Halloween Decor Galore!



I cannot tell you how much I {LOVE} this time of the year.....Halloween is my all time favorite!

I finally got my beloved black table all decked out (just to have my almost two year old want to destroy everything in site)  Maybe that's why I keep putting it off?!  Ha!

If any of you are interested in the print I have in my frame you can get it here for FREE!  There are also
lots of others for you to choose from :)
All props go to Summertime Designs for the graphics on my Halloween printables :)  She's just great!



I love these jars!  You can find the tutorial here on how I made them.  Please don't judge the post.  This was 4 years ago mind you....lol!  You can do so many
things with them as far as seasons and holidays.  A must have in your home decor in my opinion :)


You can never go wrong when glitter is involed.  I once saw a shirt that said
"Glitter is my favorite color"
I wanted it desperately, to bad it only came in sizes 2T - 6T :(  LOL!



I got this ADORABLE guy at a boutique here in Utah called "The Hive"


I just love all of his detail, especially the eyes!


Got this cute bunting there as well......


I got these paper mache boxes at Tai Pan many moons ago.....still one of my favorite
Halloween decorations! :)

Hope you all are enjoying decorating for the holidays as much as I am!

Stay tuned for my Organized Pantry reveal!  What a job that was.....WHEW!

Hi. It's me. It's been awhile.

Let's just start off by saying......1. I'm not even sure how to do this anymore and 2. I seriously doubt anyone is even following anymore :(

All I can say is Life Happens.  You have surgery, husband has surgery, you have a baby, baby has surgery, you start to have knee problems and should have knee surgery but you are SO DANG SICK of the word surgery!  Not to mention the bills :)  Fun times.  Fun times.

So.....if you are still lingering about I would love to hear from you.  Just a simple hi, I'm here comment would do my heart some good.

Moving on from my apologizes for being the suckiest (yep, I just made that a word) blogger to ever exist! lol
I'm just gonna dive in with something I know and love, Pinterest.  And share with you some of my favorite things I have seen on this beautiful, genius of a website.

I'm loving this ping pong ball pendant light.  Possibly for the office hanging above my desk.



Anyone else as obsessed with fonts?  I have hundreds.  I love how this gives you an idea of combos.



I think these colors together are AWESOME!



Now that school is back is session I know my kids would just love these for an after school snack!



My son would DIE.  He is obsessed with all things superhero, especially Iron Man (so we would have to figure that one out)


So there you have it.  A few of my Pinteresobsessed things :)

Give Thanks

I really can't believe it's November?! Anyone else a little shocked at this one?

Like many, this time is my most favorite time of the year!  I took a few pictures of how I like to decorate for the (I think) much overlooked holiday of Thanksgiving.








I may or may not have had Christmas music playing while I decorated....that's not against the rules is it?
...
After all, if they had Thanksgiving music I would have listened to that :)

Pomander Balls and Wedding Centerpieces

What in the world am I doing with all of these Pomander Balls you ask?
Well, they are part of centerpieces for my little brothers wedding that is next weekend!
I love how they turned out and they look so pretty.....these pictures don't really do anything justice.




Here is the centerpiece in it's entirety.  I got the ideas from my best friend - Pinterest :)
There are teardrop crystals and tiny white light strung throughout.  They look so pretty at night all lite up!




Grab some Mason jars and paint, paint away.  And after all that work - sand it off?!

Supplies you will need: flower punch, cute paper, Styrofoam balls (I used the 3"), paint that matches your paper.  Use this to paint the ball and lots and lots of pearl straight pins!

Start pinning your life away....lol

I hung these using some jute, tied a knot at the base and hot glued that to the ball.  After using these in the wedding we thought it would be pretty to use them to decorate up a Christmas tree!

This salad is to die for.  I made it, I loved it.  And so did everyone else who partook :)

Stay tuned for a tutorial on making cute felt bow hair clips!
