Simple Fall Porch Decor

Decorating Your Porch For Fall

Your fall decor does not have to be expensive or time consuming 

Sometimes simple....makes a bigger statement

We all love Mums and White Pumpkins are Simply Beautiful

I have an advantage since we do not use our front door, my options are limitless.  

My house is very close to a well traveled road...

so I like to have a large display that can be seen easily by passer-by's.

 I can center my display on the porch for more impact.

 A couple of galvanized buckets and a wicker rocker

A simple and yet beautiful display 

that will last through the fall

Vintage Drop Leaf Table & Other Stuff

From Drab to Fab

I love the way this vintage drop leaf table came out. 

It was a black, boring, ugly table....now it's fabulous. 

Perfect for any small space, as it folds into such a tiny footprint....

you can virtually fit it anywhere.

 

It was originally a semi gloss black color....yuk!

No need for sanding.  I used Aura flat Matte finish with the primer included in the paint

 

Benjamin Moore #1506 Polar Frost 
It's a soft grey green color

I only needed one coat and then just a spot touch up coat. 

When that was dry, I sanded the top and the edges until I got the look I wanted. 
The black layer underneath showed through nicely and made it interesting. 

I then put a coat of water based polyurethane on top, for durability....Perfection!

 

 

I am also excited about my recent finds for the Barn. 

 After the Barn Sale, I was kind of  low on merchandise

 but over these last few weeks

 I have managed to restock with tons of exciting and interesting items.

 

These great end tables....a coat of paint and some new handles....Charming

 

Lots and lots of Ironstone

 

I bought out an entire flower frog collection

 

And this metal basket is one of my favorite finds

There is much more to see
