Fall Decor

okay; I dont claim to be an amazing decorator or anything, but here's what I've done in my own home to decorate for fall on my budget! Of course, all thanks to hobby lobby.

Table. I love my lanters and glass cake dome. Perfect for filling up with fall decor; or any decor for that matter.

Fireplace. I like to keep it pretty clean and simple. Not too over the top. It would however, be amazing to get a fall wreath!

love, love, love my apothecary jars. I decorate them for all the holidays. Just add a few sparkly pumpkins

Got this little pumpkin at target for 50% off after Halloween!A few apples in my bell jar and a garland of leaves

Its the little touches that makes the atmosphere really come together. And of course, Pumpkin Marshmellow in my Scentsy Warmers! Love it. Happy fall! Now who's ready for Christmas?! I TOTALLY am!

My Easter Mantle

I finally found my Easter Tub! We're hosting Easter at our house on Saturday (plus an egg hunt for the kids), so I needed to get my Easter stuff up ASAP! My husband and I LOVE doing the kids Easter Baskets and getting tons of candy. We know its NOT what Easter is all about, and we certainly don't try to make it about the candy. But we do love our peanut butter eggs, up in the Twitty household!

Dont miss out on my cooking blog! Last posts; Chunky beef stew and Apple Ginger Pork Chops! HERE


Here are some pictures of my Easter mantle. I would love to get some more nests and eggs, but unless I find them SUPER cheap, i'm just too cheap to buy them.

1st birthday inspiration

Our babies first birthday is coming up in May. I CANT believe it; seriously. It makes me sad to think how big he's getting, but so happy and excited for each new stage with him! One of his favorite things is balls. So I think for his party, Im just going to get plates and stuff that are polka dots like ball pit balls, and go off that. He has a little ball pit, and I thought it would be cute to use the balls to decorate with. Also, I may fill a baby pool outside, with some ball pit balls. Here are some inspirational pictures! Come dream with me (because I'm too cheap to do anything close to these pictures! And lets face it; with 4 kids, a huge blow out expensive party just doesn't happen!)

Love these cupcake toppers

LOVE this cake! I wonder if I can do it....I like the apothecary jars with candy too! Im sure I can do that Love all the bright colors here Another super cute, not profesional, polka dot cake

Cute idea for cupcakes!

Now here's a cheap way to get polka dots; colored plates!

Love this.

Touches of Fall

Who says you can't decorate for fall with a Christmas tree?! Get some orange lights, and its just fine for fall!

I LOVE going to Hobby Lobby the day after Halloween, and picking up more pumpkins on sale. I have my eye on more white ones. :)

It's been quite a while since I blogged last. Things have obviously been busy with moving, unpacking, school starting, etc...
