Fall Outdoor Decor

September 09, 2012
When I awoke this morning the temperature outside was 37 degrees.

Fall is here in Northern Minnesota. The truth is my outdoor autumn decorations are always taken down and packed away for winter right after Halloween. Why? My husband will be deer hunting for two weeks in early November, and many times we have snow during deer season. Last year we hardly had any snow, but we have had major snow storms as early as Halloween.

So today my white chippy chair goes from summer toolbox...

To a colorful harvest pumpkin.

And my white picket shelf goes from roosters...

To dollar store pumpkins on a black checked runner.

A few sunflowers brighten up the patio.

And a country scarecrow takes his place in the corner.




One side of my covered patio is done. The other side is coming soon.

  1. Carlene ~ I know what you mean. In Ontario we are not that bad, but Mr. Vintage does nothing but talk about deer season right now. Getting pumped up. I do fall now because I feel the nesting instinct. Love your fall decor. Love the scarecrow ;-)

  2. Boy, our winters here in IL don't come that quick. But I am looking forward to winter after this horrible long heat ridden, drought stricken horrible summer. Can you tell I didn't enjoy summer this year :-}. I love you transitioned your porch from summer to fall. Very pretty and love the scarecrow, but I especially like the "pig" sign. Thanks for sharing your creative inspiration with Sunday’s Best – you helped make the party a success!

  5. Love the changing chair. Don't get ever get around to Fall decorating. No one is sure when Fall really is around here. It's pretty much same ole, same ole. Again, I'll just come by and pretend it's cooler and that there are changes by looking at your decorational changes!

  14. Carlene,
    Love your outdoor Fall decor!
    37 degrees!!! It is supposed to go down as low as the high 40's and low 50's the next few mornings ...
    We will not see temps. in the 30's here until Nov. but it could come earlier in late Oct...
    We had 9 inches of snow on Oct. 30 last year and then only one other snow storm after that!!
    I don't think we are going to be so lucky this year though...

    Hugs,

    Deb

  20. So cute! Love the chair and how you can re-use it for the seasons! I know what you mean about having to pack it away right after Halloween. We are in Northern Michigan and the season changes quickly. We have to bundle things up and put things in storage to prepare for the winter. Anyway, your entryway is adorable...enjoy!

  25. I am just waiting for temperatures below the 90's to take this same leap. But I have always loved "the changing of the guard" no matter what season it is.

    Thanks ~ Mary
