Halloween Decorating!

I love decorating for fall and halloween, but for some reason I didn't go all out this year. I have little bits here and there and I wanted to take some pictures and share! (HA that rhymed!) I finally bought those silhouettes too, I want to go back and get the crows and the other ones that they have)

Enjoy! and tell me what you think! :) :)



My silhouettes! I love them so much, I cant wait to go back and get the crows to put on top of my mirrors and pictures.



Wicked sign that I bought at Ross for $3! I thought it was cute.



cute little halloween rug going into the bathroom.


I bought this a year or two ago we actually keep it up all year-round. Hubby loves it.


EEK! More rats!


The buffet decorated for fall/halloween.


Entrance table. House is from Ross everything else is from Goodwill.


Front Door decorated.


Close up of the birdcage


Close up of the top of my bookshelf.


Cat my mom got me at a craft store. This sucker was almost $40, I never would've paid that much for it but my mom got it for me because we have a black kitty! :)


little table full view.. I need somewhere else to put that ladder since the cat is in its normal place.


full book case view.


Light up house my mom gave me when I moved out. (and the shadow box on the left that I made. Hubby made me that heart out of metal he welded together)


Guest bathroom.. I got this set from the LTD catalog last year. I love it. (please ignore the cat litter box =X

Goodwill Finds Throughout the Summer.

So I've been lacking motivation to take pictures of things as I've been getting them.. so I decided to do it today! Prepare for a long post!

I got this cheese dome from goodwill awhile back, and painted it black and found these silver sparkly xmas balls to put in there for lack of anything else better right now.


Some bottles I got from goodwill now sit on my windowsill, i love the way they look when light is going through them.


next three are pictures of a corner cabinet my mom gave me, and everything on it aside from the "HOME" piece was from her also.. I got the HOME thing from goodwill.






A small silver tray I got from GW, I believe this was only .79 cents.. I couldn't wait to put this out but am not sure I like what I have on it... The cloche is from GW also, less than a dollar and more of the corks, I got like 6 bags of them.


The dish is from GW and was only .99 cents, the potpourri I had and I threw in some crystaled apples I had under the counter until I can find something better to put in there.


Bistro sign from GW, cloche, red glitter xmas balls and utensil jar all from Goodwill, I was super excited about that utensil jar ive been looking all over for one!


Bread box came from my mom since she never used it anymore and it fits PERFECTLY in this little space.. on top is a jar i got from GW awhile back, plate, stand and cat are all from GW too.


Heart wreath thing, its small but really cute.. I just dont know where to put it yet.



two Vases, idk what ill put in them yet but they were only .50 cents each.. hurricane glass thing, I cant wait to use this for fall and winter I have plans for this.. they always have like 30 of them everytime I go to GW but ive only ever bought two.. theyre so big I have no idea what id do with more than that!... the basket, seashells and there are the rest of the corks! all from GW waiting to find a home in my house somewhere...


Tray from GW for only .50 cents.. I have no idea what to do with it yet but I KNOW I want to paint it... I dont know if I want to make it into a chalkboard, or if i want to paint it white or black and use it as a decoration around with stuff on it.


Finally i've been finding little jars.. ive never been able to find any, big or small... I found this one for only .49 cents and added some of the seashells I had from before in it... I'll probably add something else as I find something mini to put in there!


Birdhouse was a purchase a long time ago, like back in Jan. I finally got to put it out though, and used some fake grass in there and a patroitic start I had... I need something else to do with this though, it just seems lacking to me but itll do for now!


jar with shells from GW


next three pictures are of baskets I got from GW. I am really happy with the first one.. It was a $5 basket for only .99 cents! It says something autumn on it and im not sure I like the colors, so ill probably, most likely, paint it.. I have no idea what color yet or what I want to do with it...
the second one is a super cute little brown tin/thing... It has such gorgeous amazing details on it I couldnt get over it, and it has the cutest little handles on the side! I dont know what to put in this one yet or where to put it but I knew I had to have it.. I found a green on like this one later, but didnt pick it up, I also found a really big long one like this one but didnt get that one either. I should have though.
and the third one is a little wooden fence/box/thing. haha I dont know where to put it or what to put in it yet, but I will def. paint it.. probably white and distress it a little...







Two halloween trees.. I thought they were so cute and less than a buck for the both of them.


Entrance View... the mirror we redid and I just LOVE it, its absolutely gorgeous

Goodwill finds Feb.

I got quite a few things over my last few trips to Good will, including a bunch of glass jars, vases, plates, etc etc. I didn't take pictures of them because they're not that exciting, and my camera was dying..

Bunny spoon rest or soap container, there are two so i will put one in the bathroom & one in the kitchen.

Cute spring wreath, only $3.

Little wagon, looks more fall-ish to me but i can use it for easter, or spray paint it pastel for spring then back to orange for fall.

I saw the boy bunny and thought he was ugly at first, then on my second walk through i stuck him in my basket, at the check out line I saw the girl to go with him and had to have them, they were only .29 a piece too I believe, kinda flimsy the ears are breaking off but oh well.

.99 cents for a bunch of shells and the jar

I thought this was WAY too cute to pass up.

This looks 100 times better in person, it was $3 so I wasnt sure if i wanted it at first, but its just so different and very heavy so I ended up getting it.

I fell in love with this at first sight.. I dont know what to put in it, it has separated compartments in it maybe for wine? either way I looked at the price tag and it was $1.99! I thought for sure it would be at least $5-7, I just had had had to have it. maybe ill take out the separator and use it for storage for something or other
