Use What You’ve Got (or Can Find)

I love so many things about fall, but one thing that I especially love is that fall “decor” is all over outside and it’s free. Case in point:

Look what we found at a park area on a walk yesterday
Osage Oranges – also known as Horse-Apples
We started loading them up in our stroller and a lady came running out of her house with a bag to snag some up too – I think she thought we were going to take all the good ones (there were hundreds of them). She said that Martha uses them to decorate with – and I thought I was all clever to grab the horse-apples.
I tucked them in with my mum planters – love the contrast of the bright green and dark pink (can’t wait for the mums to pop open). Homey goodness on the porch – love it!
What’s your favorite “find” for adding a bit of homey goodness inside or out?
