I can’t resist another autumn house. It’s that time of year! The pattern for this Mini size autumn house is pattern #091718. My pattern numbers are the dates I drew the patterns. I drew this pattern September 17, 2018. It’s a traditional house with a large front yard, full of flowers and fallen leaves. Perfect […]
These autumn putz houses are listed in my Etsy shop. Two autumn houses, two looks. One with an autumn tree, one without. The bases on both houses are made from vertical greeting cards, rather than horizontal cards. If the house isn’t more than three inches wide, it should fit well on a vertical card. Wider […]

It waited for us, no problem… She’s twittering. 🙂 The trees were loaded… …and the apples were beautiful… …not to mention delicious. The […]
I took a little stroll around the yard yesterday, in the late afternoon. I’d been painting chairs and needed to get outside and away from renovating for a while. I hate missing the perfect weather we’ve been having, so out I went. Here are a few pictures from the yard. Can dogwood leaves look any […]
The air has taken on that “autumn feel.” Sort of golden, and a little dusty and sweet somehow. Lots of pretty things yet to see when we walk the yard. The hydrangeas were beautiful this year. Most are fading to a soft rosy pink and a pretty green color. I want to pick some for […]
Cathy, this one’s for you. Savor autumn. ~~Rhonda 🙂 A walk through the little woods behind our house… Goldenrod. Elderberry bush sans elderberries…isn’t the pinky red a beautiful color? The sassafras are beautiful every year. I love to take pictures at the end of the day. The soft light is so pretty on everything. The […]
