Fall Garden

I had a fun day on Thursday. My friend Jill and I headed out to shop a little in the afternoon.

First stop was Wilshire Garden Market.

This little garden store always has special things for each season.

We were greeted at the front door by all those wonderful faux pumpkins.

That's a very pretty fall pillow. I can just imagine it in my bench on the front porch.

I especially liked this display of small mercury glass votives on a silver tray.

Oh...I'll be copying this idea in my house for sure!

I love the lamps they carry at the market. These stone baluster lamps are indoor/outdoor. 

The pumpkin pillows would add fall to a garden room.

Here we are with a larger version of the indoor/outdoor lamps.

I really like their chunky shape.

Notice the lamps above in this display?

Sweet little urns create the bases.

These would really look nice on a kitchen counter.

Fun birdcage outdoor pillow.

I found these little gnome house fronts delightful.

Just prop one in front of your favorite tree and it's an instant gnome home.

There are lots of fountain pots at the store.

This is a new one.

Love the color combination. That turquoise on top was really vibrant. 

Outside the bougainvillea is doing well. I asked how they wintered it and was told they 

bring it inside into the back storage room near a window.

Outside there were real pumpkins scattered among the pots.

Pretty little fairy house nestled in a pot.

Isn't the plumbago pretty planted in the blue pots?

I adore plumbago! I have two large ones in the corners of my deck.

Anyone have a suggestion as to how I over winter it?

Well, I could have hung out all day at this store but after we did this.

It was on to The Feathered Nest. 

If you live in the Oklahoma City area be sure to run by Wilshire Garden Market. 

See their website - here.

You'll be glad you did. 

Personally, I could hang out on their patio all day.

Upon the ground.

Why do you frown, frown?

Is something wrong

in Snail Town?

Something is wrong in Snail Town! It's invaded by weenies...it becomes Weenie Town!

Little snail surrounded by Plumbago in the corner of my deck.

I just can't seem to resist decorative snails in the garden.

This one found on half price at Hobby Lobby. 

I love the turquoise shell of course. 

That is the reason I bought him.

Lots of good photos of Franklin today.

He loves to sit up on the patio table and look over the yard.

What a face! Dear boy.

Looking for squirrels

He'll sit up here for ages.

I think he's part cat with the way he loves to be up high.

He thinks this is a viewing platform, not a dining table.
