Feeling Fall

Okay, so first off, I have to show you what I got! I went to the trusty 'ole Wal-Mart last night to get a cake for Ava's family birthday party tomorrow (that we are hosting) and started browsing through the fall section (more to come on that in a moment!) and the curtain section.

Look what I found?!

I had something like this in mind to make the apartment seem a little more cozy and these were on clearance! I cleaned them out of the last two packages they had!

I love the red and it goes with our living room. Also, I'm sure you noticed I didn't get a long enough rod...I know, bummer. We'll have to go back and get a little bit longer one. I could take down the blinds, but since we're renting, we'd have to put them back up and, oh what a pain that would be!
But they totally fit in with my fall decor theme that I'm trying to get going?! Look what I found to add to my collection while I was there...

This cute fall colored bow that I put on the knob to our entertainment center (yes, those are still Christmas present from last year hidden in there).

This little scarecrow man is hiding out in the plant in the corner of the room!

And I got this candle holder (hello, reusable!) and some $1.00 pumpkins and stuck them on there, placed it on our mantle and voila! Pretty good so far, huh?! I thought so! Now I just have to go dig out my fall door wreath... I'm going to put together a little happy birthday/hannah montana suprise decoartions for Ava tomorrow, I'm sure she will love it!

Fall is in the air

"Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns." ~George Eliot

Fall is my absolute FAVORITE season of all time! I love that it's not too hot but it's not too cold either and if it is a little cold, well then I welcome it! I love that crisp feeling in the air and wearing jeans and sweaters! I love having all of our windows open and snuggling up on the couch with a blanket!

Oh I could just go on and on about all of the things that I love about fall!

Ryan and I went to Hobby Lobby the other day in search of all things fall (well mostly I dragged Ryan to Hobby Lobby in search of all things fall!). I wanted to get some new decorations, but when I was there, I was just at a loss as to what I could create. It bums me out when that happens. I want to make some things, but I just can't seem to think of anything. And if I do see something cute I always come up with an excuse of I have no place to put it! Argh! What to do?

What are some of your favorite fall decorations? (Zizi Nikki...what should I do?! Any suggestions for our place?)

Please ignore that ugly wire down there, it's for the cable! I got that cute little white pumpkin on the top shelf of the lamp, I think I love white pumpkins now! Of course, I had to break out my Yankee Candle in Macintosh, my favorite fall candle scent! I also got the little vase/bowl on the bottom at HL and filled it with what was supposed to vanilla scented decorative potpourri (yeah, it didn't smell like much!).

This is a close up of the bowl...didn't come out all too clear (hello new camera?!)

Here is that white little pumpkin that I think is so darn cute! I got it, along with the orange little one below at Walgreens for $0.99!

These are some of my other finds. I got that cute little orange pumpkin from Walgreens (ninetynine cents...woo hoo! ha!) and then that wirey pumpkin thing on the right from Hobby Lobby, I like how rustic it looks. I got some yummy smelling cinnamon candles to go in it. Pretty cute!

And of course you HAVE to have candy corn!!! Those things hurt my teeth so bad, but I love them! Clearly its Bears Season, so we had to break out the Chicago Bears Glass Dish! GO BEARS!!! We will be going to the home opener two Sundays from this coming Sunday, we just can't wait! Are any of you all football fans? I wasn't until I entered into the McIntyre clan...those boys are Bears fanatics! It's kind of fun, something to look forward to doing every Sunday in the fall!
