I had a realization the other day. It was actually while I was scanning
Pinterest realizing that crafting for the Halloween/Fall season is the hottest thing going! Don't get me wrong, I drool over projects that these gals (and perhaps some guys) come up with, but really? When do these people find the time?! I only wish I had the time to paint pumpkins in different colours, glitters and decals, but I don't. So no, my realization was not that I have little time to craft (I already knew that!), it was that I
can, and perhaps
should, decorate my house for fall. Seems simple, right? I have watched my mom(s) transition from bright summer flowers to autumn appropriate ones and smelt the change in the potpourri but it hadn't occurred to me that I am now in charge of this transition. Challenge accepted!

With my teeny tiny budget for fall decor, I have added hints of fall and Halloween. As I don't have a ton of storage, I splurged on natural decor, that can be composted, not stored away!
 |
| Picked up some small. white pumpkins from the grocery store. |
 |
| Also found some gourds that were on sale at the grocer. |
 |
| Another white pumpkin as a paper weight. |
 |
| Add a splash of orange for fall...or I will keep them all year! |
 |
| Fall flowers. I love mums. |
Next up...carving pumpkins to decorate the exterior for the kiddies collecting treats! What is your fall favourite decor tricks?...or is it just the treats?
