From the Front Porch

Happy Sunday from the front porch. We hope you’ve had a fabulous weekend.  Thanks so much for making us part of your day!

I’ll keep it short today because I’ve been road tripping down to the annual Fall in the Fields event at Renninger’s in Mount Dora with my Mom.

This was the first time we’ve ever attended and we both had fun.  Several of the summer vendors invited us and it was great to see all the Fall displays they had created. 

I’ll share more later in the week but this gourd display was one of our favorites!

These pretty fabric pumpkins  could be used in so many different places around the house.

Hoop wreaths have been around for a while now but I’ve never seen one using these before.  If orange pumpkins and leaves aren’t typically your thing, you might want to give this fresh take on Fall a try.
