Welcome friends!
So as we embark on the last September weekend
and as Autumn embraces us all with its unique brand of
memory making, decorating, crafting and baking,
I thought it would be just wonderful to have a spot for
lots of Autumn crafty decor tips.
What's one of the best things ever about blogging?
Why, my blogger friends.
My blogging communities are simply the sharing-est,
most generous people around.
I feel I know them and
while I've been fortunate enough
to chat on the telephone with a few of them,
I know none of them
"in real life" as they say.
But ask away in a blogging group for ideas and wow.....
here's what you get~!
Over two dozen bloggers shared collectively....
30 different crafts, decor possibilities and freebies!
SO here you go:
From tablescapes to wreaths to mantles to wall hangings
to centerpieces and more!`
Enjoy!
I certainly did.
And now,
I think I'll be pretttttty busy trying to concoct
a few of these bold and intriguing projects.
I'm a huge dollar store fan, but
