Believe it or not, my house is only half decorated for Christmas!
WHAT?? The girl who begins her countdown in June? The girl who starts listening to Christmas music in October? The girl who watches Christmas movies every night in December?

Yes, all that is still happening.

I had to postpone my decorating this year.
But don't you worry, it'll get done.
And when it does. I'll show it to you! Yippee!

On the bright side, the tree is up! It shines brightly in our front window.
And I remembered something cute and crafty I did last year that I almost forgot about!!

Drum roll please......


These are my scrapbookie ornaments (for lack of a better name).
I rolled up 1/2 strips of paper, stuffed them into clear glass ornaments and voila!!

They'd probably be even cuter if I tied fabric strips on the top, huh? Maybe I'll do that. When I finish decorating...

Ooooooo. Ahhhhhh!

Hi.

Yes, I realize it's been a while. {Cough}.
I'm hoping, if anyone still reads this, you will forgive my slacker ways.

Especially since I have been up to some awesome Halloween decorating!

Something about this chilly fall weather got to me. I have been holed up in my house going crazy with the crafts and the sewing!!! Yahoo! I LOVE it!

Oooh! Isn't it festive? I have been inviting all the neighbors over to look because I just can't hold in the excitement. Woot woot for Halloween and being such a fun holiday!


Believe it or not I painted the creepy little house on wrapping paper that I wrapped around a picture of the Salt Lake Temple. Don't worry, it's only temporary.
And that witch??? My mom made that years ago. It has always been my favorite Halloween decoration. She gave it to me because she loves me. I would like to get a cauldron for the witch so she can brew up something...



I love my spooky sign. I just printed those letters on the computer and cut them out. Easy peasy.


Given my past bunting experience, this actually didn't take too long! And I'm loving the color combo.


I got these dead little guys at the dollar store! I have a fourth skeleton that I think I will put on a wreath.


Embroidery hoops with fabric tucked inside. And when Thanksgiving and Christmas come, it will be so easy to swap these out!

I promise to be better at showing you my projects!!! I've been busy working on a bunch because it's crafty season for me!

The Couch Needed a Little Sprucing

The couch was looking and feeling a little blah. I had some throw pillows on there, but the colors
just didn't match and they were so very boring. So I whipped up these
little pillowcases for them!

So much better...
