WOO!!! No posts in almost a month!


Ok so I know there has been no new post in almost a month and all I can say is life got busy with work and school. But I have started working on some plans for the holidays and cannot wait to share them with you all.

So please keep a look out for the holiday posts to come soon. I also have been changing up how I use my planner each day and I am planning on sharing that hopefully this week if not this coming weekend.


Stay tuned for a post soon!

Home Sweet Home: Halloween Decorations


October has begun and that means Halloween is only 3 weeks away so let the pumpkins, ghosts, and witches decorations come out to play. 

I personally love decorating for Halloween almost as much as I like decorating for Christmas. Lets face it Halloween in its own way kind of kicks off the holiday season. If you think about it after Halloween Thanksgiving is only 3 weeks away and for me you need all those days to prep and get ready for Thanksgiving. 

I decorate for Halloween this past weekend and wanted to share with you my take on simple decorations that don't go over the top but still add that Halloween pop to any room.


This first decoration is probably my favorite, this sits on top of my desk and is the first thing you see when you come in to the room. I got this candy sign from Gordmans I about two years ago I believe. I know they do not sell it anymore but they have tons of other cute Halloween decor items every year. It has three spots in the back for candles I just use the flameless led candles instead. Here is what it looks like lite up at night.

 This jar that sits on my dresser and holds my deodorant and current perfume is a long time favorite of mine. I am not sure where it is from but I have had it for a while. It comes with a white lid put I choose this time to go with out the lid. 


This beanie baby ghost sits on my bed for the month of October adding a pop of Halloween. I have had this since I was little. I know you can get them on ebay though.



The shoe and cat decoration I have had for while and could not tell you where they are from. The shoe sits by my TV and the cat sits on my night stand. The cat used to light up but has since just been a decoration piece. 


The top sign is one that I printed off Pinterest. If you type in Halloween Subway art you will find many different ones. The chalkboard one is just a chalkboard sign I got from Micheal's and took colored chalk and change it for the season or holiday. 

What is your favorite Halloween decoration?
