Hello Friends!! This week I shared some of our outdoor spaces with you ready for fall. And if you saw my DIY Fall Planter post, then you know I’m loving deep colors outside this year, like plums and burgundy’s and dark greens. Today I’m breaking down the plants I used, and the color scheme I chose to go with, and so many more gardening tips for anyone who is looking to get some fall plants! Let’s get our hands in the dirt shall we?
Fall Porch | 2019
Hello Friends!! Thank you SO much for all of your kind remarks about the area in front of our barn I shared yesterday!! Sometimes you don’t really need a lot of space, it’s what you do with the space you have, and that little area in front of our barn decorated for fall really feels like I’m making the most of it! I’m continuing with sharing more of our outdoor spaces today with our farmers porch! Come and take a look ~
Fall Patio | 2019
We are having the most splendid fall temperatures, seriously I can’t even believe it. It’s been mild, with cooler mornings, and comfortable days that dip back down into cooler temperatures at night. We have had no humidity for the last couple of weeks, and honestly I couldn’t wish for better fall weather. It’s made transitioning the inside of our home for fall easy, and now I’m turning my attention towards our outdoor spaces. Today I’m sharing our fall patio!

I’m sharing facts and answering questions all about our limelight hydrangeas – come take a look~
DIY | Vintage Crate Planter
Hello Friends! I shared our outdoor patio space the other day all ready for summer! It truly is one of our favorite spaces that we enjoy all summer long, and I shared how even though it’s surrounded by trees, I still love to bring potted plants, because it makes the entire space feel so cozy. Today I’m sharing a new planter I made using one of my vintage crates, and I love how it turned out.

Painting our Farmers Porch
One of the questions I get asked quite a bit, whenever I share photos of our porch, is what type of finish we have on it. I’ve shared the process here on the blog before, and the original makeover was one of the first ever projects I posted about way back in 2011! We aren’t going that far back today, but since I gave our farmer porch a fresh coat of paint earlier this month, I wanted to share the process with you!
Summer Porch | 2019
Hello Friends!! I am so excited that porch weather is here! One of our most favorite things to do once the warmer weather hits is start and end our day on our farmers porch! So today I’m sharing how I spruced up our porch for summer, along with some blogging friends who are also sharing some of their outdoor spaces – ready for summer!
My Favorite Garden Accessories
I figured since I’m sharing all of my favorite plants, and tips for landscaping, it only seems right to share my favorite garden accessories with you as well. I’ve been working outside in our yard all week, expanding garden beds. Fixing some landscape borders and adding new shrubs, and it feels so good to get outside and work! I wanted to share some of my favorite garden accessories and tools that I love to use around our house!
