Be Inspired #159: Farmhouse Porch Decor

Welcome to Be Inspired!

Right now I'm sort of in "limbo" with the roof overhaul. The roof is done and it turned out great, but the new gutter system won't go in until next week, so that means that I STILL can't do any outdoor decorating! I'm so thankful for the new roof, but shoot, it's messing with my outdoor Fall plans!

So I'm having to live vicariously through all of you out there. When I saw Denise's amazing Farmhouse Fall Porch Decor from Pink Postcard, I just had to imagine sitting out there and enjoying it all. So many fun areas and elements on her porch: from the wonderful porch swing with great Fall pillows to the Baker's Rack. I love it all!







How fun is this? 
Amber's found deer looks right at home in this great vignette.
Check out the Harvest Mantel and Woodland Pets at
Junkaholics Unanimous.





Suzanne from Bits of Me used beautiful drying Hydrangeas and naturals
with this great old tin, for an amazing floral arrangement.




You'll want to check out this mega Barnwood Chalkboard from
Stephanie at Rose Petals and Rust
love the ladder too!



Peggy from Garden House Living rescued an old basket
 with a great burlap and stenciled liner.
Love that ribbon fringe!



And here are two fun Fall "Wreaths":

Grain Sieve Wreath from Melinda at The Refeathered Roost



and Julie from Tattered Tiques
with her wreath made from Bushel Basket Lids
I've not seen this before and I thought it was super cool way
to use a vintage base for something unique and different.




Elizabeth from Pine Cones and Acorns
has my mouth watering for Pumpkin Tortellini.



And take a look at Kathy's Autumn Spice Cake
from A Delightsome Life...yum.

thanks gals, for all the inspiration!

And, thanks so much to each of you who took the time to link up with a backlink already in your post last week. It was so nice visiting, seeing a link there. I don't like having to jump through hoops, so this week I'm going back to the regular link up. Please, just take a minute to link back to this post. Remember, I can't feature you if there isn't a link within your individual post.

Hope you'll join in for the Fabulous Fall Fun!


Have a great weekend,

    Hello Debra,
    Oh, I can empathize. There are a few things I'd love to share - outdoors, but we're mid project on a few things and delayed because we have a Yellow Jacket nest in the front of the house, Dearest has been, as he put it, 'shot' once already...so we putter on to other projects and create some as well :)
    Always a delight to join your party - I do appreciate you hosting,
    Kathy

    I haven't been able to decorate outside yet either Debra, you're not the only one! Summer is dragging on forever here in Dallas. Maybe next week we can both get ours done :) Thanks for hosting!

    I don't really decorate outside much - I do most of mine on the inside... hopefully you will soon be able to get yours done... I do wish I had a porch such as this to relax on it is quite lovely... thanks for hosting. Have a fantastic day... Cathy

    Thanks so much again, Debra, for featuring my grain sieve fall wreath. I can sympathize with you...we had our shingles and gutters replaced after a hail storm last spring. I could still hear the hammering two days after they left...but they did keep a pretty steady rhythm!

    debra, i don't know how you do it? but you keep up such a wonderful blog and blog parties too and you take the time to visit me too...i sure do appreciate it, dearest. i love the wreath using a sieve and the one using a barrel top....both have inspired me. we had a roof redone once where they had to remove the old shingles first and i was so upset because they just threw all the old shingles right into my garden AND they were creepy guys too.
    happy fall!

    I almost had a nervous breakdown when we got our roof done with all the banging and stuff, but it will be worth it for you in the end. And then think of all the fun decorating posts you can do all in a row!

    I know just how you feel, Debra. We just started building a screened porch in our backyard, and i'm dying o decorate it for fall, but right now it's just an open deck, no roof or walls/screen, so can't really put anything out yet. Agh! Thanks for hosting the party. Take care - Dawn @ We Call It Junkin.com
