Fall is my favorite season for making wreaths and arrangements. The colors are endless, and the variety of foliage and flower allow you to blend together sublime or brilliantly colored combinations. With all these options for inspiration, it can be difficult to know where to start when you look at your stash of florals or try to choose which to purchase. Which color to highlight this time? Which ones should I put together? You can scour Pinterest for ideas but the best are right outside your door. A few steps away, we found a constantly evolving source of color combinations. Ok, maybe the last one won’t make a great wreath and refuses to sit still long enough for a table arrangement. Luckily plants, grasses, leaves and flowers are more cooperative – and appropriate! – than a cat!

There was a lot of clamor and noise coming from the back this morning. The sound of motors, of equipment moving along, getting into position. Were my neighbors embarking on a project? Was the city trimming trees or doing roadwork? I open the backdoor, looking to see what was going on. Nothing in the neighbor’s yard, nothing in the street. Puzzled, I glance around. The cat comes out, sliding by to go down the steps. I reach to grab him, when I finally see what caused the racket. Now sitting quietly on the steps, the tractors had returned from the fair. They don’t like to be idle and they’ll start rumbling soon if they don’t find work. They aren’t, however, much use moving dirt. Their area of expertise is the decorative arts and they’re ready to go to work when you are!
A heathered yellow background shows off the detail on the green truck, who specializes in farm decor and summer and spring projects.
Red likes to work in Christmas projects, but feels a red tractor ribbon is equally at home in summer.
Green hastens to point out that green tractors and Christmas are a natural fit and that green is the color of new leaves in spring.
and they brought back a new friend, the red truck. Equally ready to work in any season!
Another glance and I saw their Pop, a grand green and yellow tractor, off to the side, happy to welcome them back.

Six new Christmas ribbons arrived the other day from luxury ribbon company, d.stevens. All exceeded our expectations! Gorgeous and elegant, subtle and glittery, the brand new line of Birch Bark ribbons update the popular rustic look for holiday decorating. Frosted “Cream” has iridescent glitter that mimics iced branches, excellent for designs meant to stay after New Year’s. “Platinum” brings a little more punch with a darker toned glitter that brings out the tan shades of the ribbon. Both come in a 2 1/2″ and 4″ width.
Buffalo checks are among the most popular and enduring Christmas patterns. Buffalo checks combined with the legendary color duo of black and white? Bold and dramatic ribbons that both stand out and will stay in fashion for years. d. stevens ribbons “Buffalo Black” and “Dupioni Buffalo” give you a choice between down-home, warm and cozy flannel or uptown, sophisticated and glamorous silk look fabric.
Our ribbon combo of the day shouts summer! Bright sunlit days, resting on the porch, warm twilight evenings, hot dogs and hamburgers on the grill. Can you say Picnic? In today’s combo, glittering red polka dots, bright moss green gingham, and ladybug check join together, jetting off to Iowa. “Dots In A Line”, “Great Gingham Moss”, and “Ladybug Check”: a perky and cheery summer combo!
Bringing the sparkle is “Dots In A Line”, with red glitter dots lining up in the center, edged with a red and white striped pattern on white faux linen. As this combo shows, the pattern shines for summer projects and, of course, Christmas!
Don’t all good summer designs need a check? One of our extensive collection of gingham offerings, “Great Gingham Moss”, with bright green and white, comes in two widths. There’s the 2 1/2″ used in today’s combo plus a 1 1/2″ width. You can choose 3 yard increments or ten yard lengths.
Prefer a narrower 1 1/2 inch width? Again, you can purchase in 3 yard increments and 10 yard lengths.
Bringing this trio together is the always stately but fun, Lady Bug, a 2 1/2″ wide satin ribbon (made in the U.S.). She contrasts nicely on her green checked field, don’t you think?
