October = HaLlOwEeN!!!

Oh How I LOVE FALL!!!! I love the Smell. I love the Weather. I love the Feeling. I love the Food. And most of all I love the Decorations!

The Last few days that i've been home sick I've had a lot of time to look at all my favorite crafting blogs! There are SO many CUTE and EASY things to make! I've been filling my notebook and file folders with all these fun ideas, tutorials and pictures of ways to decorate and make my home all festive for halloween!

Jordan and I LOVE HALLOWEEN! It is one of our favoritest holidays! Ok, Maybe its our favorite! I do love christmas though! But there are so many fun things to do in this area and so many fun ways to make your home feel spooky!!!!

I decided to share with you all of the cute idea's that I have found and hopefully get to a few of them for this halloween! I've written down a few that are easy and cheap that im pretty sure i'll be able to get to this month! Cheap is a good thing, one cause we are for sure moving into our new home this week and next and easy because I don't have a lot of time, but WILL make time!

I Love it when I go into someones home that is decorated for the season! It just makes me smile! Well, it also just sparks creativity in my mind and then makes me want to make my home just as cute! I've been dying to do crafts the last few months, one because work is just taking it all out of me and I need something different and two, I've just neglected that talent that I have!

All of these ideas are from SEVERAL Blogs that I have been looking at and I for sure have written ALL of them down so I can give credit to all of these amazingly talented women! I want to share a few of the sites with all of you who check out my blog and want to spark some creativity into your homes!

These cute "BOO" Blocks are made over at Family of Savages She has a few for Thanksgiving and Christmas as well that I LOVE and hope to be able to make! I love block letters! You can do so many different colors and add soo many different embelishments to make them just your own!

I LOVE halloween candy! I'm not sure where I found these cute little topiary's! They are pretty simple to assemple but they look so yummy and so halloween! That's what it's all about right! Dressing up and going to getting all the candy you can possibly get and then get sick! lol I remember several years ago filling my pillowcase and then eating all the candy until i got sick! Then repeating the next day!

This sign is just cute! Something to hang inside or out! Super easy and cheap! Again not sure which site I got it from but I did write it down somewhere and will for sure find it when I do get to making it!

Here is just a cute way to decorate a table! Super easy! Get a few pumpkins, fill a few jars with candy and candles and put out a cute table runner and well..you have a perfect halloween themed table runner!

This....I...LOVE! Over at Sassy Sanctuary she made this ADORABLE Halloween Rag Wreath which I am FOR SURE going to copy! ;-) I love the colors, I love the rag look and I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! :-) Do you think I like it????? Don't answer that!! She has a lot of other cute crafts and ideas!

This is actually a pictre from Pottery Barn! I love theme! I have a lot of silver things and I always wonder if i'll be able to decorate with them and honestly I don't know why I wonder! Every decorating magazine or site I see has silver everywhere! But then agian I would LOVE to remake this in my own way and my own price of course! Just love the theme!

Now, I found this at A Pumpkin and a Princess Super easy, Super Cheap! All you need is a pot and saucer, glass vase, small wood knob, black spray paint, hot glue, candy and ribbon! You can do it in any theme you want! I'm going to so one for halloween and christmas, and probably easter and valentines day! lol! You can buy most of the stuff from the dollar store! Super cute!!

I LOVE these banners! They are so versitle. You can do any color. You can put letters, or pictures or nothing! You can add embelishments ribbons, oh my SOO much! Super easy, and of course scrapbooky, which I lOVE! I will be making a halloween one! I have a fall one I made last year and most likely will be making a christmas one as well! YAY! I found these at Crafty Sisters They have A LOT of cute ideas as well!

Ok so you think you have to spend and arm and a leg for apocraphy jars right? I have! I want several and only have a few! They are so necesary when decorating a home! Well, now you can make some from the dollar store! They are all over blogs, everyone is teaching how to make them! All you need is a candle holder and then a vase and then you hot glue them together and bam...You have a homemade $2-3 apocraphy jar! Fill and decorate!

Well, Now that i've overwhelmed myself with SO many fabolous ideas, which i'm also sure i'll find more and soon be seeing Thanksgiving and Christmas EVERYWHERE as well, I still WILL get a few of these cute and simple ideas done and have our new little house decorated before Halloween falls upon us!

This week Jordan's sister Melissa and Husband Aaron are coming for a week with there three kids Avery, Hayden and Landon from St. Louis, MS! They've been having some car trouble, but later rather then sooner they should arrive and we have tons of fun things planned to do with them! We also are taking family photo's this week and so i'm sure we'll be putting them up soon as well!

Here is a picture of our family from 2008! This was taken before Jordan and I even got married! Good thing we stayed together right! lol! Anyways I love Jordan's family and I can't wait to spend time with them this week!

Then next week we will be in our new home! I'll be spending time decorating and organzing and making it our new home! We will be out with our horses and dogs, so they will love us being out there with them! We will have more time to spend with them and give them all the attention they need! Also Jordan and I will be able to be a couple agian and be on our own, which we are very ready for! We are SO THANKFUL for my parents and all that they have done for us while we have been living with them! I will miss seeing them EVERYDAY, but we are just moving 5 min away!

Happy October!

Love,

The Landons
