Thyme for some outdoor FALL THYME painting, decorating and planting

DO NOT PIN MY PHOTOS TO PINTEREST
Even though our 

Cape Cod home

is undergoing some extensive renovations right now

 I decided to do a little 

FALL THYME

decorating

My hubs cut me out a large pumpkin bench using my

SITTING IN THE PUMPKIN PATCH
design

you can find the pattern for this bench
at
Painting Thyme Needfuls

HERE

I first painted the bench BLACK using an outdoor stain for a

PRIM LOOK

I them painted the

 PUMPKIN

part of the bench using an orange tinted stain

I let some of the black show through for a prim look

I made a grapevine wreath that I attached around my window

I added white lights

I switch out different vines for every season

that I attach to the grapevine wreath around the window

I took this ironing board that I painted for

Painting With Friends

to the Cape

The design is called

Autumn Harvest
It was designed by
Terrye French
and
painted by me
You can purchase the pattern
HERE

I stood the ironing board on the porch by my back door

I also did some fall thyme yard work and decorating

I trimmed back all my hydrangea bushes at my other house and brought them to the Cape

I just stick the "cuttings" in the ground to make new bushes

I usually remove the leaves and flower heads

I was able to make 20 new bushes from the "cuttings"

I planted the "cuttings" all along the grass line

so

the bushes should be beautiful there come next year

I added mums and kale plants to my window boxes and around the yard

My studio window

This is a new birdhouse that I hope to put on a tall pole in the garden

I have picked the last of the veggies in the garden

I just love the 

FALL THYME

Clematis vine growing on the garden fence

it hides the not so attractive veggie garden at this

thyme of year!

This vine is called

SWEET AUTUMN

and

it certainly lives up to its name

with

its wonderful sweet fragrance !

I just sooooooo enjoy this wonderful thyme of year in

New England!

Hugs,

Lynn
