I always put something on my front step for autumn (well, for any season for that matter). Today I dragged my willow bench, my big barrel and my pot of tansy onto the veranda. My Rustic, Country, Whole Grain Wreath graces my front door now, and I set my dried thyme wreath on the willow bench with a pot of globe thistle and some gourds. The step gets covered in leaves this time of year and we have our wood stacked and ready for winter.
Starting to feel cozy . . .

aren’t these gourds amazing? we got them at our local U-pick for $2.50/ea |

my wreaths – the one on the bench is made from thyme from my garden and my rustic country door wreath is oats |
