I am so glad this is the topic this month because I had not decorated our back porch for fall yet and this pushed me to get it done. I started with… Read More

0000As a blogger, I have to start certain projects and decorating EARLY! It is the beginning of September and I am already planning Christmas projects and decor. It is a little crazy how early things roll around, but I wouldn’t change it for anything. I love what I do and pushing my creativity is always a good thing. For fall, I can’t always find real pumpkins at the end of summer when I am posting about the season so I have to rely on faux pumpkins. Good faux pumpkins are hard to find. A lot of times when I find… Read More

Repurposed DIY Fall Sign For The Entry

8 Comments

0000Signs are so much fun. I have DIYed many and am always inspired by signs I see in stores and magazines. This Repurposed DIY Fall Sign came from a dumpster find my mom found at our local grocery store. Usually, when Matt and I have scrap wood left over from bigger projects, we turn them into some kind of sign or wall art. It is a great way to use the scraps and repurpose them into something beautiful instead of burning them or throwing them out.  When my mom saw these arrows heading for the dumpster at our grocery store, she… Read More
