A Quick Halloween Vignette

Need a Quick Halloween Vignette?

Halloween is rapidly approaching and I am still decorating. I wanted a quick and easy vignette for my kitchen table. So I checked my stash, painted a little, added a little and this is what I came up with.

Over The Moon Linky Party

Welcome to Over The Moon Linky Party

Happy Sunday!  I am still up north. Our trip took a little longer than we had hope - 15 1'2 hours. the dogs did fine but we were very tired. We are staying with my in-laws and enjoying the cooler weather. Today was a high of 75, now that is fall weather for me. 

I even bought some pumpkins to take home. As we were driving here, we saw fields of pumpkins that they had picked and lined up ready to be picked up. We saw lots of trucks loaded with boxes of pumpkins. I took this one picture but we were moving so fast that you can't see the pumpkins too well.

I hope you enjoy checking out my features and all of the amazing posts. Have a great week ahead.

Thursday Favorite Things Linky Party

Welcome to Thursday Favorite Things!


Happy Thursday everyone! I hope your week has been great.  We are driving to Pittsburgh, PA today. I used to drive this all the time but lately we have not driven and I am not sure how much I like driving with three dogs. So far they are being very good but 13 1/2 hours is long and that doesn't include stops. 
I want to see my Mom who is 94 and still going strong and my little sister. They are supposed to have cool weather so I am looking forward to that.

Fall Candle Holder from a Lamp Base

Fall Candle Holder  from a Lamp Base

A few months back, I pulled a wicker lamp out of the neighbors junk pile. The cord had been cut off but the rest of the parts where there. I keep lamp parts so I took it apart. The lamp shade was "toast" and I really didn't want it. 

The base of the lamp was wicker and in good shape, but I didn't like the color (sort of dirty blond).  Sorry, I don't have a picture of the original lamp base. I didn't think I would be using the base. I put it aside for awhile.

Then one day I found the wicker base and had an idea.  I found some brown spray paint. I got so excited that I forgot to take a before picture. While the paint was drying, I headed to A. C. Moore for a couple of items.
