Fall Decorations and Blake's Room

I love autumn time. The colors are just so pretty and it's a relief when the weather gets cooler after a hot summer. And fall means Halloween-one of my favorite holidays. I enjoy decorating for it each year and bringing a piece of the season into my home.

This is the top of our entertainment center

I love pumpkins

These are the "topiaries" that I made a few days ago. They are normally about $20 a piece, and I made them for between $7 and $8 each.

I've had Blake's room done for quite a while now, but just haven't gotten around to posting pictures of it. I made a lot of the decorations. I went for a boat, car, airplane, blue and brown theme and used Dr. Suess's words "Oh, the places you'll go". So fun. The goal was to paint it, but I don't know if or when that will happen. I want to put in molding at some point, but that won't come without me putting a lot more pressure on Rob.

I love all of your crafty cuteness. I might have to pay to come decorate our house, when we get there! I'll just have to keep checking your blog for ideas!
