Let the Fall decorating begin!!

Yes, Fall has finally arrived!!!  It's been a long drawn out summer....actually starting in February.  Not really, but the clear blue skies and warm weather started in February and we are just now starting to get down into the 60's and 50's.   Yesterday, was in the 70's so it's still not our typical Fall.  But, who's complaining?

I decided to get some fall decorating done.  I don't do an overabundance of decorating but one thing I did do, this year, was to make myself a framed printable that I found online.

I went to Pinterest and just typed in "fall printables" and came up with a boatload of them.  I chose my printable and printed it off onto Very Vanilla card stock and put it into a frame that I happened to have out in the garage.  I decided that I might like it better if I had a larger frame and had a piece of coordinated card stock as a mat behind the printable.

So, yesterday, I went to the Goodwill in the next town and I found several frames that might work.  :-)  I'll see if I like it better that way.

While I was out, I found some other fall 'buys'.  Every thrift store I went to, had their Halloween/Fall items displayed prominently.  I didn't want to bring home more 'stuff' just because it was on sale.  But, couldn't resist these things.

 I got a pair of these wall sconces.  $1 each.  Hmmmmm, I don't even use tapered candles anymore but oh well, they are still cute.


 This cute glass Pumpkin cookie jar was $5.  Probably wouldn't have paid that much at a yard sale but the money was going to help shelter animals, and I liked it....so felt it was a good purchase.


A nice big platter for $1.

Can't wait to see what they'll have for Christmas decor!

Have a great day!!!

Saturday's share


Well, it wasn't ME...this time. It is Blogger.....they are having problems with their scheduled posts. So, hopefully I can remember to come and actually POST these silly things :-)

Here is my share for today!
This is a sorta CASE from the Inspiration Avenue catalog, page 21. I say sorta cased...because her card was bigger and she used brads. I give her credit....even tho I don't know who submitted it.

Just use the Amelia papers and stamp the pumpkin from the Give Thanks set and cut it out and layer. So easy and FUN to do.

Hugs,
Char
