A lil makeover




It's a BEAUTIFUL fall feeling day here in Ohio!! It was only in the mid forties this morning when I took Cody to school ~ he couldn't believe how cold it was! Said he was surprised it hadn't snowed! Lol. 

I started to do a little fall decorating yesterday & realized my stash of fall stuff was PITIFUL!! I had a total of 5 pumpkins, a sign, some paper cutouts of witches, a haunted house, a wreath, a candle ring that Linda had sent me & 2 leaf garlands! What the heck?!?!  Fall has always been my favorite time of year ~ I love the temps ~ my birthday is in the fall ~ but I've never really decorated much.  Christmas/Winter time is more my decorating season because I'm obsessed with snowmen!  So I tried to go to the thrift stores in town here yesterday but didn't find but 1 pumpkin & it wasn't very nice & they wanted $3 for it!! SO needless to say it's still sitting at the goodwill.  I'm hoping to find some this weekend ~ maybe I'll talk the hubby into taking me thrift store shopping in another town.

I did run to the dollar store & got some fall flowers for my door box & did a little makeover on it. 

Before:
I thought I had one of it on the door but I can't find it! lol

After:

I think it turned out ok ~ might tweak it a lil bit later on -thought I'd see how I like it for a few days first.  Not bad for $6 I thought. :O)

Well that's all I've got today.  Hope you are having a beautiful day wherever you are!
