Fall Picks on You Are the Star

Welcome to You Are The Star Party

Happy Monday! I hope you had a delightful weekend. I drove up to PA on Sat. to see my Mom. Although the drive was long, it was beautiful seeing all of the changed trees as I drove north.

We had a quiet morning and then my sister came up and we took Mom to lunch. She gets tired easily, so we took her back home and then went to the outlet mall to shop or maybe just look around. 

Have a great week ahead.

WELCOME to the October 2023 "You're the Star" Blog Hop!
Before we continue onto the Linky party I wanted to share from my blog:

Halloween Crafts on Happiness Is Homemade

Welcome to Happiness is Homemade Link Party 

 Halloween is coming soon and I love fun Halloween decorations.  I'm having so much fun visiting all of your fabulous posts. We have some great features for you this week.  Enjoy!

Missed the party last week? Check it out here!

This Week's Features

Decorative pillows can be quite expensive, especially holiday pillows. Our own Bev of Eclectic Red Barn made these adorable Halloween pillows using Dollar Tree treat bags, so they were only $1.25! She chose bags made of fabric perfect for outdoor decor. Her tutorial is quick & easy, so be sure to check it out and pin it for later. (Be sure to do that with all of our fabulous features!

This Frankenstein card craft, created by Sam of Simple Everyday Mom, is an adorable idea to create with your kids or even to use in your classroom for our teachers out there! This card would be a great craft to create with your kids for a fun fall afternoon together. You could send them to grandparents, aunts, or friends, and they proudly display them year after year as Halloween decor. I still have cards that my kids made in school or Sunday school that I use as Christmas decorations. I wish a teacher had had either of my kiddos make this Franken-cutie!

Jennifer of Studio 27 came up with the fabulous idea of upcycling a Halloween baking pan that she found at a thrift store into a permanent faux cake decor piece. She used puffy paint so that her Halloween "cake" looks like it actually has icing on it. This is right up my alley since crafting is way more fun for me than baking. I don't think I could make a real cake look this great, lol!

For our last two features this week, I thought I'd bring us a few Halloween adult ideas. Donna of An Organized Season created a Halloween Haunted Mansion themed bedroom which is so cute! She has Halloween decor sprinkled throughout the room, like this apothecary dresser set-up. Check out her full post to see all of the bedroom decor. It's amazing inspiration for your own Halloween bedroom!

Need a little adult beverage for your Halloween party goers, one to liven up the night while handing out candy to trick or treaters, or even one to enjoy in your beautifully decorated master bedroom? Raquel over at Organized Island has the perfect recipe for you- this spooky looking black martini! It might look like something a witch would use to poison her victims, but the ingredients create a delicious concoction everyone's sure to enjoy!

Did you know we have a Pinterest Board where all features are saved to?  Save our pins to your own board for your future reference, easy peasy!

Happy Thursday dear friends. We have been having the most awesome fall weather. Now I feel more like fall decorating, although I already did. lol!

Awesome Fall Posts on Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop

Welcome to Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop!

Happy Wednesday and welcome to the party. We are having beautiful fall weather here in central Florida - mid 50s at night and low 70s during the day. I am loving it. I actually had my heated seat on in the car this morning. Now don't laugh!

All I need now is for the leaves to change color, but that's not going to happen. At least fall is in the air. 

If you have a chance, check out our Autumn Tray Tour

We have some great features for you this week, I hope you check them out. Please link up your wonderful posts. 

Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop. Share NOW. #wwbh #wwbloghop #wonderfulwednesdaybloghop #eclecticredbarn


On to the party!

My Autumn Tray

Autumn Leaves on a Tray Tour

Autumn is a wonderful time of the year. Leaves change color and fall and the temperatures cool down. Here in central Florida the leaves don't change color, but they do fall and the weather has cooled down.  It's the perfect time for some fall decorating. 

It's time for the Autumn Leaves on a Tray Tour sponsored by Katherine's Corner

If you stopped by from Debra @ Common Ground, she does an amazing job. So beautiful.

I was inspired for my tray by this Pelt Stretcher that I got recently. I had no idea what I was going to do with it but somehow it ended up on my kitchen table. What I love about creating trays or vignettes is that you don't need to buy anything, just look around your home. (That's what I had to do)
