Mmmm... Fall


I love fall! There are so many things to love and be grateful this season. I love the crisp air, Vibrant Colors on the mountain and trees, Rainy days (like today), Jumping into a cold bed and snuggling, Hot chocolate, Pumpkin pie, spices, Football season, Carving pumpkins, Our favorite shows come back on T.V., Camp fires, General Conference, Apple crisps with ice cream, Turning the heat on for the first time since early spring, Over sized hoodies and sweaters! Oh the list could go on forever!

 Here is your Friday Flower  more like Decor Tip!  One of my favorite things to do during the fall is to decorate! I am a very earthy person and also a very cheap "on a  budget" kind of person as well. So.... I gathered things from outside!  My mom has these amazing giant acorns all over. Here is a wreath I made for only 6 bucks!
Wreath: $3
Artificial Sticks: $3
Bow: FREE extra ribbon from my collection 
Acorns: FREE 

Ok... My next project
So if you dont need a wreath, maybe you will like this... I needed something for my very large ottoman.
This is turned out so fun and it cost about $7 Tops!


Glas Vases: FREE what I had in the house. 
Candles: $0.50 each
Rocks: $1 at dollar tree
Moss: $4 can find it at any local craft store 
Acorns: FREE 
Mini Pumpkins: FREE grew them in our garden
Burlap: $1.35 per yard @ Walmart

Not the most fancy schmancy of all decor, but I had to use what I had. It was a lot of fun! Maybe if you are in the mood to be festive, all you need to do is go through some of your stuff! Mother nature sure has lots of fun stuff to play with! Have a great weekend everyone and be safe during your adventures whatever they may be!
