Halloween Merchandising

Isn't this Brag Monday?

If not, it should be, because

  I just couldn't wait to show you what 

my daughter put together.

She's a Visual Merchandiser for a LARGE book store

and came up with this

FuN

Halloween Display

How did she make that

Witch

Look So Good?

 

She Told Me How

She Started With A

 Styrofoam head from Sally Beauty Supply

Decoupaged it with Book Pages

Painted a Fanciful Face

Then gave her a Glamorous Outfit

She's So Creative

(even if I do say so myself)

Bragging Rights!

Do you enjoy seeing all the Holiday Displays?

I Sure Do!

 

Sunday Morning - Psalm 141:2

Prayer

A place of intimate petition

where we look beyond the natural

 and see the "Kingdom of Heaven"

at work in every need

A place of Intimacy

filled with

Joy  Love  Delight  Passion

and 

Worship

A place where we can learn to 

overcome evil with Good

A place where we recognize 

His Goodness

I hope your Autumn is as wonderful as ours

Not that we're doing anything Special 

We're just enjoying the Season

and the inspiration all around us.

I mean, how many "Fall" Magazines are there ... 

and who's counting?

 We Love them All!

All rhymes with Fall

I think I'm a poet.

Maybe, what's inspiring me 

will inspire You too!

PS:  By the way, the Gray Pumpkin ... I only painted it because it was almost gone.

It's probably best to paint an "artificial" pumpkin like Sweet Paul's.

(Let's just say ... the life expectancy goes way down once you paint a "real" one)

Sunday Morning - Psalm 107:1

(Photograph edited with iPiccy)

His 

LOVE 

is

Forever

Unchanging

Uncompromising

 Dependable

Faithful

and True

Accept it

Be still in it

Rest in it

Find joy in it

 then

 You'll be free to

Give It 
to anyone,
regardless of circumstance.

Have A Blessed Day!

Shopping on a Whim

HaPpY

Because, we're Retired

and can go to places like this on a Whim!

It was either this or the BIG Shopping Mall

and in our mind it was No Contest!

This was like a Breath of fresh air

 

 

Just what the Dr ordered

We Shopped, We Laughed, We Got Inspired

 and wished you had been with us

On our Day 

in

Seriously

Maybe next time You can come!

(Buzz was especially happy because I only spent $9.00)

 

Sunday Morning - Psalm 119:161

 

I

long for it

trust it

respect it

keep it

rejoice in it

LOVE

It

  

Autumn Garland - A Dollar Tree DIY

Autumn Garland

  

There are entire blogs dedicated to crafting from 

Dollar Stores 

but

This was my First Attempt

Supplies 

One Package of Autumn Table Decorations (From Dollar Tree), Needle, Thread, Buttons (from my stock) & Glue

Assembly

1. I used a heavy thread to sew a button to the top of each felt leaf - leaving the thread in tact
2. As I finished each leaf, I slid it down the thread, spacing the leaves approximately five inches apart.
3. Finally, to secure each leaf to the thread, I put a small drop of glue on the back of each button.

It only took about thirty minutes

and looks SO festive on our front porch

I'm seeing $ Stores in a Whole Different Way.

How about you?  

Have you been crafting from your $ Store?

Sunday Morning - Isaiah 26:9

(Photograph Edited with iPiccy)

Remembering 
Your 
goodness 
and 
wonderful works

satisfies my soul

Finally ... it Feels Like Autumn

Autumn is HERE and

I'm wearing COZY socks

DRINKING Pumpkin Spice Coffee

enjoying the STILLNESS

and PLANNING a trip to the

PUMPKIN PATCH

How about You?

Just Outside Our Front Door ...

“Piglet noticed that even though he had a Very Small Heart, 

it could hold a rather large amount of Gratitude.” 

 - A.A. Milne Winnie the Pooh
 

 

Gratitude 

that's how we feel about our front porch

 

it isn't anything fancy
 

  
but, it's cozy
 

and it has the flavor

 

 

of the life we've shared together

 

Before

A sweet reminder

of the goodness of God.
