Happy Fall Everyone!
I think we're going to have normal Fall weather here in the Carolinas this year (crossing fingers).
The heat and humidity turned off a few weeks ago and now we're enjoying warm sunshine with cool breezes.
Cooler weather makes for gorgeous Fall colors. I'm hoping to see the trees at our mountain cottage turning vibrant oranges, reds and yellows. This photo was taken a few months after we bought our cozy cottage in early Fall of 2013.
Every year since then, I have been chasing this photo, but the colors have never rivaled the ones in this pic. One year kids were wearing short sleeves on Halloween. Another year we had very little rain. Heat and lack of rain aren't the ingredients needed for spectacular Fall colors.
The copious amounts of rain we've had in 2020 and the weather cooling off on time at the end of August, should produce fabulous Fall colors.
Again, CROSSING FINGERS
Then, of course, we have to be at our mountain house when peak color hits.
You can see more beautiful photos from that Fall HERE.
My favorite Fall porch at our previous house was this one filled with mums lining the steps. You can find more photos of this porch HERE.
A simple Fall craft with supplies you might already have around the house is a good way to decorate without having to spend any money, especially if money is tight this year. You can see that post HERE.
Setting a pretty Fall table is also a festive way to refresh the house for the Autumn season. Gather things you already have around the house, and if you have kids, let them decorate the table every day. You can find more pics of this tablescape HERE.
I love your porch. Pinned. The color brick on your house with a black front door is my favorite traditional house. thanks
ReplyDeleteThanks! The brick house with the black door was our previous house. I loved the whole house being brick. We lived there 16 years and it required no maintenance, except powerwashing the front steps once or twice.
