This is my favorite month. There's snow...
But not so much of it that you have to pull out the shovel (usually). Beauty without work, love it. There's cooler weather -sweaters! - which also means that working outside isn't a sweaty, hot prospect.
This year, it also means that I only have two more weeks of wearing the walking boot for my broken leg. Woohoo, the end is in sight! And then, I can get outside. Ahhh. I've really missed that. I might actually get some more bulbs in the ground before winter. I'm hoping, anyway.
It also means colorful leaves. I found these leaves at Target on clearance for fifty cents each:
They are felt placemats. I stuck them in my front window to be a little festive, since they are the perfect color. The house looked a little bare after taking down the Halloween decorations (even though there are still a few ghosts hanging out in the trees outside - I can't climb to get them, and keep forgetting to get the girls out there).
How's things at your place? Getting Halloween put away? Hope you have a great week, whatever you're doing!
Love the leaves! And the snow and the resilient flowers that are still blooming!
ReplyDeleteI got my Halloween put away pretty quickly - didn't have a lot out anyway, just enough to let the neighborhood know they could come to me for candy on Halloween night. Put out a couple of candles for Thanksgiving, moved my blocks from "Boo!" to "Thanks", and that's pretty much it. but I do love your placemat leaves. I may have to go see if Target here has any. I got some from Bed Bath and Beyond last year, and sewed them on the big pillows on my couch for decoration, and they look really nice. But I didn't get enough for all the pillows. I may keep it 'fall' in my living room all year round. love you!
My house is almost always "fall", since I choose colors for everything that reflects my favorite season! Good luck finding more placemats!
