Happy Frugal Fall Y'all

Decorating on a dime (or so) for Fall.

I {heart} banners, so I just had to make a Fall one. I got scrapbook paper from the $1 section at Target, cut them into triangles and hung the triangles with ribbon I already had! Tah-dah!
I made a little framed leaf decoration using an old frame I already had and taping 2 leaves from the Dollar Tree to a black piece of paper.
I made a little U with a $2 paint-it-yourself U and $2 dry moss from Hobby Lobby.

I also made a "pearly pumpkin" to match the wreath. I used left over string of pearls from the wreath to make round pearly polka dots on the pumpkin. I ran out of the pearls before I was finished, but oh well!

Ah, I love Fall! I love decorating with Fall colors.

more dining room decor.

A parent gave me this cute little turkey a few years ago. Perfect centerpiece for the dining room!

One of my favorites of Fall is the owl. [There are owls on the ribbon, you just can't really see them!]

Even though it hasn't really felt like it, Happy Fall Y'all!

Hand-Me-Down Happy

{please excuse the lack of color. i keep on wanting to paint but am avoiding it, hah}

everything in this room was free or we already had it. gosh, i love free things. this guest room has come together pretty well considering we never spent a pretty penny on it! heh.
for the other guest room, we used adam's sister's childhood bed along with the mirror that i had growing up.

i did spend a little on this guest room but not a lot. i kept expenses to a minimum. i bought the following few things for the room: the bedspread from burlington coat factory, a used $10 nightstand from a used furniture store that i paint white,

this shelf from walmart,
a pillow from tuesday morning,

and a pearly shade from garden ridge. the actual lamp is one that my parents weren't using anymore.

i was glad to put to use this picture that i had in my bedroom growing up.

A Trick-or-Treat Tag Along

Adam and I were able to tag along with our niece and nephew as they went trick-or-treating.
It was oh-so-fun with this oh-so-cute one!

What a beauty!

And, here's another cutie!

Can't wait to see them again!
