Decorating for Fall

Sorry my post is coming so late, but I was out showing houses to a buyer in Queen Creek. And in the process of showing houses, I found another buyer that was walking by one of the houses I was showing. Whoohoo!! Now onto the post for today:

How are you decorating your house for Thanksgiving? I know a lot of people who only decorate for Halloween and just wait until Christmas, but I love to use any excuse to add some glitter to my house. Here's some ideas for stuff you can do to make your house a little more festive for this harvest holiday.


1) I found these adorable felted acorns on Etsy. I want some in every color.



2) I've seen these velvet pumpkins all over the place and I need some for my coffee table. My texture obsessed son will love to play with them all day long. You can buy some at Domestic Bliss, make your own kits for Posh Squash from Oive Juice & Co., or Order some from my lovely friend Jessie's new shop Little Pickle Creations.


3) Of course The Queen of Domesticity, Martha has a ton of great Harvest Decorating ideas on her site. I can already see lots of gold spray paint & glitter in my future.


4) I really want to make some throw pillows & some placemats for Thanksgiving. I'm thinking about using this digital kit and this digital kit from Two Peas In A Bucket, and making iron ons to go on simple muslin pillows. You can follow this tutorial to make the pillows.
