Fall!

I have been such a huge slacker! I just looked back, and haven't posted since JULY. Shame on me. I've been busy with a new baby girl, and buying a new home! Anyways, I got myself in the game this past weekend. I wanted something for my mantel, and a wreath, and a Halloween decoration. I wanted to keep it simple so I could actually get it done.

Well I can just say I love pinterest. You've all probably seen what I'm going to post, but I had to do it! So easy, and cute.

First my banner! My MIL had lots and lots of burlap left over from my sister in laws wedding. So I just cut out triangles. Then I used a cricut to cut the word FALL. Then I traced it backwards on the material I bought, cut it and used spray adhesive. Then used twine to put it all together. Simple and cute!

This is my wreath: Just used a dollar store wreath, burlap, and some cream fabric. Then I made some rosettes, and folded pieces, and glued on some pearls. Love the way it turned out. Also used twine to wrap the one side.

I saw one kind of like this on Pinterest. This is my version. I think it's cute! Maybe should have done white cricut letters, but I still love it. Dollar store googly eyes, and dollar frame from Michaels, spray painted black!
