DECK THE HALLS FRIDAY - SEE WHAT'S ON THE WAY!

WELCOME TO DECK THE HALLS FRIDAY!

Tis the season!  I am so in Christmas mode right now.  Yes, I do LOVE Thanksgiving but I can't help myself.  I admit that I did break out a couple Christmas decorations this week.  The space that held Halloween goodies must be filled, right?  Why pull out my everyday decor for a couple weeks?

This week I am excited to share the goodies I have on the way from Bethany Lowe...

 
These are some of my very favorite pieces and they should be here next week!  My plan have the SHOP updated by the end of next week, we'll see...

Has the Christmas Spirit caught you? 

 

Now it's your turn! What are you working on or thinking about? Each Friday join our DECK THE HALLS FRIDAY LINKY PARTY!

1. Share your pre-holiday goals, projects, great finds, collections, or gift ideas (doesn't need to have a Christmas theme), If you are a crafter or have any etsy store show off what you are working on

2. Create a new post or link back to a post from years past

3. Share a project you have been wanting to try (if it's not your original idea be sure to give gredit where credit is due)

4. Please link your post back to this one. If you would like grab the DECK THE HALLS image on my sidebar and added it to your sidebar or post (I will create an actual button one of these days...)

5. Be sure to add the link to your specific post and not your blog

and finally... INSPIRE & BE INSPIRED

PROPER THANK YOU & NEW ITEMS!

What a nice surprise when I got up this morning and saw that the fantastic Andrea over at FADED PLAINS mentioned me in her blog this morning! I am truly honored that she thought her readers might like my shop. Be sure to check out all of the wonderful treasures she has in her shop and blog, if you love the vintage farmhouse style than you will love FADED PLAINS!

While unpacking my fall decorations I came across 2 great retired pieces from Bethany Lowe Designs. About six years ago I was working in an adorable little shop where I also rented space to sell my own goods and fell in LOVE with Bethany Lowe Designs. That fall I ordered some pieces to sell and I happened to find 2 pieces that I never put out! You can find them in my eBay store.

First is PUMPKINHEAD WITH PARTY HAT by Dee Foust. He has long been one of my favorite pieces!

Second is BOY IN DEVIL COSTUME. So cute! I just love his sweet face and his pumpkin wagon.

Don't forget there is still time to take advantage of the FREE SHIPPING offer on any order placed before Sept. 15th. Before you pay for your item email me telling me that you have read my blog and I will adjust your invoice. Offer is only for shipping within the US for Alaska, Hawaii and international orders I will be happy to offer a discounted rate.

I hope you are having a great week, Wednesday already, I LOVE holiday weeks!

Best wishes,
Tammy

Thanks again, Andrea!

HALLOWEEN TIME!

DON'T MISS OUT! OUR SUMMER SALE IS STILL GOING ON!

Every year at this time I am at a loss. I take down some of my 4th of July decorations and can't wait to decorate for fall...the stores are filling up with back to school clothes and some are even begining to display fall and halloween decorations. I can hardly wait for September 1st, my official it is time to decorate for fall day!!! Yesterday I added more Halloween items to the store, some even on sale. Yes it is early but why not treat yourself so when September 1st rolls around you can get started on your own decorating!

Here is a sneak peek at a couple of my favorites.

I just adore this large Treat Cone by Dee Foust (to be honest I just LOVE cones...)

Vintage inspired candleholders, the images are wonderful!

One of Nicol Sayre's sweetest Halloween pieces "Black Cat Ride"

Sadly, Nicol Sayre is no longer creating pieces for Seasons of Cannon Falls so there are no new pieces for 2009.

He is my VERY favorite Halloween piece, a wonderful reproduction!

Be sure to visit my my eBay store for lots of other great pieces for Halloween, I am continuing to add pieces daily so be sure to check back often. This week I brought back some wonderful Spring pieces at discounted prices, more Halloween, new sale prices on select Americana pieces, and later this week look for some additonal pieces for Christmas.

Best wishes,

Tammy

4th OF JULY PARTY - FINALLY...

DON'T FORGET THE SUMMER SALE IS STILL GOING ON!

Where has this week gone? I promised pics of our 4th of July so here they are, better late than never... I finally found my camera charger so I have lots of pics to share!

Hall table welcomed guests

Appetizers in the dining room

Tables - we also brought in a kids table that we set in the hall between the two rooms it couldn't have worked out any better. I can't believe we fit 18 people for dinner! (Ignore the yucky peach walls they will change in time, right now with the aqua in the dining room it looks like Miami Vice!)

Centerpieces

We had SO much food! I missed a pic of the meat and dessert - bummer. It was GOOD!

My new mirror from Homegoods that hangs in the family room

My feather tree, I think it turned out great this year!

I have said it before I LOVE this guy. (There is still one available and he is on sale!)

LOVING these mini lanterns

I had this STAR ornament everywhere this year. Love the size and the glitter!

I hope to write more next week, things are getting back to normal. New items and markdowns coming next week!

Have a great weekend!

Best wishes,
Tammy
