Halloween wood fall glittered Candy Corn Trio
There are so many fun aspects of Halloween and one of them is candy corn! I love how there are different flavors of candy corn but rather than eating them what I like even better is decorating with them. While out garage saling one Saturday we found these great wood candy corn blocks. They were unpainted but ready to go! $1.00 for both sets wouldn’t be a price we would pass up. Sorry about the blurry pictures sometimes I’m not the best at remembering to take photos as I craft. Snapping a photo at the last second seems to be my specialty. It’s pretty easy to take a set…

Polka Dot Mini Pumpkins make over DIY
During one of our many garage sale adventures we found these Mini Pumpkins. They were painted but pretty basic and just a little out dated. We were able to purchase all of the pumpkins that they had for only $1.00. These Mini Pumpkins were going to come home with us to get a little face lift! First off I sanded a few of them down to a rustic and faded orange. I made sure to get rid of the dark orange lines on the pumkins. Once they were sanded I then added glittered polka dots to the existing orange paint. The easiest way to glitter them is by putting dots of…

Advice from a Pumpkin Home Decor Wood Sign
Our friend Liz showed us this darling saying about advice from a pumpkin and she was just dying to make it! I have no idea where she saw it from for us to give credit but we were able to see a picture. Off to the Pallet yard Krystal and I went to find free wood (yet not necessarily pallet wood). We were lucky enough to find this insanely large piece of pine at the pallet yard for free! Take a look at this photo to see how large it is before cutting it! Imagine two women trying to get this home and then cutting it themselves on the table…
