Fall Decorations

The pass couple of days I have been digging around looking for items I could use to decoration the front porch. I found things I forgot I had. 







I love to do holiday decorating. When I lived in California our home was in a cul de sac. A few of the neighbors would go all out, almost a competition but a friendly one. I thought it was a lot of fun and so neat to see. So now that I live in the country and off the road, no one see our house. But I still want to decorate, "the man of the place' just doesn't understand, he said no one but us will see it. 
That's OK
So I'll show you, its like you are out for a walk and checking out my house. 







It has been fun and I will probably keep rearranging items for awhile. I have a habit of doing that. And I like the fall decorating the best because I will be able to leave it out till Thanksgiving.





Of course, Pete the cat had to check it out, in fact he ended up knocking some of items off the bale of straw and the chickens also had to do some pecking at the straw. Wasn't able to capture them on the camera.


I can check this off my "things to do" list.

Till next time

  1. Super cute and really puts me in the mood for fall. Now if only the weather would cooperate and turn chilly. I'm in San Diego visiting my grandbaby and it's in the 90s

  3. Cute! I do a small scale version like that since our front porch is small. I put up sorn stalks, pumpkins, etc. I'll wait a few more weeks though. With the 70's/80's too warm for pumpkins...

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section          The joints you'll need will be 2 - 3/4" elbows 2 - 3/4" T's 2 - 3/4" to 1" T (this will be the base of the Feet) 4 - 1" elbow Also need pipe cutters (this cost me almost as much

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl cott
