So, now I need to put some new pillows on the little bench, fill the old wagon full of fall flowers and I'll be done.
Enjoy!
Till next time, Judy
How happy your pretty fall decorations make me feel!!! That little truck is just too adorable for words! xo

It is the time to change to fall. That is what I did yesterday and today in a much smaller way. It made me happy as do the cooler nights. Love the quilted cover on your heart.

It all looks great and I LOVE that little truck!
ReplyDeleteHa, I think I'm like Ms. Brenda, if I haven't used it in 5 days, out it goes!!! (exaggerating but only slightly). Your porch fall decor is great!
ReplyDeleteYour little heart is so cute...I just love it. And the swag, I have to try to make something like this. I can't wait to see your porch when it's finished.
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jane
I love that old truck! I can't wait to start decorating for Fall! I think everyone's starting early this year! Sweet hugs!
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful! Love your little truck. Too bad it's so darn hot in Oklahoma right now, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of wiring the leaves on the rope...all kinds of possibilities with that! And the little truck is charming!
ReplyDeleteYou are looking like Fall at your place, Judy. I love that cute little truck-it's really darling. I hope you have a fun Friday- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteJudy
ReplyDeleteYou are ready to embrace Fall!
I'd like to try your burlap leaves, they look great with the silk ones.
Your porch always looks so pretty. I love your creativity.
ReplyDeleteI love your beautiful fall decorations, Judy! The little truck is so cute, and how lovely the leafy swag looks in those warm autumn colours. It was nice of Brenda to give you the patchwork......love that little heart :)

Gorgeous fall decorations! You inspire me so much. Blessings for your day!
ReplyDeleteOh your little truck is just adorable! Makes me want to get fall going at my house.
ReplyDeleteJUDY, JUDY, JUDY!!! You make me yearn for Fall..
ReplyDeleteThe outside Fall decorations you have are absolutely fantastic and very detailed. More is better; by that I mean, your curb look is cute but your up-close look is priceless, where one can see, for instance, not just a colorful heart but an embroidered-antique-quilt-scrap-covered heart and that the swag of Fall leaves also has burlap leaves added, the little truck is full of miniture pumpkin produce and on and on. Thank you for getting me stirred up to start my Fall decorating!
I'm glad you could use what I embroidered some time ago. Where did you get that sweet truck?
ReplyDeleteBrenda
Even though I'm not ready for fall decorating yet, your porch is looking good! I love that truck. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love everything on your front porch. As an antique (LOL) or antiquer, I adore that little truck and love that you use unexpected things to bring that Judy touch to your decorating.
ReplyDeleteJudy I love it all. Going to pin it and share. Loving that little darling truck.
ReplyDeleteHi Judy! Oh, you've been a busy gal again! I love all of your sweet fallness on your porch. The swag is really pretty and I adore that sweet little truck! I've been looking for one - old or new - but can't find one.
ReplyDeleteI've got to quit making dolls and get busy with fall! :)
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)

ReplyDeleteThat little truck is SO charming! Great job with the styling.
ReplyDeleteYep I love the truck AND your patchwork :)
ReplyDeleteThe truck hauling mini pumpkins is too sweet.
ReplyDeleteI really like your fall decorations. The old truck with pumpkins is so cute. My Dad used to collect and restore old trucks. I guess that's why it caught my eye.
