Fall on the Patio and Around the Pond

Even though we are still having temps in the 80's and the humidity has been awful too, it is Fall out on the patio. I thought I would show you around because I may change it up when the weather gets a little cooler and we can use the fire pit!!! I will change out the pillows and bring out some throws etc. But for now here it is:) As you walk out to the deck, the table is right there. Last weekend we had Colleen for the weekend and one of the things we did was, she helped "Tata" carve a pumpkin.
 This is a great space to sit and read in the afternoon.
 The seat is a glider, which I love.
 The leaf pillows came from Kirklands a few years ago.

 I don't remember where this pillow came from.
 This was from Christmas Tree Shops several years ago.
 I love this guy from Lowes 3 years ago.

 On the steps are 3 solar lanterns that I put mini pumpkins next to. Then I got $1.00 mums from Lowes for the pots.

 Some of the mums have been replaced since I took these shots as they were looking very tired. I think it is too hot for them!



 Let's look around the pond.

 The lavender is growing great this year!

 The water lilies are still blooming and Joe is thrilled since he repotted them about a month ago!


 Marigolds line the stone wall.

More marigolds on this side too.

 Water lilies in Oct!!
 The fish like to play in the waterfall.

 This mum has come back every year since we planted it 4 years ago!

I LOVE the color!

A New Table for 2!!!

I showed you our everyday table last week but I said it was "for now". You know I love to change things up, gotta keep it interesting. Plus I love to USE what I have! I have this great runner featuring beautiful pumpkins, so pumpkins came to the table! I made a mini stack of the small orange pumpkins.
 I am using my tiny chair napkin rings and a teeny pumpkin sits on the chair seat!
 My wrought iron candle holder, shaped like a pumpkin, from Kirklands, years ago, is my centerpiece. I like to be able to light the candle at dinner.
 These glass pumpkins with tea lights in them have stayed. And that plant in the background has been moved. I am taking Yvonne's advice and pairing down some spaces.
 This is how the table started but then I decided to do a stack of plates too.
 I am using a regular placemat,  round placemat, a burlap charger, a leaf dinner plate and my pumpkin salad plate. On top of al that is a small clay pot embellished with 2 candle rings and a small faux pumpkin.
 I saw this in a store and loved the idea!
 This placemat is plastic and I got them at the grocery store. SOMEONE I know can make a mess so this keeps things safe:)
 I think it looks great with the runner.
 I forget where I got these dishes, several years ago.
 The pumpkin salad plates I have had for years too! I THINK they may have come from Walmart?

 An orange and a tan napkin are gathered together.
 You can see here that I brought my pottery vase of leaves back and it sits in front of the windows. It gives us some privacy while eating dinner, now that it gets dark so early:(:(  I am glad I removed that plant, it was too cluttered looking.
