Fall Is Near...

Oh the most wonderful time of year... it is the season I said "I Do," it is full of color, the weather is beautiful, smores are eaten, bonfires begin churning, friends and families have picnics, the buggies are almost gone, and it is a time to be thankful! I LOVE FALL... I can say without in hesitancy that it is my most favorite time of year! I can't hardly wait to start the cider, make caramel apples, sit snuggled by the fire with my honey, watch as the autumn leaves fall from the trees.... oh I just love it all! I especially can't wait to celebrate Our 1 Year Anniversary in the Smoky Mountains in the peak season of Fall! Oh how great it will be!

Well, in preparation of Fall... I have slowly started changing things around my house. There will be many more posts to come on this... but for now... here is a start!

You remember that DIY Wreath we did months ago that many of you loved... well take that same wreath, do a little tweaking of colors and create this....

Any vases laying around the house??? Through some orangy, red, yellow flowers in there and voila you have a fallish look on your coffee table!

Bunting... oh I LOVE bunting! I took a simple triangle and made a pattern to cut fabric. I had ld scraps lying around, therefore I decided to collaberate some fun fall colors and make some bunting! Measure off your wall, find some old string-rope (I used hemph), simple cut out how many triangles of fabric you will need and fold the backing around the rope, hot glue it and then voila- nail it to your wall and you have transformed a regular room to look fallish!

Oh, do not forget the mums! I started with a few yellow, but am out to get more burnt red colors too... but to start plant you some mums to spice up your front yard!

The scarecrows have made it out of the back closet just haven't found their grounding yet... we will though! And I will let you know how it goes!

Did I mention how big our 'puppy' Charlie is getting? He is huge! And for all those that love first day of school pics... Here is one of me into nursing school!

Have a great week! Hope this helps in brewing your mind toward Fall!
