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
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!
