Fall Decor & some FREE printables

So today it is almost 80 degrees and by Friday we will barely hit 68 here in NY...crazy weather for sure!  Sure to be int he low 40's at night!  I LOVE IT!  I had to get some Fall decor up at the house (the mantel mostly) so IF we have a fire in the fireplace it will feel warm and cozy...(something about having a fire in the fireplace with seashells on the mantel just does not seem right)

I could not ask my hubby to go into the attic (90 degrees for sure up there) and hunt for my Fall boxes of decor, SO I took a quick trip to the Dollar Tree and found a few items to help me out...

First thing I did was change out my candles from white and lighter colors, to the darker browns and oranges...then changed out my picture that sits as the focal point on the mantel...from there it was easy work around (and inexpensive too)



Easy Fall look - 2 bags of Dollar Tree Candy Corn in a glass jar
with a few other things thrown in...


Little pumpkin was already filled up (yes the Dollar Tree) and 
bought a Pumpkin Spice Dollar Tree candle too to replace
my white one!

The Fall Printable in the frame can be found HERE FOR FREE!


Little glittery pumpkin


Not a HUGE lover of artificial flowers, but once in a while
you need that POP of color you just cant find at your 
local store...


Just have to dress up my Ball Jars for Fall...
using a battery operated candle in there


Added a few fall artificial flowers into my Summer wreath
 (until my scarecrow, Floyd comes out of his box)


The cutest ceramic painted pumpkin...love this!

There you have it...$ 10 for candles, artificial flowers,
candy corn and a few pumpkins...


More FREE Fall Printables that you will love!


I will be getting out my boxes and boxes of Fall, Autumn and Halloween decor in the next few weeks!

Be sure to stop by tomorrow for a Fall Apple Book giveaway!

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
