Don’t you just love decorating your porch for fall? For me, this usually begins in August and I have to cycle through my pumpkins a couple of times. This year we had so many tiny pumpkins and the most beautiful mums I’ve ever seen! That giant purple one. Swoon.
We got the mums to decorate for my daughter’s first birthday party which was in October and the theme was pumpkin everything. We decorated with pumpkins and used a pink and orange color scheme. It was wonderful. I started decorating with pumpkins as soon as they hit the stores.
Does anyone else find inspiration in the target dollar spot? I know I can’t be the only one. We live next to the target with the absolute best dollar spot. It’s always stocked up with seasonal goodies and usually a line of Starbucks armed mamas are trying to squeeze in and find some treasure.
On one such treasure hunt last week I found favor with the dollar spot and came home with 2 packages of these snowballs. They were $3 each and came with 10 snowballs in each bag.
