Blue Pumpkin Centerpiece



I was out thrift shopping a couple of weeks ago when I ran across these very cool ceramic pumpkins.  Now, granted, they didn't look like much in the thrift store - being all brown and shiny but, I knew I could make them something totally different that would fit into the decor of our home.  Most of my Fall decor is done with the amazing colors Mother Nature sets before us at this time of year - yellows, oranges, rusts, and browns. But, sometimes I like to switch things up a bit.  This year I am doing a lot of neutrals in my living/dining room with some touches of blue.  So, I decided to paint these not so pretty brown pumpkins blue.

Fall in the Entry and the Home for Fall Blog Hop

Good Morning everyone.  We are well into Fall now and finally the temperatures here agree with the season - this morning it was 57 degrees - yay, sweater weather.  I have been waiting for this for a while now.  
Today I am joining several other bloggers in the Blogtalk blog hop 

           "Home for Fall".

DIY BOO Sign

Hi everyone.  After all the rain we received two weekends ago would you believe it rained most of the day again this past Saturday. The weatherman stated that South Carolina is officially out of its drought conditions now. I would hope so after all this.  Anyway, today I thought I would share a little BOO Sign that Miss A and I did on Saturday to pass the boredom brought on by all the rain.

Fall Mantel for 2015

Good morning everyone.  Cooler temperatures have found their way here and although it isn't cold it's definitely better than the high 80's we were having.  Fall was far from my mind this year as most of you know. However,  I love Fall so much I had to incorporate it into our home. So simplicity was my main goal.  Today I am going to share our 2015 Fall Mantel with you.
