Little Shabby Heart and House

I've been in the sewing mood lately... So I sewed this sweet little stuffed heart and house. 

I love the way they turned out... I'm addicted now and I want to make more... I love tea dying laces and doilies and chopping them up!! lol

 They will be in my etsy shop!! Have a blessed day!

Starting to decorate for Fall

I'm finally starting to decorate for Fall around here.... I've been so busy with other things and I keep thinking I have plenty of time but time is flying and it's already Oct so I have to get on the ball and get things decorated before it's time to decorate for Christmas....

 I thought I would start with the mantle shelf above the sofa and then work on decorating my china hutch later today... I'll share pics as soon as I get it done... I got the little leaf vase at the thrift store last month for 68 cents and I put some twigs from outside in it and I love it!!

I made myself the little cream sweater pumpkin and the leaf garland is from Target dollar spot. I love those Target dollar bins for seasonal decorations.

Found these cute vintage squirrel salt and pepper shakers at an estate sale this summer and the owl ones are from Walmart. I wanted to keep it simple.... I might add some vintage doilies though.... I think it needs a little something.... Now off to get started on decorating my china hutch... I painted it white last Fall and I love it! Very Farmhouse style....

Have a great day,
Pattie

Yard Sales

   Lots of yard sales around my neighborhood yesterday and today! 

I found lots of good vintage junk!!  This rusty vintage postage scale was just one of the goodies I found!! I love it but I'm not sure if I will keep it or not..... Our house is very small so there is not a lot of places to display things! And I can't seem to find the right spot for it! :/ .  I'll have to move it around a bit and see....

 I think it might look better in the kitchen... I just wish my counter tops were a solid color or wooden, then my vintage goodies would look better on them... I hate my counter tops but it's not in the budget to change them right now so I will just have to deal with them.... :( 

I'll share more of my yard sale goodies soon!
