Two skirts will just mean we’ll have to put up another tree!.

Chris and Kennedy found these giant seed pods out on one of their walks so we stuck them in with the gourds.Lesson of the day: everything looks good if you stick it in a lantern.. Then I bought myself these mums and wrapped them in burlap.

Did you know these are perennials and you can just plant them in the ground after you’re done with them?I did not know that but it’s a pretty big revelation for me, I must say.. And that’s the mudroom.. Hope you enjoyed your little tour!This mason jar porch light is such a fun farmhouse style way to update an old porch light that you aren’t quite ready to replace.I’ve been working on something.. Maybe a little obsessively..

But who doesn’t love a good Fall entryway?.Well, I’m sure there are plenty of people who don’t care about a good entryway, but I’m not one those people..

I certainly don’t not love a good Fall entryway.. Know what I mean?.

I had this idea to replace the glass on our mudroom porch light with a mason jar, and it must have been a good one because within about five minutes, Chris had it done for me.Over the next couple of days, the natural tarnish filled in and the fake and the real came together in perfect harmony..

So what started out as an experiment and a maybe sorta OK temporary solution ended up being one of my very favorite parts of the room.. Now I just wish I had more brass knobs!So a couple of weeks ago, on a Saturday, we were sitting in the dining room eating our lunch.Chris was reading the paper.

He looked up and said semi-mockingly, “Oh no, we’re going to miss the Dover Cruise this weekend.” we were heading out to the beach in a couple of hours.. “What’s that?” “I don’t know.” he did know but didn’t feel like getting into it further.That’s kind of an annoying thing to do, isn’t it?
