Simply Primitives Time!

A big Thank You to all who have entered my giveaway! I'm responding to all comments but I'm also taking time to visit your blog and get to know you so it may take me a couple of days to acknowledge your entry. I've enjoyed visiting everyone's blogs and love, love, love the quotes! It seems like autumn gets everyone's creative juices flowing! Still time to enter--see the details on my sidebar!

Here's a peak at my offerings on this month's Simply Primitives site:

Pumpkin Stack Pillow-Sold

Mousie in JOL

Crafty Cat Witches

There's so many wonderful patterns available for fall and Halloween that it's hard to choose what to do next. Thanks to Jan Goos, Brenda Gervais and Pineberry Lane for these designs.

Here's the goodies I found at the Old Summit Antique show last weekend.

Bittersweet from Jenny to add to my dried gourds. I hope the cats don't discover this! Jenny's extension agent said the bittersweet grown here isn't toxic to pets but I don't want to test that statement.

 I'm so happy I grabbed this at the first vendor's booth! I have several document boxes but none with floral stenciling.

I bought this for the wonderful frame, but the farm scene from an old plat book is pretty charming. If you click on the photo you can see the details in the print, including a mom pushing her baby buggy across the field!

Fall Crafting

I hope you had a great Labor Day weekend. I spent a good chunk of time in my craft room finishing a few things and beginning additional projects, which made me very happy.

The cooler weather also inspired me to begin pulling out my fall decor. Nothing too fancy, but I like to keep something seasonal in the old knife box.

I like the way the old brown crocks look against the dark red of the dining room walls and a little orange makes a nice contrast.

The little pumpkin witch is from one of the first swaps I ever did. She is so unique and taking her out of the box always brings back happy memories and warm feelings.

So many of the little things I put out for fall remind me of the person who made them and those memories are the best part of fall decorating for me.
