Decorating for fall

I know some of you out there are still experiencing highs in the 90s, but last week over here was in the 50s! We recently moved from Las Vegas to St. Louis, so this is just madness. Not that it matters. Because I think I still would have decorated even if it was in the 90s. And to be fair, it was still pretty warm when I started decorating. Don't hate! September = Fall. Right? Right. Plus this is the first year I'm not in school, so I actually had this fancy lil' thing called "free time".

Anyways. I got a bug in me, so I headed on over to Michael's to get a whole bunch of crap that I had no real plan for. I brought it home hoping I could figure it all out. Well I did. And I'm very happy with the results. Take a look!

For our dining room table:

You can't really tell in the picture, but there are lil plastic pumpkins on the flowers. It's so cute! So I picked out my fake flowers and such and then I also grabbed some of that straw crap that gets absolutely everywhere and is the biggest pain in your ass but it's so damn cute that you just deal with it. Yeah, that stuff. I stuffed straw into my vase and voila!

Here's a close up of the other stuff. On the left we have little glasses (they're actually wine glasses), again stuffed with straw and then some of those pine cones that smell like heaven. I mean cinnamon. (PS these pine cones came with little pumpkins too!) And then on the right I got some cardboard pumpkins and skulls and painted them. The pumpkin has a glittery orange stem that's kind of hard to see.

 These are some decorations I made for a little table we have. I have 3 flasks: 1 is filled with more of the pine cone stuff, the other 2 are filled with some more straw and some other flowers I picked out. In the cage is yet again more straw and some baby pumpkins.

Last thing! These might be my favorite. Again these were cardboard pumpkin and skull that I just painted black. On the pumpkin I used modge podge to apply silver glitter. On the skull I glued on rhinestones randomly to make a swirl.


And that's it. That's all I got for now.
