Weekend Ramblings



I feel somewhat productive this weekend after finishing my Martha Stewart glitter pumpkins. I have to say glitter has to be the messiest craft supply on earth! My table cloth is full of it and I think I will be wearing glitter in my hair for the next week. I'm happy with how they turned out and since I used "fake" pumpkins I won't have to make them again next year.


I also finished decorating my fireplace and put some pumpkin spice scented candles on the mantel, I am thinking I need to add a little fall decor to this area too. Ignore the paint samples on the wall; I am still trying to figure out what color to paint the room. I also picked up the cookbook holder to house my favorite magazines and cookbooks. I eventually want to scrapbook my favorite recipes and display the book on this holder.


Last but not least we added a new family member to keep our bird "fluffy" company. The new little green bird has been lovingly named "Chloe" by my daughter. I can't wait for the sound of little "chatter" in the mornings over coffee.


Have a great week!

Come said the wind to
the leaves one day,
Come o're the meadows
and we will play.
Put on your dresses
scarlet and gold,
For summer is gone
and the days grow cold.
