It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, well sort of.  At least my house is full of crafty Christmas projects and jewelry creations for my shop.  And I was so happy this morning when I turned on my radio on the way to work one of our radio stations is already planning Christmas music!!  I sang my little heart out the entire drive to work. 

I'm already strategically planning out our Christmas decorating frenzy set for next Friday morning.  We have finally had a couple of days of cool fall weather, but I still can't believe that next Thursday is Thanksgiving and we will be decorating for Christmas a week from today!  Where did the year go?

Getting ready for Halloween

Ok, so by now I have usually gone through tons of Halloween DIY inspiration and started creating new spooky décor for my house. In fact by now I have at least decorated my front porch for Fall. But…. this year I am really lacking the humph to get started, maybe because it is still around 100 degrees here and my lovely rose bushes and butterfly bushes have now died.


But, at least I have created a few chic Halloween celebration items for my Etsy Shop, inlcuding fun Spooky Chic Gift / Hang Tags and one of a kind assemblage jewelry pieces.
