EEEK!!

So I've been into this wreath-mood lately. I even checked out a bunch of books at the library on it. I've just found them so easy to make but they make such a huge impression. Like these I made today!


These spooky spiderweb wreaths would make any front door scary enough for those Trick-or-Treaters on Halloween. I made them with deer-moss and spider rings I picked up at the Dollar Store.
The how-to can be found on Martha Stewart's website.

Halloween is only 20 days away... So get on the little projects like this to make your house stand out as the creepiest on the block.

Mums... check! Pumpkin.... check!

Stopped by the Pumpkin Patch after work today. Got all the necessities for a festive front porch.
Check out these pumpkins I picked up!



I've never even see an orange and white speckled pumpkin but I LOVE it! Don't you agree?!

Oh and yes I made a Halloween wreath this past weekend. I found this tutorial on Better Homes and Gardens website. Here is what I ended up with...



So I guess I would be all ready for some Trick-or-Treaters.... IF we weren't going to be in AUBURN! We've got a big weekend planned to spend some quality time in the Hay Fields with some of my favorite people... my Mangos! (an explanation to come at a later time)

Till next time, Happy Harvesting :)

Ahhhh... Fall

October is now upon us and with that comes fall... unless of course you live where I live and its still pretty much summer but never the less it's the fall time of year and with that comes some of my favorite things...

of course, AUBURN FOOTBALL


but also fall decorations! So lets get those decorations out and up! I've put up my fall wreath, garland, and of course orange lights. I love coming home to see my door lit up.


I made this last year but I'm kind of really wanting a Halloween wreath. I think I might go out and get the stuff in the morning :)

Having you been wanting one too? Then make one! Its sooo easy :) get some ideas/inspiration/tutorials HERE.   Good luck and have fun!
