More Fall Decor

I am enjoying the cooler temperatures here in Southern Illinois. I love being able to have my windows open and turn off the air conditioner.
I made this little sign to hang on the front deck. I distressed it more than I usually do, but I like the way it turned out.

I added a little bow for decoration.

I can't wait to watch Glee tonight!  Do any of you watch Glee?

Wall Bucket

I’ve been busy working on Fall decor and I remembered I hadn’t shown you my wall bucket yet. I originally got two of these wall buckets at a yard sale for free and I used one for Christmas last year, but hadn’t touched the other one. Here is the before..

It was in pretty rough shape.
And the after….

I painted it brown and rubbed some stain on it and it turned a wonderful copper color.

I picked the weeds out of my yard this morning. Yes I need to mow the yard…  I don’t know what they’re called, but I’ve been calling them cat bait since the cats wont leave them alone.

I am linking to the Show and Share Day at Just a Girl.

Ghosts and Ghouls

I broke out my fall decor box the other day and realized that I didn’t have nearly enough fall and Halloween decorations. I pulled out a board I had laying around and went to town on it. I love the way it turned out.

The board already had the holes in it, so I strung the ribbon through them and tied it in a knot.

This was my first attempt at making little rosettes, but I really like them.

I was a little lazy and used elmer’s glue at first.
