Back Door Guests are Best

















Today is Tabletop Tuesday hosted by Marty at A Stroll Thru Life and I am joining in a little late but joining. Today I will share with you my back door entry and a tiny part of my Fall decor.





















This is a favorite piece of furniture and it has been moved to many different rooms but I like it greeting my guests best.


















Being the Southerner that I am I love anything with a Magnolia on it. The wall hanging above was a gift from my husband many years ago. The lamp is an antique, probably the smallest lamp in my house and also the most valuable. It's value comes from having the matching finial still in tact. Of course, the photo of my Mom and Dad and also my oldest son are always on this table.




















The Pear with it's Fallish color was something I had no idea how I was going to use it. I had stored in the back of my head all those wonderful ideas shared by participants of Marty's Cloche Party and I put those ideas to good use.


I had some Fallish looking berries so I used those as well. I think it made for an interesting Fall table decor.




















I stepped back from the back door to get a better view of what my back door guests view as they walk inside.

Thank you for visiting my blog and do come again.

  1. Thanks for visiting HomeHinges earlier today and for commenting on my sister's post. I came by your site to return the visit and saw your beautiful front porch. I love the architecture of brick southern homes like yours, and I've been trying to figure out what to do with my wide, open porch. I'd like to do something like what you have. Love the little pumpkin in the cage too.

  2. Your chest is fabulous, I love it. Your vignette is so pretty. I love that you have pictures displayed. I always like that. Your wire cloche is gorgoeus and you've decorated it beautifully. Thanks so much for linking to TTT. Hugs, Marty

  4. This is such a pretty spot and a joy for all who enter your home. The basket of flowers on the door caught my eye. Even though our home is laid out in such a way as visitors always come through the front door, The sweet flower on my back (patio) door would be something that would bring pleasure to me :)
