I spent Friday night at my parents’ house and at the breakfast table in the morning I noticed my mom had out the penny rug I made her a few years ago. I love the simple look of the black felt and blanket stitch! I may just have to make these again someday…
All the handwork makes it the perfect project to take with you or work on while watching a movie with the fam!
Now I wish I had made myself one, too… ;o)
I love fall! I know I’ve mentioned it before but I love decorating for the fall, too! November is my favorite fall month because it is Thanksgiving!!!
We should be thankful year round but we put a special emphasis on it in November! Even some of my decorations get in on it…
Love this verse!
Found this handsome bird a few years ago at the Goodwill for $8 and I am still thankful for it! : o)
This tablecloth I made last year incorporates all kinds of my favorite things: brown, fall, pumpkins and farms!
But my Thanksgiving tree is my favorite!
I decorate my tiny tree with leaves and Bible verses on being thankful!
Psalm 100:4 “Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name.”
I love fall! I love the cooler days, warm cozy drinks, fires in the stove, colorful crisp leaves, caramels, baking and decorations! This year I was inspired by Pinterest to make some new additions to my boxes of autumn décor. Here are some of my favorites…
I cut up a piece of vintage scrapbook paper, glittered it and made a bunting for the kitchen slider.
more fun with scrapbook papers and cards my sister made
Made this fun square bunting with black tie accents to hang over my stove for the fall season!
I didn’t make this lamp or the pumpkin but it is one of my favorites!
I love birds, owls and trees! So these Dollar Store silhouettes made perfect little accents in the living room!
A package of Dollar Tree leaves run through the sewing machine made the ideal bunting for the china hutch!
These luminaries look much prettier outside shining in the dark but don’t hold up too well in the soggy PNW. So they’ll just have to light up the entryway instead…
This felt bunting is so fun hanging on the divider in the entry! Apparently the kitten thought so too… I really miss having it there. : o(
I love the vintage owl & cat bunting made from cupcake toppers I printed on-line from HERE
But this scrappy wreath made from the extra pieces from my bunting is so sweet and so easy!
Then I took all the extra bits and pieces from my other fabric projects and modge-podged them onto old glass jars to make this fun little candle lamps for the woodstove. With the cold weather coming on soon, I think they are going to need to find a new home…
