New Stitching

I finished a new cross stitch for the kitchen yesterday. It is supposed to be square, but I couldn't find a frame that would work and fit above the kitchen cabinets (where I put it), so I adjusted the pattern a little to fit this frame.

Curtain

I got a star button valance for the Winter in the downstairs bathroom. I think it goes nicely with the new walls and border.

Bath Redo

My Aunt redid her sitting room and I became obsessed with finding a place in my house for the wallpaper she used. My downstairs bathroom was a really nice blue that I loved (for the last 14 years!), but I decided it was time for a new look. I painted the tops of the walls a yellowy off white and my Mom and I did the paper and border on the bottom. It took forever, but it is worth it. It makes the upstairs bathroom look plain and boring now.

More New Things

I found this chair like the one my Mom has yesterday. She has a space at the end of her hallway to put it, but it's so skinny, I put mine in the middle of the hallway and it's not in the way so far. I stuck a ghost on it for now. (The woodwork is not red like it looks in the picture, by the way)

I liked this star so much I had to get it. I put it in the hallway across from the new chair for now. I had to do a little rearranging, but it all worked out.

New Lighting

I got this hanging light for the computer room. I took out the two large bookcases and I added a rug on the floor. It gave me another wall to hang stuff on :-)

I finally replaced the last builder's grade globe light with this fun wire one.

New Fall Crafts

I created some new crafts for the season. I saw something similar to this at the store and I found the crow for sale and the bag and I had everything else to make it at home.

I made this latch hook rug I got on clearance at the beginning of the year.

We made fall bushel baskets this year. I think it came out cute.

New Fall Decor

I took out my Fall decorations the other day and I've done a pretty good job of getting it down to a good amount. I did decide to get a few new things to replace some older decorations. I got this hanging scarecrow from someone on ebay.

I just got this scarecrow gourd. I think he's cute and he lights up.

This fits nicely in the corner of the mud room since the coat rack broke in half.

I got this handmade scarecrow from someone on ebay. He was a little plain so I jazzed him up with a band on his hat with berries tucked in, matching patches on his pants, scarves on the crows and little bells with string on his shoes.
