This is my hometown...

Come and join Addi and I on a walking tour of our home town....
the beautiful colors behind our garden gate....
notice my bay windows? they are clean! put the storm windows on yesterday and washed everything in and out...I love that fresh clean vision out my front windows! fall is the best.
Out the front door we go......

Our church on the hill....
Main street u.s.a. (sorry this is so blurry)
beautiful mums adorn the shops...
this is the old store I used to sell antiques at, now a floral shop...
A quaint little homestead in the middle of town...just blocks away from us.
I hope you enjoyed our little tour! Have a great fall weekend! take care, Gail

How to reupholster a ottoman

It was the perfect day to recover my ottoman....above is the before photo.
I took off the old cover and used it as a pattern to cut out my new fabric...
pinned it together and sewed it up! I just copied the old one....
tipped it upside down and stapled the fabric to the bottom.....I like it!
I put my feet up with my favorite book and snuggled up next to the fire, a perfect ending to a dreary Sunday! I hope your Sunday was a pleasant one!

bits and pieces of fall,,,

a nest filled with little pumpkins on my side table.....
monogrammed pumpkins on the front steps....
table and chairs in my garden, waiting for a harvest feast...
old cupboard door with harvest moon inn painted on it...bought at mustard moon in Carver...
Happy Halloween!

It's here...

Happy Autumn!

Pumpkin Patch!

Bittersweet
