Autumn on the Porch, Briar Hats, and a GIVEAWAY!

Pin It



Fall is officially here... well, sort of. The weather has still been warm but starting tomorrow it is supposed to drop. I can't wait! In the meantime we have been continuing to add some more autumn touches to our home. I made some new pillows but they looked too modern so I ended up using some burlap ones from our living room and the new fall flannel ones I made last week. We will have a few of those available for sale soon. And if you would like a chance to win the Girl Reading pillow cover scroll to the bottom of this post.

 













I also wanted to share some of these gorgeous shots by the talented Andrea Hallett.
Aren't these girls adorable?  

Our gray hats are now available again 
and the brown ones will be coming next week.








Thank you so much, Andrea!

  11. I've always loved your style. I like that you decorate with natural materials in a neutral palette inside for Fall. That's what I prefer too. You're always such an inspiration. Love that feather wreath. I should try to make one or find one for the inside of my front door. I like all of your white pumpkins too. The pictures of those girls are just amazing! They must be framed!

  15. Hi Jennifer! Would you ever consider selling the briar hat pattern in your shop? I'd love to knit some as Christmas gifts this year but have had trouble finding a child size pattern. They're so stinkin' cute! I hope you get your fall weather, it's been pretty nice now for a couple of weeks in Indiana.

    Cheers!
