Finally it's starting to feel like FALL here on the gulf coast...our forecast for the week has our temps in the 80's! I know that to some of you that still doesn't come near your FALL temps, but for us it's HUGE...we are finally getting out of the 90's...so with these cooler temps what's a gal to do? Get a move on and start some FALL NESTING! It's going to be a lot of fun this year because I will be shopping my house instead of going out and buying MORE stuff...on top of that...I'm winning some brownie points with Mr.CC (he is all about me cutting back on home decor...MEN)! Now you know what I have been up to...so now it's your turn to share with all of us what you have been doing!
Do you remember these FREE flowers that I found at the dumpster last month while I was moving my daughter into her new college condo?
I used a $8 vase that I found last year in a home decor consignment shop and added some bamboo from one of my favorite stores...DOLLAR TREE!
Another DOLLAR TREE goodie!

Looks great Linda!
ReplyDeleteI went to the Michigan v. Bowling Green football game this weekend in Ann Arbor. As we were waiting for the shuttle to take us to the Big House, two Auburn fans walked up and got in line. I asked them if they made a wrong turn. They were actually from Georgia and traveled all that way to watch the game. I thought of you because I knew you were an Auburn fan.
Have a great week! La
Linda,

Your flowers look great and don't you love white pumpkins? I'll be back after I take a few pictures.
ReplyDeleteNo fall temps here in Florida yet, but your flowers could put me in the mood. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteSo smart of you Linda, to shop your house instead of spending money like I did! The flowers look great.
ReplyDeleteLove your freebie flowers! they look great
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, Your flowers and vase are lovely. I started decorating for Fall today since the temp has dropped into the 80's. A lot better than Friday at 98 degrees! Take care.

ReplyDeleteLinda, Thanks for hosting and I love your fall arrangement.

What a way to be thrifty!!! They look great! I totally understand about the cutting back. We had to do that but I did end up spending about $30 on some additional fall items! I tried!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting again!
Cutting back ~ I'm not sure that phrase is in my vocabulary. I can be pretty thrifty, but I'm all about the decorating. Your floral arrangement is lovely and you have inspired me to start decorating for fall. Thanks for the fun party!!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Susan and Bentley
