no matter where we are...

I had to laugh today when I got on the blog and saw that my sister and I had posted the same project. It just makes me happy to have someone that just "gets" me (even on the simple things like sequin trees). Love you B!!!

Sequined Tree

My holiday project to do list is getting longer and longer, but I couldn't pass up adding this vintage inspired sequined tree. This would make a lovely addition to any holiday home decor. I love the look of it. Living with Lindsay was featured on Centsational Girl and that is where I found this fun project. Click here for the tutorial.

This is very pretty and I just love anything sparkly...found on Centsational Girl from Living with Lindsey.

$1 fall banner

I was so excited the other day when I found all of these knitted squares at the thrift store for $1 dollar. The colors where perfect for fall and when I saw them I immediately knew how I could put them to use. As you can see, I strung them on clothesline and made myself a totally cute fall banner. So easy, so inexpensive and so fun!

These are so much fun and the photography is just yummy...I love it!! Check out a GREAT tutorial for these cute little pumpkins at Thompson Family-Life.

caramel sauce with labels

I was so excited when I came across this recipe/project...you just have to read the directions for yourself, but I had no idea that you could make caramel sauce like this...it is so cool! Not to mention Michelle from This Crazy Life has made up some super cool labels to complete the process for you. I honestly think this would be so fun for friends and family, all wrapped up in a little basket with some apples and other fun treats to dip in caramel. Can't wait to try it out. Check it out HERE.

Pottery Barn Inspired Wreath

On Made With Love & Glue she has a tutorial on how to make a super cute Pottery Barn inspired holiday wreath. She makes her for pennies compared to the Pottery Barn price tag of $79.00. Gotta love a great deal....and when it looks like this you can love it that much more!! =)
