Thick Fall wreath using a combination of three wreaths. The first full wreath was given to me from my sweet sister. The second wreath was from a thrift store costing $1.50. The third wreath was from a $3 wreath that I tore apart to use for my summer wreath. 

Thanks Giving! Last year I gave in and bought PB turkeys. The set of them were on sale costing. $24 I plan on using them for years to come.

Fall Decor with fresh grown garden pumpkins. I used the mini pumpkins and medium carving size.
Thanks Giving Mantel. $1 thrift store pumpkins on candle sticks. Garland 50% off at Hobby Lobby. $1.50 thrift store wreath with a fresh bow. Window screen made from old wood, left over door handle, old screen door, all glued together with hot glue. Then I painted a light coat of white over wood and metal. For my birthday I bought the tim
ed candles from Costco. They are a set of six. From our garden I used a few fresh mini pumpkins in with the garland.



Give Thanks is made from a brown paper bag, Old book pages, and black marker.

PB inspired Magnolia Wreath. $3 dollar thrift store wreath, dried magnolia leaves (thanks to my sister and a wind storm), and a hot glue gun.


My PB inspired pillows. I love PB kids. I love the details and textures they have. Here is my version of this years pillows I made from a $3 table cloth and scraps.
My second pillow is a Santa pillow that I used scraps from the advent calendar curtain, felt, and other soft scraps I pieced to make Santa's beard.


Tree cone made from firewood tree bark, fruit snack box, paper bags, and burlap. I taped the fruit snack box into a cone shape. Then I cut the bottom even so it would stand up properly. I used plastic bags as a filling. Next, I hot glued burlap. From my bark pieces I glued from the bottom up to make a cone tree.
