Frugal Halloween decorating...
8:23 AM |

I am so excited to pull all of the decorations out for Halloween! We've already bought our costumes, and my 3.5 year old is begging to hit up the pumpkin patches!
One of the things on our To-do-List this weekend is to build theses Ballard design inspired shelves to go above the new buffet (will post pics soon!) We don't have a fire place (mantel) in our house so I plan on using these shelves to decorate as the seasons change. They seem pretty easy to do and my husband has graciously agreed to take on *most* of the work ;) Unfortunately I am the one in our marriage who seems to always underestimate every project we do (by cost and labor). So I've often said, "c'mon this will only take you a 1/2 hour, you won't miss a minute of the Ohio State game" (when in reality it takes up most of the afternoon). Oops.
Anyway, I've started to brainstorm a really cool Halloween inspired faux "mantel." I saw this FREE Halloween Subway Art Printable, from the The Girls at Eighteen 25's blog and fell in Love! I had it printed in 1-hour at Walmart in the 11x14 size (for around $6.00), and popped it in a frame that I already own. I can't wait to finish the rest of the decorations for theses shelves! I'll share when I do... hopefully by the end of the weekend if everything goes well..hehe.
What are you all decorating with this season?

Thanks a Latte: Frugal Thank you card.
Tonight during our power outage (yes, 95 degrees and we lost power for 2 hours!)...I decided to create a "Thank You" for a dear friend who really helped me out a few weeks ago. I saw this FREE PRINTABLE from the Girls at Eighteen 25's blog, and fell in love with it. I uploaded the template (5x7 size) and chose to have it printed in an hour at Walmart. Here is my finished product:
Here are a few supplies you might need:
~Above template printed in 5x7 format
~Starbuck's sleeve
(leftover from this morning's cup o'joe)
~Baker's twine (I ordered mine from www.etsy.com)
~Cardstock for mounting card
~Giftcard or other coffee house gift.
Turned out pretty cute! Again thanks to the Girls at Eighteen 25 for the awesome FREE Printable and tutorial!
I saved my pastry bag (excuse the wrinkles), but I thought this would be a cute "gift bag" for the card! Oh and I'm guessing the total for the card to be under $2.00!
