I did buy a new garden flag at Horton's on Saturday.. It was 1/2 price.
Picked up one of these old postcards of our town....it was a shot taken during horse and buggy days. Most of these old buildings still standing.
I bought some little gourds to add to our porch décor. Plus a few small mums. I will just use them for decorations and not plants them..
I bought a few white pumpkins also.. They are just too cute.
I thought this was a clever craft idea. You could make these with kids or grandkids. It's an old paperback novel.
This purse looked like something my granddaughters would love.
I liked what this bracelet says..Love is how we earn our wings.
There was a display of little metal wings. This pair is hanging on an old bottle.
I love this old leaf rake, painted in ecru. They use it in many of their store's holiday décor. See you can't throw anything away...it can be painted. LOL
Yesterday's sunset made the bean field across the road shine like gold. I love this.
I think the low clouds made it a strange kind of lighting.
The sunset was pretty. It seems to set in the little wooded area on the corner.
Look what an odd color the setting sun cast on our house and shop. The lawn looks good in this shot. :):)
I brought in the hummingbird feeders and cleaned them up to put away till spring. Ted filled all the other feeders and put the wood box on the new back deck and actually filled it already. I am hoping we will not need it for a very long time. :)
Wishing all of you a wonderful weekend. Have fun. XO
Your autumn decor is so cute! Are you saying that your lawn doesn't really look that good?
ReplyDeleteHi Vee, I love decorating our porch for seasons and Christmas. Yes, our lawn is nice but it actually needs mowed. LOL. Today it's raining and not likely to get mowed now. Hope you have a fun weekend. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteWhat a pretty place you have...and your grass is still so green, like ours...
ReplyDeleteBJ, It is still pretty green around here. Have you ever been to Penn.? There not one ugly view in that whole state when it's fall. Hope your weekend is fun and good weather. xoxo, Susie
DeleteOh my, so much here that I like! The beautiful landscape photos, the new garden flag! and the purse, wings, and cuff. All so CUTE. Looks like fun to me. xo
ReplyDeleteHi Judy, I use to get all my garden flags at the Earth Festival...but I do not go to that...too much wlaking...so I have been buying flags at Horton's. Some times I get good buys. They can be expensive. I like to have one that will last the whole season. I like those wings too. Blessings to you, hope you are having cooler weather. xoxo, Susie
DeleteGreat finds, Susie..Pretty skies..Looks like you are all ready for fall..
ReplyDeleteMissy, Today I have worn a sweater all day. It's chilly with the rain. It did turn out to be an all day type of rain. Got inside chores done. LOL. Blessings to you and your cute pets. xoxo, Susie
DeleteMy daughter would love that purse that you got for your granddaughter. Your fall display is beautiful and I am hoping to do one soon.
ReplyDeleteHi Carol, Oh I did not buy that little purse...it was a bit high. But I guess I could get for a birthday gift. LOL. I like to have those tiny gourds in all their funny shapes and colors. The white pumpkin are just adorable. Blessings to you, enjoy this weekend, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYour place is all decked out for Fall. You have a really good eye for always finding the neatest things. As always, beautiful sunsets and that's neat the way you caught the unusual colors. I would have had to catch a pic of the bean fields too! Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteNonnie, Ted was laughing at me trying to get my shoes on to get out and snap those sunset photos. I told him the skies change so quickly at sunset. LOL. I was amazed at the deep but bright colors. Blessings for a fun weekend, xoxo, Susie
DeleteLove your pumpkins and gourds..perfect on your porch. And that bag would have been my favorite too. It looks like FUN! Oh, and the postcards are neat! Enjoy your weekend! Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteHi Diane, I hope your weekend is fun too. I did enjoy decorating the porch. I love the white pumpkins and the little gourds of so many different colors. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYou take the best sunset photos, Susie! Your property and your area are just lovely!
ReplyDeleteWish you could have seen me trying to get my shoes on and out the door, before the sunset colors changed too quickly...you know it can change in 30 seconds. We are basically green here still. The crops have changed but not so much the trees. I hope you are feeling better honey, enjoy your weekend. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteWow what a gorgeous sunset. It really turned all the landscape a beautiful color. Love that old picture of Hortons. It has been around a long time! That garden flag is just so beautiful. Have a good evening!
ReplyDeleteKathy, I know you love sunsets too. :):) Some times they change so darn quickly you got to get right out side. I was just loving the colors. I like to have a new garden flag for in the back and a small one in the front...for every season. Blessings for a great weekend , xoxo, Susie
DeleteI like that slant of light picture. You made me think of bringing in my own hummingbird feeder and giving it a good wash. Thanks for the reminder! -Jenn
ReplyDeleteHi Jenn, I had not seen the hummers for about a week...so I thought it was time to put those feeders away. But we put out suet cakes and sunflower seeds. Blessings for a fun weekend, xoxo, Susie
DeleteGreat finds at Horton's. We've had rain today-light but enough to keep me from walking. Love your sunset! Have a great weekend and Happy October.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Noreen
Noreen, It did rain here almost the entire day...so no outside fun. Lots of indoor chores finished. :):) Hope your weekend is a fun one also. You are really seeing fall color there. but it's green here, other than the crops ready for harvest. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteCute fall decorations, Susie. But, I love that postcard. It captures a long ago moment in time.
ReplyDeleteHi Laurie, there are som big pictures on the side of our Dollar general store than show olden days in our town...I need to get pictures of those. I love seeing the clothing they wore then too. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYour fall decor is very pretty and welcoming. I have seen some unique and colorful gourds this year. I purchased some postcards of north GA this past week, also. The bracelet is very cute. Wishing you a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteI do like postcards and stationary...I write lost of cards and letters to family and friends. Hope you are having a great weekend there. It did rain most all day here. More tomorrow...then a couple nice days. Blessings dear friend, xoxo, Susie
DeleteSuch beautiful skies you get to enjoy, Susie! Just gorgeous! Someday, I'm going to find me a Horton's to visit!! Blessings for a great weekend, Cindy xo
ReplyDeleteCindy, Wheny ou find a sweet little place to shop...please show us some photos. I hope you are having time with your cute grandkids. We just love our to pieces. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteSo many pretty decorations! I love Hortons...vicariously through you!
ReplyDeleteLots of rain here, I wish I had done more patio clean up. I know we will have sun and high temps again but seeing everything soaking wet makes me think the dull wet weather will never go away.
Anyway...Happy Weekend, Susie!
Jane x
Blondie, You sound like me...I welcomed the cool down...but I am not a fan of wetness all the time. It's rained here on and off for two days . Yesterday was all day. More is forecast for today. I hope you have a fun weekend also. It may be a good movie or reading a good book weekend. :):) blessings,xoxo, Susie

Vivian, I do love all those pumpkins. As a kid I sure do not remember there being that many in the markets. I love to see the corn stalks tied to lamp post or porches, with mums and pumpkins near the stalks. Like you did your plastic pumpkins on a sheperd's hook, I have seen pumpkins in small to large sizes stacked together, like a totum..so cute. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

Yes, where did September go?? I can't believe it's already October. xoxox, Susie
DeleteWhat a lot of fun finds. I spend half my time at the thrift store and in the summer garage sales. So much fun!
ReplyDeleteNancy Jo
Hi Nancy, I really love junk stores. I remember the first one I was ever in...it was in Illinois. They even had a jar of pennies and I laughed and laughed about that. I took my husband to the Treasure Mart once and he found a brick that had the name Kokomo imprinted on it...it was 5 dollars and he tells me, "We are rich !" ...we had just done a patio in those very bricks. LOL. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteSusie, I can't tell which goodies I liked best because I liked many of them. I'll start with the metal angel wings, love those!! The purse is cute and made me smile, as I'm a bit of a gypsy myself. The old postcard is so cool of your town during the horse and buggy days. I've seen the book about my town when it first started, and I've always wanted to get one. I love the little white pumpkin you bought. I'm always torn between the white pumpkins and the orange pumpkins each year. I love them both. The sunsets are glorious, and you always get the best pics of them.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend, Susie. Your lawn and front yard looks so pretty with the Autumn glow in the distance.
love, ~Sheri
Sheri, I love the angels wings too. They have a big pair on the wall there. I liked the small white pumpkins to mix with my multi colored faux flowers on the porch. :) It rained all day Saturday and is gloomy this Sunday morning...I need sunshine. :):) Thanks for always leaving sweet comments on my blog. I truly love that we are freidns thru our blogging. I know we would be best neighbors...if we lived near each other. Blessings to you honey, love, xoxo, Susie
DeleteWhat adorable finds. Those paper Jack O Lanterns are just precious.
ReplyDeleteI'd love for you to link this to our fledgling link party. https://katietreasures.blogspot.com/2016/10/monday-social-address-link-party-4.html.
It's also a great place to build other forms of social media if you do those. We'd love to see you Susie.
