Witchy ways!

As you can see I have added to the whole Witch appeal out here. I found these hats and thought how cute to put them on the planters.

 As you can see I added witches hats to the planters......

Not too much going on here....HA!

Of course the tree was inspired by Pottery barn. I happened to find a really cute tree Limb broken in our yard.

Sure is a far witches cry from the Summer porch!

Oh and did you notice my blue cross is now Orange? Of course all my color choices are always by Krylon. The orange is Pumpkin.

Three blind mice

First I have to tell you....in the past week, I have been featured over at HOUZZ twice. It was very exciting to see our bedroom and French poster as the feature. Then today, I noticed a snippet of our front porch featured. I was excited!~ When looking over the other features I saw these cute little mice silhouttes going up stairs.  Well, they talked about where to find them...which is MICHAEL's crafts. Martha Stewart has a very cool line of these and I may go back next week to get more fun stuff.  So off I went....and I bought me some Mice and spiders! I bought one pack each at $4.99. I will show you what I did with those....

I also was in a crafting kind of mood. I know my track record has not been so good. However, I did OK today, IMO and wanted to share.  I had some left over orange burlap. I see everyone wrapping vases, and planters and thought I would give it go. Of course I added just a hint of embellishing to mine. First up...my MICE

The boys got a real kick out of these when they came home from school. You do know I do this all for them right????

These topiaries are Real

Had a few mice left over, and thought I would jazz up this corner

I even modge podged this bottle that I use for dish soap

These paper cut outs I had since last year, purchased at the Dollar tree. No haste no waste, I used them this year on something different. My embellishments and soap bottle. I just cut out the eyes, mouth, bats, etc..... I may do more with the scraps.

I also want to mention there will be NO garage salen party this weekend.  We are going on a family road trip. I will have my laptop, and may catch up here and there, however, I really like to be dedicated to the partay, and this weekend I just won't have the time.  So this gives you another week to go thrifting and score some more!!~

Family room

Another rainy dreary day here in the Carolinas...much needed though so I am really not complaining too much.
I have finished most of my indoor Halloween/Fall decorating and thought I would share some changes. Nothing remarkable, just fun. The boys love it, and get a kick out of some of the things I do around here.

I have to warn you now, I took lots of pics. I have been playing around with my camera settings, so the pictures are set to a more warm setting via candle light.

I will start with the Fireplace Mantel....nothing major, I added the moss, as I seen that done in the pottery barn catalog and thought it is such an easy touch.

Looks a little Gothic and spooky right? Well to me it does!
Now onto the the coffee table....

Little mice running around here.

Spiders and skeleton bones too!

Ok these three rats are a hoot, I bought them from Pottery Barn. I had a 25.00 gift certificate, of course I had to spend 50.00 to use it, however that was easy to do....

Just playing with my camera trying to get some cool shots.

I placed this cloth on Lucy's dog bed, she is staying clear of it...although she rarely sits or lays on it anyhow, she is a lap dog every chance she gets.
