I am decorating for fall. I started the same day as the last post, and it has kept me busy. I think it is a great idea to just go ahead and decorate. Plus I woke up this morning to very cool weather. I am wearing long sleeves, so therefore fall decorating is completely appropriate.
I brought all my fall decorations down out the attic alone, and paid the price by having my eye swell. I am very allergic to dust. I haven’t had swelling from dust since my freshman year of college. It stinks to have my eye swell. I am a big baby and cannot put eye drops in my eyes. Someone always has to put them into my eye for me. Thank goodness Michael’s cousin lives close and is a student. She was able to come over and help me! So, I am alive this morning with normal eyes and just a little itchiness on my arms. It is just something I live with daily. It didn’t stop me from wanting to decorate.
Every year I add new decorations. I decided I wanted to be crafty this year. I got on the Queen of Crafty’s website, Martha Stewart, and came up with some project ideas. Most of these ideas involved glitter! The first project I did involved picture frames. I have tons of unused frames. Check out the how to on those frames at Martha’s website Glitter Frames. I made six of them and used the templates on her website. I also made some pumpkin jars. I am going to put candy in them and it was much easier and cleaner than the glitter frames. Jar-o-Lanterns how to. Now here are the ones I made:
