Shut the Front Door!




It was sunny this morning
but now it's gray 
with a little rain
mixed in here and there.

Wanted to share 
some of the outside scenes
here at the Polohouse.








Oops. Should have hidden the orange twine there holding the cornstalks!

















So sorry, 
but I haven't been online much lately.

Took on a full time design job working
for a friend who just bought
a French-style country house
and I am helping her to decorate it!

Will share some pics on that 
and the little fall scene
on my back porch next time.

See you soon!



See you soon friend! xoxoxoxox

  17. I so enjoyed seeing your outside fall decor. Just as pretty as I would have expected.

    Do you remember where you got the large black urn? We are looking for some for our church.

  19. All of your autumn decorations are so pretty. Love that wheelbarrow with the feed sack hanging out of it! We had some corn stalks in the garden in August. Leo burned them before I could save a few for decorating!

  24. Alison, if you see some strange "bottle" blonde lurking outside of your front entry and taking pictures and notes, don't worry, it's just me! LOL. Even your front entry belongs in a magazine ... the touches of Fall are festive and gorgeous! Love seeing your stunning grounds, too. And, okay, who get to rake or blow all the pretty leaves I see on your driveway? Have fun decorating ... can't wait to see pics. xo

  26. Hi Alison. Decorating your friend's house sounds like a lot of fun! Even better that you are getting paid for it. Can't wait to see the pictures.

    In the meantime, your outdoor pictures are wonderful to enjoy. I love the horse in the flowers, but especially appreciate how you used all the fall colors instead of just orange.


    Have a wonderful weekend Alison!
