I couldn't wait to show you guys the flower pouch I found for the front door. They were available in white and yellow too, but of course I picked a pink one! |
I just love it......it's such a nice change from my normal fall faux flower wreath. |
The mum's are planted in a thick black plastic pouch with a hanger at the top. |
My mum pouch is full of blooms and lots of buds for future flowers. The pouch can also be laid on it's back to make a gorgeous centerpiece to use in a fall tablescape. |
$13.95.......what a buy! I found it at Sutherland's Home Improvement Center in Amarillo Texas. |
I tucked in some ribbon and cotton bolls just to add some different textures to my mum pouch. |
H built the piece of furniture that sits next to the front door. He married a vintage dresser bottom to a empty mirror frame .......and I'm not sure what else he put on it....lol! |
I have a sweet grey mouse and her white duck to meet you at the door........ |
Our drive is lined with Bradford pear trees, so I clipped a few small limbs to set my pears on. |
These pears won't be on the porch long before they are all EATEN...... |
Til Next Time....... |
Hi Penny! I've seen petunia pouches before, but never a mum pouch - I have to say I adore it! Your sweet mouse on the furniture piece is adorable. Jane
ReplyDeleteI love it!!
ReplyDeletePenny,
ReplyDeleteWhat a cleaver idea. I love mums they last so long and really give a lift when everything is dying from Summer. I love that pink too and I am not a pink person. I have a sister that would love this too and she is a big pink fan. You give me great ideas to use the little nick nacks I have and love and wouldn't part with. We sure wouldn't be paying those reasonable prices for flowers here in Colorado. Thank you for sharing and making my day.

Penny, I can't believe the prices on the mums you bought, especially the pouch. I wouldn't expect to find anything that large--the pots, too--for those low prices up here in Michigan.
ReplyDeleteIt all looks spectacular and your porch is a feast for the eyes. The mums are one of my favorite shades of pink. My dear mom was a pink gal, too. She even had a pink kitchen sink and oven and I think a gas cook top, too.

Penny,
ReplyDeleteI thought my Tri colored mums were not bad at $6.99 a pot but $3.50 each is amazing! Joe paid $3.00 for the small mums I wanted at Lowes and they are about a quarter the size of yours... I do bags with impatiens for the Summer but I never heard of mum bags! Beautiful and of course, it would be pink!!! I would not expect it to be any other color but pink!! LOL!
Hugs,
Deb
The mums are just gorgeous.
